Chapter 2. The Impress (excerpts)"Wundt's second major contribution to psychology's preempting of education wasn't theoretical at all: he produced the first generation of researchers, professors, and publicists in the new psychology. This group went on to establish experimental psychology throughout Europe and the United States:
"The list of Wundt's students is a Who's Who early European and American psychologists. I succeeding years, one could go to almost an major European or American university and stud the new psychology with a professor who had received his Ph.D. directly from Wundt at Leipzig.
"The young Americans who studied with Wundt returned to found departments of psychology throughout the United States. With the prestige attached to having studied in Germany, these men found little difficulty in securing positions of influence at major American universities.

He believed that learning occurred only through experience, that the stimulus-response mechanism was basic to learning, and that teachers were not instructors, but designers of learning experiences." "...Dewey was able to promote the interchangeability of psychology and education." "Yet Dewey, the "Father of American Education", was only one of the practitioners of Wundt's revised psychology who critically transformed American education and, consequently, American life.
