Abstract

This essay offers a process approach to education and curricular reform. Process thought is a bridge-building tradition.  It builds bridges between east and west, science and sprituality, ecology and economics, education and creativity, and tradition and modernity.  Many of planks of this bridge come from the philosophy of Alfred North Whitehead, but some plans come from other cultural and intellectual traditions.  Indeed, some of the planks are being made by people in different parts of the world as I write these words,  Process thought is in process.  Process thought, then, can be compared to a novel in the act of being created.  Its first and founding chapters were written by Whitehead, and most process thinkers appeal to these early chapters as the foundations of their thinking.  These early chapters consist of core ideas found in Whitehead's mature works: Science and the Modern World (1925); Religion in the Making (1926); The Aims of Education and Other Essays (1929); Process and Reality (1929); Adventures of Ideas (1933); Nature and Life (1934); and Modes of Thought (1938).
