Abstract/Notes: Montessori education and teacher preparation exist within a larger framework of teacher education worldwide, and major trends in global teacher education impact Montessori teacher preparation. This chapter examines the intersection of contemporary teacher education and Montessori teacher education in certification programs and policies in the arena of higher education. In some instances, Montessori education is already on the leading edge of contemporary teacher education with neuroscience and psychological research regularly reflecting the value of Montessori principles. In other ways, Montessori education is on the receiving end of this work, learning from contemporary teacher education programs in areas such as assessment, inclusion, diversity, technology use, and differentiation.

Abstract/Notes: This chapter emphasises the importance of teachers consciously trying to live together harmoniously for themselves as opposed to merely modelling behaviours. It highlights the teachers’ intrinsic commitment to pursuing Learning To Live Together Harmoniously both for themselves and for their students. It encourages questioning if schools need to be just learning centres for children or if they can be restructured as learning spaces for everyone, spaces for community living, and spaces for experimenting with different ways of living and being. It exemplifies some of these alternatives and finds that the schools had several supportive systems for teachers, including those for autonomy, dialogue, collaboration, reflection, meditation, action on issues of social justice, and ethos of harmony.

Abstract/Notes: This paper discusses the implications of using life history methodology in teacher research. By examining teachers’ life stories within a cultural and historical context the researcher and teacher, in collaboration, construct a life history. Biographical material based on the personal and professional aspects of being a teacher were collected from eight Montessori teachers in Sweden. Empirical data included interviews, diaries, written narratives and discussions. Theoretical and philosophical issues raised in conjunction with the biographies included counterconcepts such as traditional educational theory/critical reflection and continuity/change within the profession. Specific issues were raised in regard to students, parents, the work situation, etc. Valuable insights were gained concerning the changing roles of teachers in contemporary educational contexts. The voices and visions of teachers should thus be able to contribute to a deeper understanding of the role of the teacher and by so doing lead to improvements within the profession as a whole.
