Abstract/Notes: This study compared the motivation and quality of experience of demographically matched students from Montessori and traditional middle school programs. Approximately 290 students responded to the Experience Sampling Method (ESM) and filled out questionnaires. Multivariate analyses showed that the Montessori students reported greater affect, potency (i.e., feeling energetic), intrinsic motivation, flow experience, and undivided interest (i.e., the combination of high intrinsic motivation and high salience or importance) while engaged in academic activities at school. The traditional middle school students reported higher salience while doing academic work; however, such responses were often accompanied by low intrinsic motivation. When engaged in informal, nonacademic activities, the students in both school contexts reported similar experiences. These results are discussed in terms of current thought on motivation in education and middle school reform.

Abstract/Notes: Ushbu maqolada Maktabgacha ta’lim tashkilotlarida Montessori muhitini yaratishning shart -sharoitlari va o’ziga xosligi haqida so’z borgan.Doktor Montessori shunday degan edi: "Bolalar 3 dan 6 yoshgacha, 6 dan 9 yoshgacha va 9 yoshdan 12 yoshgacha bo'lgan guruhga joylashtirilishi kerak. Oddiy maktablarda bo'lgani kabi, faqat o'sha yoshdagi bolalarni sinflarga taklif qilmayman.Ko'pchilik, masalan, 3 yoshdan 6 yoshgacha bo'lgan bolalarni xonaga joylashtiraman, deb hisoblashadi, chunki menda uchta alohida xonani yaratish uchun yetarli xona yoki yetarli darajada bolalar yo'q. Garchi mingdan oshiq bola va juda katta bino bo'lsa ham, men uch yoshga to'lgan bolalarni bir guruhga qo'shib berishni istardim". Bolalar uzluksiz ta'lim va rivojlanish jarayonini amalga oshirish uchun guruhlarga joylashtiriladi.

Effects of Variations in the Nursery School Setting on Environmental Constraints and Children's Modes of Adaptation

Available from: JSTOR

Publication: Child Development, vol. 42, no. 3

Pages: 839-869

See More

Abstract/Notes: This study asked how specific characteristics of preschool settings affect the naturalistic occurrence of environmental constraints and children's adaptations to them. A taxonomy of 7 varieties of constraints invented by Jackson and Wolfson (1968) and a taxonomy of 14 adaptations were used. The constraints conformed to Schoggen's (1963) definition of conflict environmental force units (conflict EFU). 2 middle-class nursery schools and 2 Head Start programs were studied. These environments enabled the effects of several ecological variables- structure of the daily program, spaciousness of the schoolroom, and teacher-children ratio-and several personal variables-age, sex, and social class -on the incidence of conflict EFU and adaptations to be determined. Differential linkages of the adaptations with varieties of conflict EFU were also examined. The environmental variable which differentiated preschool settings was the program structure, and significant effects for age, sex, and social class were also found.
