Abstract/Notes: The penetration of Maria Montessori’s ideas in Switzerland is a typical case of a pedagogical transfer process. Since 1908, when the kindergarten inspector of Canton Ticino (italianspeaking Switzerland) Teresa Bontempi came in direct contact with Maria Montessori, there was a Montessori-network based on Ticino’s kindergarten system and on the Società Umanitaria (a socialist philanthropic foundation which organised the first Montessori-kindergartens in Milan). Teresa Bontempi’s early contacts with the Società Umanitaria made possible the introduction of Montessori’s method in all kindergartens in Ticino, and allowed the Umanitaria to have a good training for its kindergarten-teachers (trained by Teresa Bontempi herself). In 1913 the Institut Jean-Jacques Rousseau (Geneva) joined the network. People moved then between different parts of the network, e.g. from the Institut Jean-Jacques Rousseau to Teresa Bontempi’s courses in Bellinzona (Ticino), or from Ticino to the Umanitaria’s kindergartens in Italy. The network extended its influence also to german-speaking Switzerland. Maria Montessori herself was in direct contact with the network; in different moments, however, her attitude towards it changed deeply. In a first time, for example, she considered Teresa Bontempi a trustful partner for the penetration of her ideas in Switzerland; later she considered her a concurrent and blamed her for not using with fidelity the Montessori method. In 1932 Maria Montessori visited Switzerland for several public lessons, totally neglecting her consolidated local network. In the same year she founded, with the help of other, more orthodox but not locally anchored people, the Swiss Montessori Association. The Montessori method, after having a big number of followers, was soon marginalized and never regained the importance it had in the period from 1908 to 1931.

Abstract/Notes: Die hier ermöglichten Schaffensprozesse kombiniert mit dem kindlichen kreativen Potenzial sind die Basis für künstlerisch aktive Kinder. Bildnerisches Gestalten als wichtige kindliche Ausdrucksform, Unterstützung der feinmotorischen Koordination, Wecken von Experimentierfreude und Entdecken des eigenen Gefühls für Ästhetik sind Notwendigkeiten für die Kreativität. [The creative processes made possible here combined with the child's creative potential are the basis for artistically active children. Artistic design as an important form of expression for children, support for fine motor coordination, arousing the willingness to experiment and discovering one's own feeling for aesthetics are necessities for creativity.]

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.
