Abstract/Notes: Montessori pedagogy, a child-focused educational approach, is based on principles introduced by Maria Montessori while observing child’s learning, encouraging their activity and respecting their personality. By following the guidelines and educational principles of Montessori pedagogy, we follow the natural psychological and physiological development of the child, as well as encouraging the child’s personal development. The aim of this paper is to implement Cosmic education of Montessori pedagogy in teaching Science. By extensively researching literature on the Montessori method, Cosmic education, and attending the two year Montessori education in Osijek, I find that the Cosmic education could be implemented in teaching Science to a great extent, because it offers a large variety of topics and cosmic tasks which a person should fulfill during their lifetime and which are taught and thoroughly explored in a Montessori school and regarded as an inexhaustible source of knowledge. .

Abstract/Notes: Montessori pedagogy is a pedagogical concept that was created by Maria Montessori, and is based on anthropology and scientific observation of the natural learning process of children. It is recognizable by its prepared environment with didactic shaped material that provide children an independent realization of knowledge. Although the concept was formed at the beginning of the 20th century, it is a pedagogical approach that still adequately responds to the developmental needs of children and overcome the disadvantages of the traditional educational system focused on the teacher. The aim of this study was to determine the opinions that students of teaching studies have on Montessori pedagogy considering their study. The study was conducted on an intentional sample of students from the Faculty of Philosophy in Split, the department of teacher education and the department of pedagogy. The results showed that students, dependent on their study, differ in knowledge about Montessori pedagogy and valuation of the desirability of the traditional education, while there is no difference in attitudes towards Montessori pedagogy and in valuation of the desirability of the education based on independence, play and the satisfaction of knowledge. Pedagogy students had several courses where they gained knowledge about Montessori pedagogy and had experience visiting Montessori institutions where they experienced the application of these pedagogical principles in practice, while students from the department of teacher education haven't had such experiences and they were less familiar with the Montessori pedagogy during their study. That reflected on some of their attitudes. The existing of a positive attitude towards Montessori pedagogy regardless of the level of knowledge about this conception leads to the conclusion that the connotations they have about the Montessori pedagoy are positive, which supports the hypothesis of a positive image of the concept not only among many experts, but also among lay people. / Montessori pedagogija je pedagoška koncepcija koju je osmislila Marija Montessori, a temelji se na antropologiji i znanstvenom promatranju prirodnog procesa učenja djece. Prepoznatljiva je po pripremljenoj okolini s didaktički oblikovanom materijalu koji djeci omogućuju samostalan dolazak do spoznaje. Iako je koncepcija ponuđena početkom 20. stoljeća i danas se smatra pedagoškim pristupom koji primjereno odgovara na razvojne potrebe djece te prevladava nedostatke tradicionalnog odgojno-obrazovnog sustava usmjerenog na učitelja. Cilj ovog istraživanja je utvrditi razlikuju li se studenti nastavničkih studija u stavovima o Montessori pedagogiji s obzirom na studij. Istraživanje je provedeno na namjernom uzorku studenata učiteljskog studija i studija pedagogije Filozofskog fakulteta u Splitu. Rezultati su pokazali da se studenti s obzirom na studij razlikuju u znanjima o Montessori pedagogiji te u procjeni poželjnosti tradicionalnog odgoja, dok se ne razlikuju u stavovima o Montessori pedagogiji i u procjeni poželjnosti odgoja utemeljenog na samostalnosti, igri i zadovoljstvu spoznajom. Studenti studija pedagogije u okviru više kolegija stjecali su znanja o Montessori pedagogiji te imali iskustva posjeta Montessori ustanovama u kojima su doživjeli primjenu tih pedagoških načela u praksi, dok studenti učiteljskog studija nisu imali takva iskustva te su o Montessori pedagogiji tijekom studija bili slabije upoznati što se odrazilo i na neke njihove stavove. Postojanje pozitivnog stava o Montessori pedagogiji neovisno o razini znanja o toj koncepciji upućuje na zaključak da su konotacije koje imaju vezano za Montessori pedagogiju pozitivne, što ide u prilog tezi o pozitivnoj slici o toj koncepciji ne samo među mnogim stručnjacima, nego i među laicima.
