Abstract/Notes: This text presents a theoretical analysis of Maria Montessori’s concept of cognitive autonomy, defined as a process of gaining power and control over one’s own thinking and learning, building the ability to regulate its course and evaluate the results of learning. The main aim of the article is to present the cognitive potential included in M. Montessori’s pedagogical thinking, the undiscovered dimensions of her concepts, and the unusual actuality confirmed by the latest research results. The first part of the article presents the constructive nature of the learning process based on self-discipline, the internal ability to regulate one’s own impulses, and control them consciously. The second part of the article presents contemporary interpretations of Maria Montessori’s concepts, provided by researchers and teachers- practitioners from the perspective of new psychological and pedagogical achievements. The evolution in the thinking of Montessori teachers is seen here as being a sensitive balance, with the “purity” of Montessori’s original ideas on the one hand, and a critical reflection over one’s own personal teaching practice, and discovering problems or phenomena, which – although unnamed – are deeply rooted in the Montessori classroom environment. / Artykuł jest teoretyczną analizą montessoriańskiej koncepcji autonomii (samodzielności) poznawczej dziecka, rozumianej jako stopniowe zdobywanie kontroli nad własnym uczeniem się, budowanie zdolności do regulowania jego przebiegu i oceny efektów. Głównym celem jest ukazanie potencjału poznawczego zawartego w myśli pedagogicznej Marii Montessori, głębi jej koncepcji pedagogicznej, a zarazem zaskakującej aktualności założeń, które znajdują potwierdzenie w wynikach współczesnych badań nad uczeniem się. W pierwszej części tekstu ukazano uczenie się jako proces konstruktywistyczny, oparty na zdolności do samodyscypliny, wewnętrznego regulowania własnych impulsów, poddawania ich świadomej kontroli. W drugiej części artykułu ukazano współczesne interpretacje koncepcji M. Montessori, dokonywane przez badaczy i nauczycieli praktyków, pod wpływem najnowszych badań psychologicznych. Przedstawiona tu ewolucja poglądów nauczycieli charakteryzuje się z jednej strony dbałością o „czystość” montessoriańskiej idei, z drugiej zaś krytyczną refleksją nad własną praktyką edukacyjną i odkrywaniem w niej idei i problemów, które – choć nienazwane – tkwią głęboko zakorzenione w przygotowanym do samodzielnego uczenia się otoczeniu klasy Montessori.

Abstract/Notes: "New York, Apr 19 - La Dottoressa Maria Montessori e giunta off a bordo del piroscafo "Duca degli Abruzzi". La illustre pedagogista rimarra in America quattro mesi. Ella e accompagnata dal cugino Mario Montessori. Quanto prima partira per la California, ove e state chiamata da quel Consiglio dell'Istruzione a tenere un corso di pedagogia e didattica per le maestre delle scuole elementari. La Dottoressa Montessori e stata l'iniziatrice di un nuovo metodo pedagogico, il quale si differenzia dai metodi comunemente seguiti nelle scuole, perché lascia un'assoluta liberta all'iniziativa individuale del fanciullo, cercando coltivare questa senza forzare o mutarne, o comprimerne il libero sviluppo il fanciullo apprende non per la imposizione dell'insegnante, ma perché vuole apprendere, perché l'insegnamento e parte del gioco, della sua libera e spontanea attività. Scuole che seguono il metodo Montessori vi sono in Italia e in altri paesi dell'Europe. Da poco tempo ne sono sorte in America ed hanno avuto ed hanno grandi risultati pratici.

Abstract/Notes: The purpose of this qualitative thesis was to find out whether Montessori pedagogy based Montessori day care center Aurinkoleijona supports the self-management of the child, and what kind of experiences the parents of children have in the subject area. The thesis is a case study, and in the theoretical part it raises the documents guiding the early childhood education as well as the history of Finnish early childhood education, and the alternative pedagogics. Further, the thesis immerses Montessori pedagogy and the development of self-regulation and self-management of the child. At present, children's learning and learning difficulties are topical themes. Finland has been in the elite of the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) for many years, but recently the results have weakened. Learning difficulties are influenced by many factors, but one factor that can be considered is the difficulties that are faced in self-management. In order for a child to have a good start in the development of self-management, attention should be paid to supporting it in early childhood education. With Finnish early childhood education being high quality, it provides a good foundation for the overall development of each child, including self-management. The thesis deals with the development of practical early childhood education in the Montessori day care center Aurinkoleijona by exploring potential development targets for supporting the child's self-management. The research questions are: "How does the Montessori pedagogy support the child’s self-management?" and "What kind of experiences do parents have with their child’s or children’s self-management?". Research methods were observation and a questionnaire for the parents of the child. Material was analyzed by utilizing content analysis. The results show that the operational environment of the Montessori day care center Aurinkoleijona has been created in a way that it supports the self-management of the child by many means. Versatile functions, calmness of the atmosphere, furniture that are in the child’s level, and the role of adults in the environment enable a good basis for supporting the self-management of the child. Parents’ experiences of day care center were positive. Children in the day care center are growing up to be independent, and self-directed future schoolchildren, who take others into consideration. / Tämän laadullisen opinnäytetyön tavoitteena oli selvittää, tukeeko montessoripedagogiikkaan pohjautuva Montessori-päiväkoti Aurinkoleijona lapsen oman toiminnan ohjausta sekä minkälaisia kokemuksia lasten vanhemmilla on tästä ohjauksesta. Opinnäytetyö on tapaustutkimus, jonka teoriaosiossa nostetaan esille varhaiskasvatusta ohjaavien asiakirjojen lisäksi suomalaisen varhaiskasvatuksen historiaa sekä vaihtoehto pedagogiikoita. Työssä syvennytään lisäksi tarkemmin Montessoripedagogiikkaan sekä lapsen itsesäätelyn ja oman toiminnan ohjauksen kehittymiseen. Tänä päivänä lasten oppiminen ja oppimisvaikeudet ovat ajankohtainen puheenaihe. Suomi on loistanut PISA-tutkimuksen kärjessä monia vuosia, mutta viime vuosina tulokset ovat heikentyneet. Oppimisvaikeuksien taustalla vaikuttavat monet tekijät, mutta yhtenä tekijänä voidaan pitää vaikeuksia oman toiminnan ohjauksessa. Jotta lapsi saa hyvän alun oman toiminnan ohjauksen kehittymiseen, on varhaiskasvatuksessa kiinnitettävä huomiota sen tukemiseen. Suomalaisen varhaiskasvatuksen ollessa laadukasta, se mahdollistaa hyvän pohjan jokaisen lapsen kokonaisvaltaiselle kehitykselle, sisältäen myös oman toiminnan ohjauksen. Opinnäytetyö kiinnittyy käytännön varhaiskasvatustyön kehittämiseen Montessori-päiväkoti Aurinkoleijonassa tutkimalla mahdollisia kehittämiskohteita lapsen oman toiminnan ohjauksen tukemisen osalta. Tutkimuskysymykset ovat: ”Millä tavoin Montessori-pedagogiikka tukee lapsen oman toiminnan ohjausta?” sekä ”Minkälaisia kokemuksia vanhemmilla on lapsensa/lastensa oman toiminnan ohjauksesta?”. Tutkimusaineiston keruumenetelminä käytettiin havainnointia ja lapsen vanhemmille suunnattua kyselylomaketta. Aineisto analysointiin sisällönanalyysia hyödyntämällä. Tutkimustulokset osoittavat, että Montessori-päiväkoti Aurinkoleijonan toimintaympäristö on luotu niin, että se tukee lapsen oman toiminnan ohjausta monin keinoin. Monipuoliset toiminnot, ilmapiirin rauhallisuus, kalusteiden lapsentasoisuus ja aikuisten rooli ympäristössä mahdollistavat hyvän pohjan lapsen oman toiminnan ohjauksen tukemiselle. Lasten vanhempien kokemukset päiväkodista olivat positiivisia. Lapsista kasvaa päiväkodissa itsenäisiä, omaohjautuvia ja toiset huomioon ottavia tulevia koululaisia.

Abstract/Notes: En el año del 150 aniversario del nacimiento de Maria Montessori ponemos su figura enfrente de su contemporánea Caroline Pratt, menos conocida en los ambientes pedagógicos europeos, pero igualmente imbuida de la pasión por una educación al servicio de una infancia activa, competente y autónoma. Después de repasar sucintamente las biografías paralelas de ambas, se señalan las diferencias entre las pedagogías de cada una de ellas especialmente en lo relativo a los materiales y al juego de construcción. Se constata, al mismo tiempo, la amplia coincidencia en los ideales por los que ambas trabajan toda su vida y se termina formulando una propuesta de complementariedad entre ambas, sugiriendo la conveniencia de enriquecer la pedagogía montessoriana con la incorporación de los bloques de madera maciza diseñados por Caroline Pratt y del juego de construcción como un recurso ordinario más.

Abstract/Notes: Maria Montessori’s method left a deep and rich renovating educational footprint in the city of Barcelona before the Franco regime (1939). An active, cheerful, playful, co-educational, science-based system, in which the child is the protagonist. The teacher accompanies the students, trying to respect their rhythms in their personal learning itinerary. The Montessori revolution was possible because the Mancomunitat de Catalunya, the Diputació de Barcelona and the municipal administration believed in it, created schools, Case dei Bambini, and promoted continuous teacher training through courses, seminars, and Summer Schools. / El mètode de la doctora Maria Montessori va deixar una profunda i rica petjada educativa i renovadora a la ciutat de Barcelona abans del règim franquista (1939).
