Abstract/Notes: Dr. Maria Montessori provided the world with a powerful philosophy and practice for the advancement of humanity: change how we educate children and we change the world. She understood two things very clearly: One, that we can build a better world, a more just and peaceful place, when we educate for the realization of the individual and collective human potential; and two, that the only way to create an educational system that will serve this end is to scrap the current system entirely and replace it with a completely new system. She gave us a system through which to accomplish that goal: The Montessori Method. The following is a personal and professional account of the Montessori Method of educating children.

Abstract/Notes: Dyskusje wokół wartości pedagogiki Marii Montessori w świetle współczesnych badań psychologicznych koncentrują się często na obszarze poznawczym czy też społecznym w rozwoju dziecka. Poniższy artykuł jest natomiast próbą znalezienia podobieństw w zakresie proponowanego wizerunku młodego człowieka ukształtowanego drogą określonych działań stymulujących w metodzie Montessori a koncepcji umysłu przyszłości Howarda Gardnera. Celem pedagogiki Montessori jest wychowanie człowieka potrafiącego zachować wolność i dyscyplinę wewnętrzną, myślącego niezależnie i krytycznie, odnoszącego się z szacunkiem do siebie i innych, dbającego o ład i harmonię w sobie i wokół siebie. Oddziaływania edukacji w myśl założeń H. Gardnera powinny rozwijać u młodego człowieka sposób funkcjonowania, który zapewni mu produktywne życie w pokojowej wspólnocie ludzi. Umysł człowieka odpowiadającego na potrzeby współczesności zawiera pięć istotnych elementów: myślenie kategoriami określonej dyscypliny wiedzy, zdolność do syntezy, zdolność do rozumienia innych ludzi, kreatywność oraz respektowanie zasad etycznych. Obie propozycje opierają się na interdyscyplinarnym myśleniu twórców, uwzględniającym aspekt antropologiczny, psychologiczny i edukacyjny w refleksji nad rozwojem człowieka. Obie również dotykają takich zagadnień jak dbanie o siebie i otoczenie (ekologia, współodczuwanie), kształcenie narzędzi myślenia w celu osiągnięcia jak największej niezależności w myśleniu, intencjonalne przygotowanie otoczenia promujące troskę o środowisko. W stylistyce opisu propozycji wychowania i edukacji odnaleźć można u obu twórców bogatą metaforykę ułatwiającą odbiorcy recepcję opisywanych idei. Wzywania i potrzeby globalnego świata stawiają kolejne pytania dotyczące optymalnej edukacji. Formułowanie odpowiedzi na te pytania jest procesem dynamicznym, dostarczającym wciąż nowych rozwiązań. [In the light of contemporary psychological research, discussions around the value of Maria Montessori's pedagogy often focus on the cognitive or social area of a child's development. The following article is an attempt to find similarities in the proposed image of a young person shaped by specific stimulating activities in the Montessori method and Howard Gardner's concept of the future mind. The aim of Montessori pedagogy is to educate a person who can maintain freedom and internal discipline, think independently and critically, respect himself and others, care for order and harmony in and around himself. The impact of education, according to the assumptions of H. Gardner, should develop in a young person a way of functioning that will ensure a productive life in a peaceful community of people. The mind of a person responding to the needs of modern times contains five essential elements: thinking in terms of a specific discipline of knowledge, the ability to synthesize, the ability to understand other people, creativity and respect for ethical principles. Both proposals are based on the interdisciplinary thinking of the creators, taking into account the anthropological, psychological and educational aspects in reflection on human development. Both also touch upon issues such as taking care of oneself and the environment (ecology, compassion), shaping the tools of thinking in order to achieve the greatest possible independence in thinking, and intentional preparation of the environment promoting care for the environment. In the style of describing the upbringing and education proposals, both authors can find rich metaphors that make it easier for the recipient to receive the described ideas. The challenges and needs of the global world raise new questions about optimal education. Formulating answers to these questions is a dynamic process that constantly provides new solutions.]

Abstract/Notes: Specifically see page 539: "Estimate of $1003. from General Superintendent [H. H.] Barter on cost of proposed Montessori School building, same having been cut down as close as possible. Mr. Davis stated that it had been suggested that a part of the sessions be held down town; the [Executive] Committee did not feel that they could expend this amount, owing to the fact that free admissions were given, and there was no prospect of anything additional at the gates, so Mr. Davis was asked to recommend that all their sessions be held down town."
