Abstract/Notes: Dominasi guru dalam proses belajar masih banyak terlihat, salah satu buktinya saat terjadi pandemik Covid-19, siswa dan orang tua menjadi kebingungan ketika harus belajar dari rumah tanpa kehadiran guru secara langsung. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui implikasi student-centred learning terhadap perkembangan anak di PAUD Montessori Futura Indonesia, Lombok Barat. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan jenis studi kasus dengan menggunakan wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi dalam pengumpulan data. Subyek penelitian berjumlah 10 siswa yang berusia antara 4-6 tahun. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa terdapat beberapa cara yang diterapkan oleh guru dalam pelaksanaan student-centred learning, yaitu: penggabungan usia, penyesuaian fasilitas dengan kebutuhan dan ukuran tubuh anak, menanamkan kemandirian dan mengurangi keterlibatan guru, menyediakan fasilitas bermain yang lengkap dan beragam, dan berkolaborasi dengan orang tua. Sedangkan implikasi student-centred learning terhadap perkembangan anak dapat terlihat dari beberapa pencapaian anak pada 6 aspek perkembangan yaitu aspek perkembangan nilai agama dan moral, fisik-motorik, kognitif, sosial-emosional, dan seni. Oleh sebab itu, guru perlu memberikan kesempatan kepada anak untuk mengeksplorasi lingkungan belajar dengan mempersiapkan kegiatan bermain sesuai kebutuhan anak.

This school has been recognized for its work for almost three decades in the Brazilian territory and also internationally, being the only South-American one mentioned in Around the World in 100 Years – Montessory Centenary. Taking into consideration the relevance of studies that permit the rescue of the pedagogical dimension in History of the curriculum of the educational institutes, the following work presents, as research problem, the following question: What are the pedagogical contributions to the montessorian curricular model applied to Basic Education in contemporary Brazilian Schools? A predominantly qualitative research was developed to answer it, based on interactive observation, semi-structured interviews and photographs. For that objective, this work is structured in three chapters. The first chapter is a rescue of the significant facts related to Maria Montessori’s personal and professional life; the second presents an approach of basic ideas concerning the scientific pedagogy developed by her and the genesis of the principles that are the bases for her educational method; and the third is about the applied research at Prima-Escola Montessori in São Paulo, with the intention of permitting critical analysis between theory and practice and verifying the values and the possibilities of this teaching system nowadays. / A presente investigação focaliza os principais fundamentos da pedagogia montessoriana no que tange aos aspectos relativos à teoria e ao método propostos por Maria Montessori, desde o final do século XIX, e adaptados aos contextos educativo e curricular contemporâneos na Prima-Escola Montessori, localizada na Cidade de São Paulo. A referida Instituição tem seu trabalho reconhecido ao longo de quase três décadas no território brasileiro e também no plano internacional por ser a única instituição educacional sul-americana citada no Around the World in 100 Years – Montessori Centenary. Considerando, a priori, a pertinência de estudos que oportunizem o resgate da dimensão pedagógica na história do currículo das organizações educativas, este trabalho apresenta como problema de pesquisa a seguinte indagação: quais são as contribuições pedagógicas do modelo curricular montessoriano aplicado à Educação Básica na escola brasileira contemporânea? Para respondê-la, foi desenvolvida uma pesquisa, de cunho predominantemente qualitativo, baseada na observação participante por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas e fotografias. Nesse sentido, o trabalho estrutura-se em três capítulos. O primeiro capítulo faz um resgate de fatos significativos da trajetória da vida pessoal e profissional de Maria Montessori; o segundo apresenta uma abordagem das ideias básicas da pedagogia científica desenvolvida por ela e a gênesis dos princípios, que fundamentam seu método educativo; e o terceiro fala sobre a pesquisa de campo realizada na Prima-Escola Montessori de São Paulo, com a intenção de permitir uma análise crítica entre teoria e prática e verificar quais são, na atualidade, os valores e as possibilidades desse sistema de ensino.

Abstract/Notes: Appealing for workers to train for the White Cross work, Miss Irma Weill yesterday addressed the City Teachers' club on the need of such in Belgium to educate the many orphan children who do not have the opportunities of home life. For those who are willing to go across the waters of the Atlantic to do this work, the Montessori school offers to give 10 months intensive training for the teachers. There is a big field in this line of endeavor in reconstructing civilization after the visitation of the barbarians and Miss Weill's appeal will likely result in response here. Two interesting features of the business session included arrangements for the Teachers' club to share in the Teachers' Institute to be held here the first week in November. One of the three days' sessions will be featured by a tea and reception given by the city educators. Salaries of pedagogues was also an engrossing subject.

Abstract/Notes: Dementia diagnoses are continuing to increase, with the number of diagnoses expected to reach 231 million globally by 2050 (World Alzheimer’s Report, 2019). With this comes a greater need for Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) who are able to best treat those who are diagnosed. Providing person-centered and strengths-based treatment approaches for people with dementia (PWD) has been proven to increase positive engagement responses while decreasing negative engagement responses (Skrainer et al., 2007). The primary objective of this research study was to assess treatment approaches used by SLPs in dementia care setting, along with how SLPs provide person-centered dementia treatment throughout the progression of the disease. An anonymous survey was conducted to analyze SLPs’ perceptions and knowledge of topics regarding dementia and PCC. Participants were recruited from the American Speech-Language Hearing Association’s (ASHA) Special Interest Group: 15. Twenty-five surveys were received, and 15 of those were fully completed. A strong knowledge of treatment options for PWD can aid SLPs providing the best treatment possible for their patients. Without adequate and continued training in the areas of PCC and dementia treatment, many PWD may receive inadequate services, whether the SLP is able to recognize this issue or not.
