1. Interacting with each other is vital in creating new experiences
2. Experience
2.1. Educational experiences are a result of two fundamental principles: continuity and integration
2.2. Experience is an overlap that involves the interaction between the internal and external conditions.
2.3. Future experiences stems off of the quality of an experience an individual once had
2.3.1. A learner will take the experience in their own individual way, ones experience will be different than someone else's due to perspective and personal growth
2.4. Experience leads to growth as there will be measurable outcome
2.4.1. Experience is the key to transmission of knowledge
3. Growth
3.1. Growth or growing as developing not only physically but intellectually and morally is one exemplification of the principal of continuity
3.1.1. Trial and error is a vital way of learning new concepts and ideas
3.2. Growth is learning from experience
3.2.1. A miseducated experience hinders growth of future experiences
3.3. The concept of growth is not absolute, its goal is the continuous growth of the self in terms of social, moral and intellectual ways.
4. Interaction
4.1. For those who learn through action and repetition, social interaction with other learners may be useful for development and education.
4.1.1. Unless education is interactive - connecting all aspects of living - it may be deemed useless in daily life
4.2. Dewey states how important the principle of interaction is in the future of teaching and learning, as society attempts to move away from traditional non-adaptive education.
5. Educators teach students and express ways of learning to create experiences which overall will help them grow as people and as students
6. Freedom
6.1. Freedom of intelligence - “freedom of observation and judgment exercised on behalf of purposes that are intrinsically worthwhile".
6.2. Freedom for the student to achieve goals that serve them.
6.2.1. This allows room for Independence and choice
6.2.2. One is more likely to feel free if there is no fear in a situation
7. Its a democratic affair between the teacher and the student
8. Freedom allows a teacher or an educator to have a more thorough understanding of their student.
9. Flexible enough to permit free play for individual experience and yet firm enough to give direction towards continuous development
10. Opportunities and situations we are put in allow room for growth to acquire new information and allows for more unique situations to be presented, which overall allows students to grow from those situations
11. Re-organizing and reformulating the continuity of past experiences to create new experiences that allow room for growth
12. Continuity
12.1. Continuity is carried over from the earlier to the later ones
12.1.1. It is when we note the different forms in which continuity of experience operates that we get the basis of discriminating among experiences
12.2. The principle of continuity in its educational application means the future has to be taken into account at every stage of the educational process
12.2.1. Continuity of educational experience requires that equal thought and attention be given to the solution of this aspect of the educational problem
13. Situation
13.1. The world is changing, so the way of learning is situational to the current environment.
13.1.1. Everything related to education should be situational according to the current environment and background.
13.2. A learning situation is a condition or environment in which all the elements necessary for promoting learning are present
13.2.1. The educator should have different methods of teaching depending on the students current situations
