I wish it was more of an engagement with the public than writing for the public but as an admirer of Dewey I appreciate the attempt to rethink contemporary academic philosophy in terms of more pressing public interests. I disagree with Chris Long that merely studying philosophy (as it is now practiced) will provide the kinds of cultivated/reflexive habits make one a better, more mature, person/citizen but I do think that there are calls to (even prototypes for )such maturation/individuation in works like that of the later Foucault and recently folks like Paul Rabinow, Latour, Stengers, Stiegler, and the post-wittgenstein enactivists.
have you read any of Donald Schon’s work on developing reflective practitioners? What if we took Dewey’s idea of school as lab (or say design studio) to higher-ed and turned the whole university (dorms, cafeteria, student govts, power plants, etc) into experimental learning projects?
