Abstract/Notes: Maria Montessori, yirminci yüzyıl eğitimindeki en önemli figürlerden biri olarak kabul edilmektedir. Tıp eğitimi alan Montessori, araştırmaları sırasında engelli çocuklarla karşılaşarak çalışmalarında bu çocukların eğitimine ağırlık vermiştir. Uygun yaklaşımlarla engelli çocukların eğitilebileceğine inanan Montessori; Itart ve Seguin’in engelli çocuklarla yaptıkları çalışmaları inceleyerek kendi eğitim materyallerini geliştirmiştir. Materyallerin sunumlarına ve çocuklara sunulan eğitim ortamının engelli çocukların ihtiyaçlarına hitap etmesini, ilgilerini çekmesini ve onları motive etmesini temel alan Montessori geliştirdiği materyallerle engelli çocuklarla uygulamalar yapmış ve bu çocukların ihtiyaçları doğrultusunda materyallerinde değişiklikler yaparak sistematik bir şekilde çalışmıştır. Çalışmaları sonucunda engelli çocukların beklediğinin çok ötesine ilerleme kaydettiğini fark etmiştir. Kendi adını verdiği eğitim metodunu geliştiren Montessori dönemin şartları nedeniyle normal gelişim gösteren çocukların eğitimine yönelerek çalışmalarına devam etmiştir; fakat Montessori’nin ilk özel eğitimcilerde olduğu araştırmacılar tarafından kabul edilmektedir. Montessori eğitim metodunun bireysel eğitim, çocukların kendi hızıyla ilerlemesi, duyu temelli materyaller kullanılması gibi temel ilkeleri özel eğitimin müfredatına girmiştir. Montessori eğitim metodu ülkemizde ve dünyada halen kullanılmaya devam edilmektedir. Metot ülkemizde normal gelişim gösteren çocukların eğitimlerinde kullanılırken, yurt dışında özel gereksinimli çocukların eğitimlerinde de kullanıldığı literatür incelendiğinde ortaya çıkmaktadır. Otizm, dikkat eksikliği ve hiperaktivite bozukluğu, öğrenme güçlüğü, fiziksel engel, işitme ve görme bozuklukları, Montessori eğitim metodunun eğitimleri için kullanıldığı engel gruplarının içerisinde yer almaktadır. Bu çalışmada Montessori eğitim metodu özel eğitim çerçevesinde ele alınmış, çeşitli engel gruplarında metodun kullanılabilirliği irdelenmiştir. Çalışmanın yerli literatürdeki bu açıklığı gidereceği ve yerli literatüre yeni bir bakış açısı kazandıracağı beklenmektedir. / Maria Montessori is recognized as one of the most significant figures of twentieth century education. Having received medical training, she met disabled children during her studies and focused on their education. Believing that disabled children might be educated through appropriate approaches, she developed her own educational materials by analysing Itart and Seguin’s studies on disabled children. Having focused on material presentation and an educational setting that addresses the needs of disabled children, attracts their attention and motivates them, Montessori practiced her materials with disabled children and worked systematically by modifying these materials according to their needs. She realized as a result of her studies that disabled children improved much beyond her expectations. Having developed the educational method which she gave her own name, Montessori turned the direction of her studies to education of normally developing children due to conditions of her time; however, the fact that she is one of the first special educators is recognized by researchers. Basic principles of Montessori education metod entered special education curriculum including individualized education, progress of children at their own pace and usage of sensory-based materials. Montessori education metod is still being used in our country and around the world. It is used in our country for education of normally developing children while literature review reveals that it is used abroad in education of children with special needs as well. Autism, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder, learning challenges, physical disability, hearing disorders are among the disability groups for whose education Montessori Method is used. This study deals with Montessori education metod in the context of special education, analyzing its useability in various disability groups. The study is expected to fill the gap in domestic literature and provide it a new insight.

Abstract/Notes: Attraverso l’utilizzo di un’ampia documentazione, basata su fonti bibliografiche e archivistiche, nel presente saggio è stato individuato un filo conduttore tra due personalità femminili, tra loro molto diverse, anche dal punto di vista generazionale: Maria Montessori e Margherita Zoebeli. Le loro iniziative in campo educativo, rispettivamente durante la prima e la seconda guerra mondiale, si svilupparono a partire dai bisogni di un’infanzia segnata tragicamente dagli eventi bellici. Proprio nelle loro esperienze è possibile individuare il fulcro vitale e propulsivo di quella che oggi viene definita “pedagogia dell’emergenza”. / In this essay, through the use of an extensive documentation, based on bibliographical and archival sources, a red thread has been identified between two female personalities, who are very different from each other, not only from a generational point of view: Maria Montessori e Margherita Zoebeli. Their initiatives in the educational field, respectively during the first and the second world war, developed starting from the needs of a childhood tragically marked by the war. In their experiences it is possible to find the cornerstone of what we can define today as “Emergency Pedagogy”.

Abstract/Notes: "Something that's unique about us, and very much because of how we were founded, is that we're really rooted in New Haven," Eliza Halsey tells me in her office. She's the Executive Director of ECMS (Elm City Montessori School) and a lifetime New Haven resident herself. In 2013, frustrated by the lack of high quality early education options in the city, Halsey and a group of parents decided to submit an application to form a local charter school. Their plan, a Montessori school serving a racially diverse group of children from age 3 through 8th grade, gained approval from both the local and state boards of education. In the fall of 2014, the school opened its doors, admitting a fraction of the 500 children who applied for seats. The parents and community members who came together to create ECMS had one goal in mind: to create a high-quality public early education option utilizing the Montessori method they had observed in Hartford. But creating a school is no easy process.

Abstract/Notes: The purpose of this study is to find out the implications for the characteristics of inclusive education in Montessori Elementary Schools in Germany, affecting Korea's inclusive education. The research method was based on the data and information, collected by visiting the Montessori Schools in Germany, along with literature reviews, which is inclusive of data search on the Internet. Two major implications of this study are as follows: First, the most important and basic community spirit and the will to practice of Montessori Elementary Schools are thoroughly imprinted in school authorities, school members, and educational programs in integration education. Second, To realize the essential meaning of inclusive education, the proportion of students with disabilities in each school and class plays an important role. This means that students with disabilities should account for a certain percentage, not the proportion of very small number of students, regardless of schools or classes so as to prevent the isolation or stigma of students with disabilities. This is more effective than any other way in terms of the educational support of teachers. / 본 연구는 독일 몬테소리 초등학교에서의 통합교육 운영 특성을 바탕으로 우리나라 통합교육에 미치는 시사점을 찾아보는데 그 목적이 있다. 이에 연구방법으로는 인터넷 자료검색을 비롯하여 문헌연구와 더불어 독일의 관련 몬테소리학교를 방문하여 수집된 자료와 정보를 바탕으로 하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 도출된 두 가지 주요 시사점은 첫째, 몬테소리 초등학교는 통합교육에 있어서 가장 중요하고 기초적인 공동체 의식과 실천의지가 학교당국과 학교 구성원 및 교육프로그램에 철저하게 각인되어 있다는 점이다. 둘째, 통합교육의 본질적인 의미를 실현하기 위하여 각 학교 및 각 학급에서 장애학생이 차지하는 비율이 매우 중요함을 알 수 있다. 이는 학교차원이든 학급차원이든 장애학생들이 극히 소수가 아니라, 일정 비율을 차지하여야 장애학생의 고립이나 낙인효과를 예방할 수 있고, 교사들의 교육적 지원에서도 더 효과적이라는 것이다. 특히 통합학교나 통합학급에 일정비율의 장애학생 점유율은 통합교육이나 장애인에 대한 인식 개선, 행·재정적 지원, 교육프로그램, 특수교사 및 보조교사의 증원, 장애인 편의시설, 교사 간 협력 수업 등에 있어서 통합교육의 본질적인 목적인 교육 공동체의 실현을 위하여 매우 긍정적이고 실제적인 요소로 작용할 수 있다는 것이다.

Abstract/Notes: In 2002, Cincinnati Public Schools (CPS) adopted a policy committing itself to develop all schools in the district as community learning centers. In Pleasant Ridge, one of Cincinnati's most racially and socio-economically diverse neighborhoods, the community set itself to the task of rebuilding what had been a failing school that reflected little of the neighborhood's diversity. After-school programming to provide extracurricular opportunities emerged as a top priority, as did health and wellness services. Another priority was the development of the Pleasant Ridge school facility as an environmentally sound and sustainable "green" building. Yet, despite the promise of an environmentally cutting-edge school and partnerships ranging from the YMCA to various health providers, all of this was not sufficient to attract new families to the school. And so, just as the environmental enthusiasts were leading a grassroots effort to dramatically change the plans for the physical facility, a group of young parents became involved in challenging the academic program. This group, mostly parents of infants and toddlers, asked themselves, "What would it take for us to send our children to this new school?" Their collective answer was a conversion to a Montessori program.
