Abstract/Notes: Maria Montessori, yirminci yüzyıl eğitimindeki en önemli figürlerden biri olarak kabul edilmektedir. Tıp eğitimi alan Montessori, araştırmaları sırasında engelli çocuklarla karşılaşarak çalışmalarında bu çocukların eğitimine ağırlık vermiştir. Uygun yaklaşımlarla engelli çocukların eğitilebileceğine inanan Montessori; Itart ve Seguin’in engelli çocuklarla yaptıkları çalışmaları inceleyerek kendi eğitim materyallerini geliştirmiştir. Materyallerin sunumlarına ve çocuklara sunulan eğitim ortamının engelli çocukların ihtiyaçlarına hitap etmesini, ilgilerini çekmesini ve onları motive etmesini temel alan Montessori geliştirdiği materyallerle engelli çocuklarla uygulamalar yapmış ve bu çocukların ihtiyaçları doğrultusunda materyallerinde değişiklikler yaparak sistematik bir şekilde çalışmıştır. Çalışmaları sonucunda engelli çocukların beklediğinin çok ötesine ilerleme kaydettiğini fark etmiştir. Kendi adını verdiği eğitim metodunu geliştiren Montessori dönemin şartları nedeniyle normal gelişim gösteren çocukların eğitimine yönelerek çalışmalarına devam etmiştir; fakat Montessori’nin ilk özel eğitimcilerde olduğu araştırmacılar tarafından kabul edilmektedir. Montessori eğitim metodunun bireysel eğitim, çocukların kendi hızıyla ilerlemesi, duyu temelli materyaller kullanılması gibi temel ilkeleri özel eğitimin müfredatına girmiştir. Montessori eğitim metodu ülkemizde ve dünyada halen kullanılmaya devam edilmektedir. Metot ülkemizde normal gelişim gösteren çocukların eğitimlerinde kullanılırken, yurt dışında özel gereksinimli çocukların eğitimlerinde de kullanıldığı literatür incelendiğinde ortaya çıkmaktadır. Otizm, dikkat eksikliği ve hiperaktivite bozukluğu, öğrenme güçlüğü, fiziksel engel, işitme ve görme bozuklukları, Montessori eğitim metodunun eğitimleri için kullanıldığı engel gruplarının içerisinde yer almaktadır. Bu çalışmada Montessori eğitim metodu özel eğitim çerçevesinde ele alınmış, çeşitli engel gruplarında metodun kullanılabilirliği irdelenmiştir. Çalışmanın yerli literatürdeki bu açıklığı gidereceği ve yerli literatüre yeni bir bakış açısı kazandıracağı beklenmektedir. / Maria Montessori is recognized as one of the most significant figures of twentieth century education. Having received medical training, she met disabled children during her studies and focused on their education. Believing that disabled children might be educated through appropriate approaches, she developed her own educational materials by analysing Itart and Seguin’s studies on disabled children. Having focused on material presentation and an educational setting that addresses the needs of disabled children, attracts their attention and motivates them, Montessori practiced her materials with disabled children and worked systematically by modifying these materials according to their needs. She realized as a result of her studies that disabled children improved much beyond her expectations. Having developed the educational method which she gave her own name, Montessori turned the direction of her studies to education of normally developing children due to conditions of her time; however, the fact that she is one of the first special educators is recognized by researchers. Basic principles of Montessori education metod entered special education curriculum including individualized education, progress of children at their own pace and usage of sensory-based materials. Montessori education metod is still being used in our country and around the world. It is used in our country for education of normally developing children while literature review reveals that it is used abroad in education of children with special needs as well. Autism, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder, learning challenges, physical disability, hearing disorders are among the disability groups for whose education Montessori Method is used. This study deals with Montessori education metod in the context of special education, analyzing its useability in various disability groups. The study is expected to fill the gap in domestic literature and provide it a new insight.

Abstract/Notes: The late 1920s and early 1930s in Italy saw the peak of a process establishing Montessori pedagogy which would come to an end within a decade with the drastic closure of all Montessori schools in the country. This epilogue, which would also be seen in those years in other countries with a similar political regime, calls for an analysis of the relations between the creator of the most famous and widespread pedagogical method in the world and the political regime that favoured the application and dissemination of the method in Italy - a country in which it had still not encountered those conditions of realisation that would instead come about in the crucial years of the rise of Fascism and the completion of the totalitarian state. The essay examines the main events marking the history of Montessori’s conflictual relationship with Fascism in the years 1924-1934, from the initial contacts characterising it and leading up to the final break, after which Montessori finally left Italy until the end of World War II.

Abstract/Notes: Montessori is one of the most fascinating and controversial pedagogues of all time. On the one hand, the naturalists reproached her for the rigidity and artificiality of her method, as well as her rejection of productive imagination and fantasy. On the other hand, progressive educators reproached the individualist and prescriptive character of her method. The modernists reproached her for her religiosity. Some criticized her for accelerating learning or for not respecting the freedom of the child, others for the contrary. Christians branded her a secularist, positivist, naturalist, and theosophist, while theosophists defined her as Catholic. These paradoxical criticisms are due, among other reasons, to the context of the antimodernist frenzy in which she developed her method, to her network of friends in Freemason circles, to the numerous nuances of her method, to her resistance to fitting in with existing educational currents, to the instrumentalization of her method by third party interests, to her sometimes entangled and not very clear language and to the lack of knowledge of her method in action. / Montessori es una de las pedagogas más fascinantes y controvertidas de la historia. Resulta curioso que todos le reprochasen tantos aspectos tan contradictorios. Los naturalistas, la rigidez y la artificialidad de su método, así como su rechazo a la imaginación productiva y a la fantasía; los progresistas, la individualidad y el carácter coercitivo del método; los modernistas, su religiosidad; algunos la criticaban por adelantar los aprendizajes o por no respetar la libertad del alumno, otros, por lo contrario; los cristianos la tildaron de laicista, naturalista, positivista y teósofa, mientras que los teósofos la definieron como católica. Esas críticas tan paradójicas se deben, entre otras razones, al contexto de persecución antimodernista en el que desarrolló su método, a su red de amistades en los ambientes masones, a los numerosos matices de su método, a su resistencia a encajar en las corrientes educativas existentes, a la instrumentalización de su método por intereses ajenos, a su lenguaje a veces enredado y poco divulgativo y al desconocimiento de su método en acción.
