Abstract/Notes: The purpose of this qualitative research is to explore the implementation of the Montessori method in a middle school ascribed to the Puerto Rico Education Department, from the perspective of the school director and its teachers. It also identifies the challenges and the opportunities of changing from a traditional educational model to an innovative one. The methodology used for this research was the unique case study. The strategies used to gather and analyze the information were a semi structured interview with the school director, a focus group interview with six teachers and document analysis. The findings of the research emerging from the interview resulted in seven predominant categories: school retention, healthy school environment, the student as the center of the learning process, the school director’s role as promoter of educational changes, parents and community involvement and integration in the learning processes and the educational transformation that can occur within the Montessori method. This study reflects on the advantages of the Montessori method as an alternative to the traditional educational method. It also expands on the advantages of implementing this method in middle schools in Puerto Rico, on the school director as a key figure in the implementation and the advantages and opportunities of its school director. It also offers recommendations to the Puerto Rico Department of Education, the school visited, to academic school leadership programs and to future research in this area.

Available from: St. Catherine University

Abstract/Notes: The purpose of this self-study was to examine the effects of concentrated interaction with anti-bias/anti-racist media on a Montessori guide’s practice. It was conducted over a total of six weeks. The intervention included a pre- and post- survey of understanding, nightly media interactions, daily reflection journaling, daily tallies of anti-bias/anti-racist thoughts during the school day, and a daily confidence scale to measure the participant’s confidence to integrate anti-bias/anti-racist concepts into her teaching practice. The study was completed at a private Montessori school in a medium-sized midwestern town, with an early childhood classroom of fifteen three- to five-year-old students of diverse backgrounds. The findings indicate a slight increase in confidence and efficacy for the participant in discussing anti-bias/anti-racist concepts with students, families and colleagues. The findings also point to the strong need for working with other educators and Montessorians for further integrating anti-bias/anti-racist concepts into classroom practice.
