Abstract/Notes: This article presents the results of an ongoing scientific initiation research, as well as the contributions attained from a Research Internships Abroad Program (BEPE/FAPESP) which sought to expand the theoretical framework on design processes regarding sensory products in the European Market. The study focuses on toys for children with blindness or low vision, including its design process, all the way though its physical prototyping. Here follows the adopted structure of analysis: (a) Theoretical review on the design of sensory products and the contribution of the Montessori method; (b) Application of synchronous analysis amid similar children’s toys from the European market, specifically those commercialized in Portugal; (c) Project development with generation and selection of alternatives; (d) Experimental execution of the physical prototype at the Prototype Laboratory. Thus, this research aims to contribute to the development of sensory products through the Montessori method, as well as stimulating further research in the areas of Product Design and Inclusive Design.

Abstract/Notes: Im Jahr 2007 wurde in aller Welr das 100jährige Jubiläum der Montessori-Pädagogik gefeiert. Denn 1907 hatte Maria Montessori (1870-1952) im römischen Elendsviertel San Lorenzo ihr erstes Kinderhaus für 2- bis 6jährige Kinder gegründet. Heute gibt es in 110 Ländern der Erde Zehntausende von Montessori-Einrichtungen für alle Alterstufen. Was macht dieses Konzept so aktuell? Dieser Frage ging die Tagung der deutschen Montessori-Vereinigung im Jubiläumsjahr 2007 nach. Die Tagungsbeiträge, die sich schwerpunktmäßig auf Theorie und Praxis der Vorschulerziehung beziehen, sind in diesem umfassenden Band dokumentiert, zusammen mit einigen zusätzlich aufgenommen Aufsätzen zu gegenwärtigen Forschungsfragen. [In 2007, the 100th anniversary of Montessori education was celebrated all over the world. Because in 1907 Maria Montessori (1870-1952) founded her first children's home for 2- to 6-year-old children in the Roman slum district of San Lorenzo. Today there are tens of thousands of Montessori institutions for all ages in 110 countries around the world. What makes this concept so topical? The conference of the German Montessori Association in the anniversary year 2007 investigated this question. The conference contributions, which focus on the theory and practice of pre-school education, are documented in this comprehensive volume, together with some additional articles on current research questions.]
