The theoretical foundations of the transformation document are It seeks the connection between the making,finding and geing situation. The common point in Dewey's point of view and the theoretical foundations of the transformation document is the rejection of any presuppositions and predicted rules, as well as attention to the holistic view of the concept of situation, but what can be pointed out as a point of distinction and difference is the theoretical foundations of the transformation document. It has a trans-situational, unitary and monotheistic approach, also the situation is subject to criteria in the basics, but John Dewey's view lacks a trans-situational view and is enclosed in the empiricism approach.
