Abstract/Notes: The goal of this research was to explore teachers' and university students' perceptions of material, cognitive and affective-motivational characteristics as well as the acceptance of didactic materials used in Montessori schools. It has been found that both teachers and university students are not familiar enough with alternative pedagogical concepts and believe there's an insufficient number of them in Croatia. While teachers prefer Cosmic Education and Mathematics materials, university students like Language Education materials more, although teachers show more willingness to use Language Education materials in teaching whereas university students use Cosmic Education materials more readily. Both university students and teachers find it most demanding to make Cosmic Education materials, but they also believe such materials to be most concrete. The results have shown that both university students and teachers are more willing to use in teaching such positively evaluated examples of Montessori didactic materials, which have been explored in this research, when they believe them to be valuable, desirable, necessary and useful.

Abstract/Notes: Albania comes from a long history of behavioral theories and the error is not yet free from the influence of this theory, even though the curriculum used in pre-university education is based on constructionist approaches. The positive influence of errors in the teaching/learning process has been widely discussed, but in mathematics, there is a lack of real pedagogical plans and differentiated instructional treatment, where there is a tendency to emphasize errors as much as possible. The purpose of this article is to highlight the educational motives of error in the process of enhancing learning in mathematics. Concrete educational planning that makes use of the power of errors is especially important from the perspective of why errors should be studied and what is stimulated by their correct use. The interpretation of mistakes at the metacognitive and non-cognitive levels is of relevance, and we highlight its main parameters, which are self-acceptance, self-control, and self-correction, using a critical and creative approach. The paper provides a solid theoretical framework for the relevance of extensive mistake analysis, where proper interpretation necessitates a variety of pedagogical and didactic treatments that promote learning building. Math instructors and educational institutions at all levels will benefit from this study. / Shqipëria vjen nga një histori e gjatë e teorive bihevioriste ku gabimi ende nuk është i çliruar nga ndikimi i kësaj teorie, edhe pse kurrikula e përdorur në arsimin parauniversitar bazohet në qasje konstruktiviste. Në këtë punim është diskutuar gjerësisht ndikimi pozitiv i gabimeve në procesin e mësimdhënies/të nxënit, por në rastin e matematikës mungojnë plane reale pedagogjike dhe trajtime të diferencuara didaktike, ku gabimet priren të theksohen sa më shumë. Qëllimi i këtij artikulli është të nxjerrë në pah motivet pedagogjike të gabimeve në procesin e përmirësimit të të nxënit në matematikë. Një projektim didaktik konkret që shfrytëzon fuqinë e gabimeve është veçanërisht i rëndësishëm për sa i përket arsyes pse gabimet duhet të studiohen dhe çfarë stimulohet konkretisht nga përdorimi i tyre i saktë. Interpretimi i gabimeve në nivel metakonjitiv dhe jokonjitiv është i rëndësishëm ku veçohen parametrat kryesor, të cilët janë, vetëpranimi, vetëkontrolli dhe vetëkorrigjimi, duke përdorur qasje kritike dhe krijuese. Ky artikull ofron një kornizë solide teorike për rëndësinë e analizës së hollësishme të gabimeve, interpretimi i saktë i tyre kërkon një shumëllojshmëri trajtimesh pedagogjike dhe didaktike që nxisin ndërtimin e të nxënit. Nga ky studim do të përfitojnë mësuesit e matematikës dhe institucionet arsimore të të gjitha niveleve.

Abstract/Notes: In an effort to improve the quality of education received by the nation’s children, research has been conducted to identify factors that contribute to student success. Research indicates that teacher training and credentials are related to higher student achievement. This paper explores the literature regarding teacher effectiveness and then compares practices of effective teachers with the training received by Montessori teachers. The results were used to identify a gap in the teacher-training program. This information was substantiated by data collected using an online survey. The survey also measured the percent of Delaware Montessori teachers who have their state teaching certification as well as their interest in a potential Montessori teacher education graduate program. With this information, a school-university graduate partnership was designed. The graduate program would result in educators becoming dual certified, both Montessori certified and state licensed and certified. This executive position paper advocates for the establishment of a school-university partnership between the Delaware Institute for Montessori Education (DIME) and the College of Education at Wilmington University for the purposes of creating a pathway to a graduate degree and dual certification for qualified Montessori educators.
