Abstract/Notes: The goal of the present study was to investigate the effects of the Montessori educational theory on the field of the early childhood education in terms of the educational philosophy. To do that, the theories including Frobel, Dewey, and Piaget were compared to the Montessori theory as ways to understand its role in the development of the educational theory. The guideline developed by Braun & Edward(1972) was used to compare and analyze the theoreandal components (e.g., a view of children, teachers, and learning) in each theory. The major findings of this study and suggestions for the further study were discussed. / 본 연구는 현대 유아교육사상에 많은 영향을 미친 Montessori 와 Frobel, Dewey, Piaget의 유아의 사고 및 행동과 교육적 적용에 정립한 핵심적인 사상들 (Braun & Edward, 1972; 신화식, 2006)을 문헌을 통해 유아관, 환경관, 교사관 및 교육관으로 비교·분석 하였다. 연구결과로 Motessori와 Frobel, Dewey 및 Piaget는 서로 사상적으로 관련이 있었다. 이는 Montessor 교육과정이 100년이 지난 지금도 유아교육현장에서 유아와 함께 진행되고 발전될 수 있음으로 시사 받을 수 있다.

Abstract/Notes: Over the years, many studies have been developed on the materials used in teaching. Some research is aimed at presenting sources that allow us to systematically study these elements. With the commercial development of the production of didactic materials, we have been witnessing, since the end of the 19th century, the genesis and growth of manufactures aimed at educational environments. These manufactures generate production and marketing flows that sometimes determine the implementation of pedagogical innovations. On the other hand, the material associated with certain teaching methods has become, over the years, a hallmark of many of these methods. It has been used to disseminate teaching methodologies and has sometimes been presented as a badge. The Montessori Method and its dissemination are a clear example of this type of practice. This work studies the introduction of the Montessori Method in different countries, the establishment of patents and material catalogues. The internationalization of the method and the commercial interests associated with it are the subject of analysis through different sources. / Al llarg dels anys, s’han desenvolupat molts estudis sobre els materials utilitzats a l’ensenyament. Algunes investigacions estan orientades a presentar fonts que ens permetin l’estudi sistemàtic d’aquests elements. Amb el desenvolupament comercial de la producció de materials didàctics assistim, des de finals del segle xix, a la gènesi i el creixement de manufactures destinades als entorns educatius. Aquestes manufactures generen fluxos de producció i comercialització que, de vegades, determinen la posada en marxa d’innovacions pedagògiques. D’altra banda, el material associat a determinats mètodes d’ensenyament s’ha convertit, en diferents moments, en senyal d’identitat de molts d’aquests mètodes. Ha servit per difondre metodologies didàctiques i, a vegades, se’ls ha presentat com a insígnia. El mètode Montessori i la seva difusió constitueixen un exemple clar d’aquest tipus de pràctiques. En aquest treball s’estudia la introducció del mètode Montessori a diferents països, l’establiment de patents i els catàlegs del material. La internacionalització del mètode i els interessos comercials que hi estan associats són objecte d’anàlisi a través de diferents fonts. / Muchos han sido los estudios que, sobre los materiales utilizados en la enseñanza, se han desarrollado a lo largo de los años.

La internacionalización del método y los intereses comerciales asociados al mismo son objeto de análisis a través de distintas fuentes.

Abstract/Notes: Montessori education was born in Italy more than a century ago and today it is widespread in at least 36 countries around the world. In Italy, from 2016 to 2021, the number of Montessori primary schools more than doubled. This explanatory and exploratory research is the most comprehensive evaluation of Montessori education ever conducted in Italy. We investigated: a) the impact of Montessori education on academic and socio-emotional outcomes; b) the profiles of Montessori primary school teachers and the extent to which they implemented Montessori education with fidelity. The longitudinal study on the academic outcomes was conducted on 2nd, 5th, 8th and 10th grade students in two separate cohorts. The results demonstrate that, depending on the grade and the cohort considered, Montessori students achieve similar or significantly higher scores than non-Montessori students. In some cases, they achieve more heterogeneous scores, especially in mathematics. More heterogeneous scores were expected according to the hypothesis that Montessori education aims to develop the characteristics of each one and not to standardize academic outcomes. The study on the socio-emotional outcomes was conducted on 8th grade students and it demonstrates that Montessori students achieve significantly higher scores on the empathy scale. The survey on the teachers permitted to delineate 3 different profiles of them, thanks to a cluster analysis. Only the first group of teachers, which made up half of the sample, managed to implement Montessori education with fidelity. These findings highlight two main requirements. The first is the need to continue monitoring and guiding the diffusion of Montessori education among Italian primary schools, to improve and maintain fidelity. The second concerns the reaffirmation of the value of educational practices and the principles of Montessori activism as possible answers that are still valid to the new needs of the Italian school.
