Abstract/Notes: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of Montessori method education on the visual-motor abilities of students with nonverbal learning disorders. For the purpose of this study, 4 first grade male students with nonverbal learning disabilities who were studying at Nabi Akram primary school in Bonab, during the academic year of 2019-2020, were selected based on the bender visual - motor gestalt test. In this research, which is a single-subject design with multi-baselines (ABA), each participant was first carefully observed according to the criteria of nonverbal learning disability and their visual-motor cognitive abilities accurately measured and recorded. Then, during the intervention phase, each participant received the Montessori method education during the 10 sessions for 45 minutes separately. The performance of the participants is also observed in the follow-up sessions. Finally, the data was analyzed by analyzing the visual diagrams, percentage of all non-overlapping data (PAND), calculating the effect size index and recovery percentage. The results of the research showed that the Montessori method education increased the visual-motor abilities of all four participants. As a result, Montessori education can be used as part of empowerment programs for students with nonverbal learning disabilities.

She is going to California. Mrs. Montessori said that her second visit to this country was brought about by an invitation from the State Board of Education of California and that on her arrival in San Francisco she would immediately begin instruction for a special class of teachers. The educator was accompanied by her cousin, Mario Montesano, seventeen years old, who has been a student of her method. Mme.

Abstract/Notes: Studi ini merupakan Diskursus mengenai Prinsip, Pendekatan Dan Metode-metode Pembelajaran Yang Relevan Kepada Anak Usia Dini. Adapun kategori anak usia dini adalah masa usia emas (golden age) untuk menanamkan nilai-nilai rohani dan pembentukan karakter serta memperkenalkan mereka dengan pengetahuan dan keterampilan dengan sederhana. Studi ini dilakukan dengan metode deskriptif melalui penelitian literatur yang berkaitan dengan pendidikan anak usia dini dengan menelaah prinsip, pendekatan proses pembelajaran dan metode-metode pembelajaran terhadap anak usia dini. Hasil studi memperlihatkan adanya dua pendekatan proses pembelajaran yakni dari golongan interaksionisme dan kategorial yang masing-masing berorientasi kepada anak sebagai subyek pendidikan serta bermacam-macam metode pembelajaran yang menekankan peran anak untuk memahami, menangkap dan mengetahui apa yang hendak diajarkan oleh guru kepada mereka. Karena itu, satuan pendidikan PAUD dapat menggunakan integrasi atau kombinasi antara pendekatan dari golongan interaksionisme dan kategorial. Demikian pula, satuan PAUD dapat menggunakan beragam metode yang relevan dengan memberikan penekanan bahwa anak-anak usia dini sebagai subyek pendidikan yang perlu diberikan rangsangan untuk menolong mereka bertumbuh dengan utuh (holistic/comprehensive approach) baik rohani, karakter, pengetahuan dan keterampilan.

Abstract/Notes: This mixed methods study focused on the impact of Montessori education on middle school students and educators in a specific public school district in South Florida. The research aim was to determine what academic and social influences Montessori education had on the participants. A sequential explanatory mixed methods design was utilized to evaluate the data: archival student reading and mathematics end-of-year data and teacher interviews. Quantitative analyses of FSA scores in mathematics and reading for SY 2018-2019 indicated that middle school students that were enrolled in a full-time Montessori Magnet program offering did significantly better in mathematics and reading than non-Montessori students that attended a Magnet school hosting multiple programs, which included Montessori. The qualitative analyses (interview data and artifacts) of teacher participants revealed that they believed Montessori education impacted students and educators academically and socially. However, findings revealed that none of the teacher participants were Montessori credentialed, and credentialing of teachers is essential when on a pathway to continuous school improvement. Montessori education at the secondary levels (middle school and high school) continues to develop, creating increased opportunities for future research. Ultimately, stakeholders want to measure the success of their investments into magnet programs such as Montessori education. Research that opens doors for educational reform efforts can provide a springboard for further discussion and establish a baseline for future research in Montessori education in public secondary schools.
