Abstract/Notes: This paper is aimed to present the analysis of the current situation of the studies on the Montessori Method in primary schools. This study adopted a meta-synthesis design to interpret and evaluate the qualitative findings of the studies and to point out their similarities and differences to make further interpretations. Data collection started on August 1, 2020 was completed May 30, 2021. The sample consisted of 16 studies.The data were analyzed using inductive content analysis. The studies were summarized under the headings of subject matter, design, data collection tools, objective/significance, results and recommendations. As for subject matters, the studies did an in-depth analysis of the Montessori Method, examined school atmosphere, provided detailed information on learning environments, and compared the Montessori Method to other models. The studies employed data triangulation to ensure credibility and consistency. The samples of the studies consisted of first-grade students, teachers, and documents. The studies did not address the Montessori Method in different branches. The Montessori Method has something in common with other methods, which is “World Citizenship.” The Montessori Method is based on individual assessment. The findings were discussed throughly literature and various suggestions were made. / Bu araştırmada ilkokulda Montessori modelini inceleyen çalışmaların mevcut durumunun analizinin ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmada çalışmaların nitel bulgularının yorumlanması, değerlendirilmesi, benzer, farklı yönlerinin ortaya koyulup yeni çıkarımların yapılmasını amaçlayan meta-sentez yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Verilerin toplanmasına 1 Ağustos 2020 tarihinde başlanmış, 30 Mayıs 2021'de veri toplama süreci tamamlanmıştır. 16 çalışma veri analiz sürecine dahil edilmiştir. Veri çözümlemesi için tümevarımsal içerik analiz yöntemi belirlenmiş, çalışmalar konu alanları, yöntem, veri analizi, elde edilen sonuçlar ve elde edilen sonuçlara yönelik öneriler başlıkları altında özetlenmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucunda ilkokulda yapılan Montessori temelli çalışmaların konu alanlarında Montessori modelinin derinleştirilmesi, okul atmosferinin incelenmesi, öğrenme ortamının detaylandırılması ve diğer alanlarla kıyaslandığı görülmüştür. Çalışmalarda inanırlık ve tutarlılığın yüksek tutulması için veri üçlemesine önem verildiği, çalışma gruplarının ise ilkokul 1. sınıf öğrencileri, öğretmenleri ve dokümanın olduğu saptanmıştır. Araştırmada Montessori modelinin diğer alternatif yöntemlerle ortak yanının “Dünya Vatandaşlığı” kavramı olması, bireysel değerlendirmelere önem verişiyle ön planda olduğu görülmüştür. Elde edilen bulgular literatür ışığında tartışılmış ve çeşitli önerilerde bulunulmuştur.

Abstract/Notes: The study investigated the effects of school environment and methods of teaching on language skills achievement of pre – primary school pupils in Edo State. It also investigated the interaction effects of Montessori and played methods and urban and rural environments on pupils' achievement in listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. Three urban and three rural areas which were selected from two Local Government Areas (LGAs) were used for the study. Six pre - primary schools were purposively selected for the study. A total of 228 kindergartens 2 pupils intact classes were used for the study which lasted for eight weeks. The study was a pretest, posttest, quasi- experimental control group design with independent variables as methods and school location while achievement in Language Skills Achievement Test (LSAT) was the dependent variable. Descriptive statistics and Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) were used to analyze the data obtained while the Multiple Classification Analysis (MCA) was used as post-hoc test for further significance. Three research questions were answered with three hypotheses, tested at 0.05 level of significance. Results showed that the Montessori Method of teaching pre –primary pupils was more effective than the play method. Similarly, urban school pupils achieved higher than their rural counterparts. There was also a significant interaction effect of methods and school location on pupils' academic achievement in Language skills. It was therefore recommended that the Nigerian Government should adopt the Montessori Method as a dominant method of teaching pre – primary school pupils and that pre – primary school owners should provide materials adequately for teaching and learning.

Abstract/Notes: The aim of the research was to compare the assessment methods of state schools andthose of some alternative schools and examine the opinions and estimates of teacherson the possibility and need to implement assessment methods from some alternativeschools into state schools. The purpose of the paper is to enhance existing assessmentmethods in state schools. The longitudinal research was carried out in five alternativeschools and in state schools in the city of Zagreb. Triangulation methodology wasapplied. Seventeen participants were included in the qualitative phase of the researchcarried out in 2011 while the sample in the quantitative phase of the research in 2018comprised 159 participants. The first phase collected data using the case study andinterview, while a questionnaire - Assessment models and methods - was developedfor the second phase. The research did not show significant differences in opinionsbetween teachers regarding the same assessment methods seven years later. The resultsshow that teachers in alternative schools give a more positive estimate of the possibilityand need for implementation. The existing manner of assessment and evaluation instate schools should be modernized with alternative methods such as the yearly report,portfolio and Montessori materials.Keywords: alternative schools; assessment and evaluation; primary education, specificassessment methods; state schools.---SažetakCilj istraživanja bio je usporediti dokimološka rješenja u državnim i nekimalternativnim školama te ispitati mišljenja i procjene učitelja o mogućnosti i potrebiimplementacije dokimoloških rješenja iz nekih alternativnih škola u državne škole.Svrha rada jest unaprjeđenje postojećih dokimoloških rješenja u državnim školama.Istraživanje je longitudinalno i provedeno je u pet alternativnih i u državnimškolama u gradu Zagrebu. Korištena je metodološka triangulacija. U kvalitativnojfazi istraživanja iz 2011. godine, sudjelovalo je 17 ispitanika, a u kvantitativnoj faziistraživanja 2018. godine, 159 ispitanika. U prvoj fazi za prikupljanje podatakakorištena je studija slučaja i intervju, a za drugu je konstruiran anketni upitnik- Dokimološki modeli i rješenja. Ispitivanje nije pokazalo značajnije razlike umišljenjima učiteljica i učitelja o istim dokimološkim rješenjima 7 godina kasnije.Rezultati pokazuju kako učitelji alternativnih škola pozitivnije procjenjuju mogućnosti potrebu implementacije, a postojeće načine praćenja i ocjenjivanja u državnojškoli treba osuvremeniti alternativnim dokimološkim rješenjima poput godišnjegaizvještaja, portfolija i Montessori materijala.Ključne riječi: alternativne škole; državne škole; praćenje i ocjenjivanje; primarnoobrazovanje; specifična dokimološka rješenja.
