Finding Roots in the Montessori Social Studies Curriculum
Available from: St. Catherine University

Abstract/Notes: This action research aimed to determine if an equity audit of the Montessori social studies curriculum and learning about the researcher’s culture impacted professional self-efficacy and resilience. This six-week intervention and study was a self-study through daily regimented activities. Three weeks were used to learn more about the researcher’s own culture and history. Three additional weeks were dedicated to the equity audit process, where the researcher revised original lessons or created new, culturally sustaining lessons to augment the curriculum. The data collected was completed daily using four tools: an attitude scale, a guided questionnaire, a reflective journal, and finally during the three-week audit period, a curriculum audit checklist. The data suggested strong levels of self-efficacy and resilience across the intervention, though resilience wavered and lowered throughout due to its taxing nature. Additional supports and research can better support educators of color prepare for altering and implementing a culturally sustaining and anti-bias, antiracist Montessori social studies curriculum.

Abstract/Notes: In this study, we examined communication in the family and peer systems in relation to children's sociometric status. Codes measured turn-taking skills and utterance types for 43 children (ages 24-60 months) with mothers, fathers, and peers. Communication differences in the family and peer systems were strongest for popular versus rejected status children and their parents, but differences were also found for controversial and neglected status children and their parents. Rejected status children demonstrated turn-taking styles that included irrelevant turns, interruptions, simultaneous talking, and noncontingent responding. Parents of rejected children used higher proportions of requests than parents of popular children but failed to allow their children time to respond to the requests. Popular status children were more likely to alternate turns, provide explanations to peers, and participate in episodes of cohesive discourse. Interaction patterns were examined for potential mechanisms of transfer between family and peer systems.

Abstract/Notes: Il Metodo sperimentato da Maria Montessori fra la fine dell’Ottocento e la metà del Novecento è oggi sempre più richiesto e apprezzato da genitori e insegnanti, ed è soggetto a rinnovate letture e ricerche da parte degli studiosi, perché risponde alle attuali esigenze dell'educazione nella nuova realtà sociale multietnica, nell'era della 'globalizzazione'. Tutto il suo metodo scientifico rappresenta una strada maestra per gli educatori alla pace e all'intercultura di oggi. / The method pioneered by Maria Montessori in the late 800's and mid '900 is now increasingly demanded and appreciated by parents and teachers. Subject of renewed interpretations and ongoing research by scholars, it responds to the current needs of education in the new multi-ethnic reality of the age of 'globalization'. Her whole scientific method represents a major reference for today's educators to peace and inter-culture
