Abstract/Notes: Montessori is a learning method to stimulate children to reach their potential in all fields. In the field of reading literacy, one of the initial stages is how to stimulate initial reading skills, starting with introducing letters using the syllable learning method. The stimulation process must be in a fun and not boring way of playing exploration so that children will not feel that they are learning, especially in the current state of the Covid-19 pandemic, where the learning process becomes boring for children because it has to be done at home. The purpose of this research is to create a learning technology in the form of an electronic puzzle Montessori Sand Board Letter (SBL) for Indonesian syllables that can help stimulate early childhood according to the Montessori principle in recognizing syllables. The system development method uses the System Development Life-Cycle (SDLC) method. Based on the results of functional testing using the black box method, it states that all functional systems function 100% according to design and objectives. The results of testing and validation by Montessori practitioners stated that the system was in accordance with Montessori rules. Based on the results of usage observations, the Montessori Sand Board Letter (SBL) electronic puzzle for Indonesian syllables can be an alternative learning tool to introduce Indonesian syllables for the initial reading learning process. / Montessori merupakan salah satu metode pembelajaran untuk menstimulasi anak dalam meraih potensinya di segala bidang. Pada bidang literasi membaca salah satu tahapan awal adalah bagaimana menstimulasi kemampuan membaca permulaan, dimulai dengan mengenalkan huruf-huruf menggunakan metode belajar suku kata. Proses stimulasi tersebut haruslah dengan cara eksplorasi bermain yang menyenangkan dan tidak membosankan sehingga anak tidak akan merasa bahwa ia sedang belajar, apalagi dalam kondisi pandemi Covid-19 yang masih berlangsung hingga saat ini, dimana proses belajar menjadi membosankan bagi anak karena harus dilakukan di rumah saja. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah membuat sebuah teknologi pembelajaran berupa puzzle elektronik Montessori Sand Board Letter (SBL) untuk suku kata Bahasa Indonesia yang dapat membantu menstimulasi anak usia dini sesuai prinsip Montessori dalam mengenal suku kata. Metode pengembangan sistem menggunakan Metode Sistem Development Life-Cycle (SDLC). Berdasarkan hasil pengujian fungsional menggunakan metode black box menyatakan bahwa seluruh fungsional sistem berfungsi 100% sesuai perancangan dan tujuan. Hasil pengujian dan validasi oleh praktisi Montessori menyatakan bahwa sistem telah sesuai dengan kaidah Montessori. Berdasarkan hasil observasi penggunaan, Puzzle elektronik Montessori Sand Board Letter (SBL) untuk suku kata Bahasa Indonesia dapat menjadi salah satu alternative tools pembelajaran mengenalkan suku kata Bahasa Indonesia untuk proses belajar membaca permulaan.

Abstract/Notes: Apresenta-se aqui o resultado da pesquisa feita numa escola de educação infantil e ensino fundamental de São José (SC) que objetivou verificar as contribuições da pedagogia Montessori às dimensões da escola como um espaço educador sustentável (EES). Revisitaram-se as ideias de educadores que pensaram uma escola à realidade da educação de seu tempo histórico e cultural, especialmente as de Maria Montessori. Na educação ambiental, destacaram-se a sustentabilidade, a escola sustentável e o nosso modo de ser, estar e permanecer na “casa de vida”, sob o olhar de Sauvé, Sato e outros. Ancorou-se em Foucault, com seu entendimento sobre os discursos de verdade, e em Bachelard, que interligou ciência e arte. A pesquisa evidenciou que a escola em foco está em processo de transição de constituir um EES quanto à dimensão do currículo, do projeto político pedagógico e da interação escola-comunidade e em virtude de seus caminhos e escolhas, entretanto algumas limitações existem, principalmente no espaço arquitetônico. Nas falas da comunidade escolar, viu-se que a escola busca criar seu próprio caminho, suas próprias estradas, e, embora não apresente total consonância entre sua proposta e os objetivos do Programa Nacional Escolas Sustentáveis, ambos possuem aspectos em comum. Concluiu-se que o projeto do centro educacional continua se efetivando entre saberes e fazeres da pedagogia Montessori. [We present here the result of a research carried out in a kindergarten and elementary school in São José (SC) which aimed to verify the contributions of Montessori pedagogy to the dimensions of the school as a sustainable educational space (EES). The ideas of educators who thought a school to the reality of education in its historical and cultural time were revisited, especially those of Maria Montessori. In environmental education, sustainability, the sustainable school and our way of being, being and staying in the “home of life” were highlighted, under the eyes of Sauvé, Sato and others. It was based on Foucault, with his understanding of truth discourses, and on Bachelard, who linked science and art. The research showed that the school in focus is in a transition process of constituting an EES regarding the dimension of the curriculum, the pedagogical political project and the school-community interaction and due to its paths and choices, however some limitations exist, mainly in the space architectural. In the speeches of the school community, it was seen that the school seeks to create its own path, its own roads, and, although it does not present total consonance between its proposal and the objectives of the Sustainable Schools National Program, both have aspects in common. It was concluded that the project of the educational center continues to be carried out between the knowledge and practices of Montessori pedagogy.]

Abstract/Notes: Bu çalışmada, Montessori sınıflarında görev yapan okul öncesi öğretmenlerinin Montessori yaklaşımına ilişkin görüşlerinin (Amerika ve Türkiye örneğinde) incelenmesi ve okul öncesi öğretmenlerinin görüşlerine göre Montessori yaklaşımının farklı, güçlü ve zorlayıcı olarak görülen yanlarının ortaya konması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma grubu, Montessori sınıfında görev yapmakta olan Amerika (n=3) ve Türkiye (n=6) örneğindeki toplamda 9 okul öncesi öğretmeninden oluşmaktadır. Çalışma grubundaki öğretmenler Montessori eğitmenliği sertifikasına sahip, az 5 yıldır Montessori eğitimi uygulamakta olan öğretmenlerden oluşmaktadır. Çalışma verileri, çalışma grubunda yer alan öğretmenlerle araştırmacı tarafından hazırlanan üç maddelik açık uçlu sorular eşliğinde yapılan yüz yüze görüşmelerle elde edilmiştir. Çalışma kapsamında elde edilen verilerin analizinde betimsel analizden faydalanılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda, çalışma grubundaki öğretmenlerin hepsinin Montessori yaklaşımını geleneksel yaklaşıma göre daha etkili bir yöntem olarak gördüğü saptanmıştır. Amerika ve Türkiye örneğindeki öğretmenlerin bir kısmının benzer bir şekilde Montessori yaklaşımının en çok hazırlanmış-özgür bir ortam sağlayan ve sonrasında öğretmenin rehber olarak yer aldığı bir yaklaşım olduğu ile ilgili durumlar üzerinde durduğu görülmüştür. Bununla birlikte, Amerika örneğindeki öğretmenlerin daha çok Montessori yaklaşımının süreç odaklı ilerleyen, özgür seçim sunan ve bağımsız çalışmalarla yürütülen bir yaklaşım olduğunu, Türkiye örneğindeki öğretmenlerin ise daha çok Montessori yaklaşımının çocuk merkezli bir düzene, keşfederek öğrenmeye dayalı çevreye ve ödül-ceza içermeyen uygulamalara sahip bir yaklaşım olduğunu vurguladığı tespit edilmiştir. Amerika örneğindeki grupta yer alan öğretmenler için yaklaşımda özellikle öğretmenin her zaman teşvik edici/rehber olması zorlayıcı bir durum olarak görülürken, Türkiye örneğindeki grupta yer alan öğretmenler için de sınıf düzeni, ortam koşulları ve aile desteği ile ilgili durumların zorlayıcı görüldüğü belirlenmiştir. Bu doğrultuda, okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarının benimseyecekleri eğitim yaklaşımları çerçevesinde ortam niteliği, sınıf mevcudu, aile katılımı gibi boyutlardaki özelliklerinin çocuk temelli bir eğitim anlayışıyla gözden geçirilmesi ve politikacıların teşvik ve desteği ile halihazırda okullarda uygulanmakta olan eğitim süreçlerinin güçlendirilmesi önemli görülmektedir. [In this study, it is aimed to examine the views of preschool teachers working in Montessori classrooms about Montessori approach (in the case of America and Turkey) and to reveal the different, strong and challenging aspects of Montessori approach according to the views of preschool teachers. The study group consists of 9 pre-school teachers working in the Montessori classroom, in the sample of America (n=3) and Turkey (n=6). The teachers in the study group consist of teachers who have a Montessori teaching certificate and have been practicing Montessori education for at least 5 years. The study data were obtained through face-to-face interviews with the teachers in the study group, accompanied by three-item open-ended questions prepared by the researcher. Descriptive analysis was used in the analysis of the data obtained within the scope of the study. As a result of the study, it was determined that all of the teachers in the study group saw the Montessori approach as a more effective method than the traditional approach. It was seen that some of the teachers in the USA and Turkey similarly emphasized the situations related to the Montessori approach being the one that provides the most prepared-free environment and then the teacher as a guide. On the other hand, it is stated that the Montessori approach of the teachers in the US sample is a process-oriented approach, offering free choice and carried out with independent studies, while the teachers in the Turkish sample mostly say that the Montessori approach has a child-centered order, an environment based on learning by discovery and practices that do not include reward-punishment. It has been determined that the approach has been emphasized. While it was seen as a challenging situation for the teachers in the group in the US sample, especially the teacher being an encourager/guide at all times, it was determined that the situations related to the classroom arrangement, environmental conditions and family support were found to be challenging for the teachers in the group in the Turkey sample. In this direction, it is considered important to review the characteristics of the dimensions such as the quality of the environment, class size, family participation, with a child-based education approach, within the framework of the educational approaches that pre-school education institutions will adopt, and to strengthen the education processes currently being implemented in schools with the encouragement and support of politicians.]
