Abstract/Notes: This chapter looks at the consolidation of progressive education in Spain during the first third of the twentieth century and aims to unpack the question of its annihilation by the Franco regime during the civil war and the early period of the dictatorship. It starts by showing the consolidation of an active and influential pedagogical vanguard that had clear influence on the education system during the Second Republic. It then traces signs of continuity in this educational movement after the establishment of the Franco regime by classifying this evidence into three categories: utilization, undercurrent adaptation, and resistance. This chapter concludes by looking at the complexity of education during the early Franco regime, highlighting the coexistence of a school culture forged before the civil war with ideas and practices identified with National Catholicism introduced by the dictatorship. By presenting this complexity, this chapter challenges a widely accepted vision concerning the total educational backlash that came in the wake of the establishment of the dictatorship.

Montessori Versus Confucius - Jumping Over the Door the Fish Becomes a Dragon: Exploring the Feasibility of the Introduction of Montessori Methods into Chinese School Education

Available from: Monash University

See More

Abstract/Notes: This treatise systematically explores the students' views of school education in Mainland China. It focuses on the feasibility of the introduction of Montessori educational ideas into Chinese school education. The study compares the opinions of the participants on the formal education system adopted in public schools in China and their views on what the Montessori method might constitute, as a prerequisite to discussing the possibility of adopting Montessori methods in these schools. Then it looks at the educational policy that favors such an introduction. The main method used in this study is a survey conducted in a local high school in the northeast of China. The participants were questioned about their satisfaction level with advanced Western educational methods and principles. The author also attempted to gain an insight into the possibility of the adoption of Montessori methods in other public schools in China. To do so, questionnaire covering such areas as learning effectiveness, teaching methods, and the curriculum have been carefully designed and distributed in several public schools. The study showed that while learning is relatively effective, the teaching methods in Mainland China are monotonous, and the curriculum is controlled by examinations. Nevertheless, the monotonous teaching methods show a trend towards being diversified. The statistics also show that those students who were subject to Montessori methods in the early childhood period were less satisfied with the relationship between students and teachers than those who were subject to the traditional teaching methods. However the former subjects are more satisfied with their classmates than are the latter. As far as the curriculum and independence in classrooms are concerned, neither group was satisfied
