Abstract/Notes: While our study focused only on South Carolina, it is safe to assume that at least some of these issues, and probably others, exist in other states as well. Because we are focusing on challenges and barriers, it may give the impression that the overall study findings were negative. Exacerbating this problem is that very few Montessori teachers in South Carolina express interest in moving into administrative positions, reducing the pool of potential administrators qualified to run a Montessori program. [...]few hired principals that come into Montessori schools have Montessori credentials or experience in Montessori classrooms or schools. Offer more professional development and training certificates. * Provide funds for Montessori administrators to enter a training program offering a Montessori Administrative credential. * Offer a user-friendly and low-cost online course on the basics of Montessori. 2. Provide more opportunities for networking/mentoring. * Form online groups for Montessori public school principals. * Assign experienced Montessori principals to mentor new Montessori principals. * Conduct periodic, regional meetings of Montessori administrators for networking and idea sharing. 2 THE EMPHASIS ON STATE STANDARDS VERSUS FOLLOWING THE MONTESSORI CURRICULUM While most South Carolina public Montessori teachers agreed that they were able to implement authentic Montessori while incorporating state standards, and over three-quarters of teachers reported using the Montessori curriculum/sequence training as their foremost teaching guide, nearly half of all teachers reported that their schools required them to use a pacing guide for following standards and benchmark testing.

Abstract/Notes: As the prologue to the research of early childhood education and care in Southern Europe, I noted the schools at Sagrada Familia in Catalunya following Montessori Method. Gaudi built the Schools at Sagrada Familia around 1909, mainly with the goal of providing schooling for children in the neighborhood growing up around the Temple and for the children of the people working on the site, expanding beyond the professional and personal knowledge of the parents to give their children more culture. The teaching style chosen was new and broke with all the old educational methods, following the new teaching methods of Maria Montessori. The most distinctive thing about the architecture of this building is its wavy facades. The walls and roof transformed the traditional technique of fl at brick vaults because, as the schools set out to open up new paths in teaching, so did Gaudi with his new architecture.
