Abstract/Notes: We explore the use of video and photo elicitation in a research study undertaken to understand the way in which preschool teachers perceive and construct their provision of children’s educational experiences. We explore the value of visually elicited interviews based on video footage and photographs captured during teaching and learning in four classrooms in two preschool settings in Kenya. Through visually elicited interviews, both the teachers and the researcher constructed meaningful conversations (interviews) to explore preschool teachers’ practical experiences and their beliefs, understanding and interpretation of developmentally appropriate educational practices. This paper targets the possible value of and contribution made by visual data generation procedures, as well as their inherent challenges, in order to add to the body of knowledge on visually elicited interviews.

Abstract/Notes: This chapter outlines the centrality of cosmic education to the Montessori approach for children ages 6 to 12. The chapter examines how cosmic fables, elaborated with Mario Montessori and other collaborators, foster active and participatory experiences. However, in a broader context, cosmic education is a framework within which the entire work of Maria Montessori can be considered. It is the original nucleus of her thought, starting from the early years of the twentieth century. It considers each aspect of a person in relation to every other living form on the planet, including the history of the world, origins of the cosmos, and the role of humans. By extension, it incorporates the history of civilizations and cultures into an educational philosophy with an ultimate goal of universal cooperation, the affirmation of democracy, and ultimately world peace.
