The study aims at discerning and clarifying confusions concerning Dewey’s “education as life”, which is interpreted by “characters analyses”, and attempts to interpret the true implications “education as life” in accordance with the outlooks of “holistic context” and the “fundamental spirits of Dewey’s experiential philosophy” (continuity and interaction). The findings of the study are as follows: 1. According to the spirits of continuity and interaction of Dewey’s experiential philosophy, “education as life” should be interpreted as an active interaction between education and life: education facilitates the promotion of quality of life, and which can also promote educational effects. 2. According to holistic context, “education as life” should be interpreted as education based on the life experiences of children, and the main job of teachers is to help children connect with their life experience.
