Montessori and Brain Research
See More
Abstract/Notes: Researchers in medicine, education, and related fields continue to make new discoveries about how the brain functions or malfunctions. The implications of studies of how young children learn compare favorably with those of educators such as Maria Montessori, Jerome Bruner, and Jean Piaget. These researchers saw growth and development as a series of stages related to inherited potential, maturation, and experiences. Brain research has concluded that (1) no single area of the brain can function alone, (2) individuals generate and associate different meanings to similar experiences, (3) the brain grows in spurts, (4) the brain responds to the environment surrounding it, (5) the brain can easily establish elaborate abstract coding and decoding systems, and (6) the brain deals with the world systematically. The role of the Montessori teacher--making the children the center of learning, encouraging children to use the freedom provided for them, observing children in order to prepare the best possible environment, recognizing sensitive periods, and diverting unacceptable behavior into meaningful tasks--supports the implications of this research.

Abstract/Notes: The prime objective of this research was to investigate whether the Montessori method of learning helped kindergarten pupils improve their mathematical proficiency, critical thinking and problem-solving skills, besides training them to be responsible learners. Quantitative, qualitative, and observational methods were employed in the investigation. The sample for the study comprised 180 kindergarten pupils from TadikaBestari Al-Hidayah, located in Bandar Seri Damansara, Malaysia. The instruments for collecting data were questionnaires, interviews, and field observations. Results from a pre-test and a post-test showed that pupils who used the Montessori method, i.e. the experimental group, outperformed (72.2% passed) their peers who were not exposed to the Montessori method (39% passed). The findings indicated that the Montessori method indeed helped learners to improve their mathematical proficiency. This research offers guidelines to future researchers on alternative learning methods, especially for very young children. The findings of this empirical research could be prototyped for learning other subjects.
