Abstract/Notes: More than 100 years ago, an Italian physician began designing an education system with the expressed purpose of helping children thrive to their full potential, rather than pass tests. Psychology research is strongly supportive of the system’s underlying theoretical principles, and accumulating studies show that when the system is well implemented, children’s outcomes even on tests are superior to those obtained with business-as-usual school programs. Researchers are now examining whether these good outcomes are in part due to the educational method causing epigenetic effects (i.e., changes in gene expression).

Master's Thesis (Action Research Report)

Available from: St. Catherine University

Action research, Montessori method of education

Abstract/Notes: This action research was conducted in an early childhood Montessori Primary classroom using intentional teaching practices with core curriculum materials to engage students in creative thinking. In the form of questions or suggestions, an open-ended inquiry was given to the ten participants, aged three to six years old, as they worked with Montessori materials in academic areas, including science, math, and language. The research utilized mixed methods of collection in the forms of quantitative and qualitative data and demonstrated successful intervention with a steady increase in work times of the students. A longitudinal study would contribute to this theory and provide further information regarding the increase of student understanding through creative thinking endeavors. This study provided evidence that intentional teaching practices can engage children in creative thinking, problem-solving, and collaborative learning while extending working times with materials, which contribute to a deeper level of comprehension of the direct curricular aims.

Abstract/Notes: Newton Montessori School, in Newton Centre, MA, took out ads on Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) trains as a way of marketing to commuters taking public transportation to and from work each day. Connecting and promoting real-life events on social media can increase awareness about your school and community. "[At our events], we make sure to include a drawing for a 'Montessori' prize aimed at parents-last year, we raffled off a copy of [the book] How to Raise an Amazing Child the Montessori Way and a gift certificate to [the materials company] Small Hands-it is a good way to collect email addresses from people who stop by the tent," said Kibler. [...]the most powerful marketing tool may be the simplest-word of mouth.
