Abstract/Notes: Article presents a theoretical analysis of Montessori’s concept of education for cognitive and socio-emotional autonomy. The main aim is prove a unique contemporary validity of theoretical and methodological aspects of this educational philosophy. First, the cycle of self-discipline development, as observed by Maria Montessori, has been described with reference to different forms of pedagogical actions, helping children to transform from perceiving classroom rules of behavior as external to self-direction, deeply grounded in internal needs for autonomy and selfrealization. Then, deep analogies between Montessori pedagogy and contemporary theories of self-regulation by B. Zimmerman has been shown. As a summary, “Decalogue of Montessori Teacher” has been reminded, as a set of rules for everyday educational work based on the principle of “desired non-interference”.

Abstract/Notes: The theoretical part of the paper deals with the description of Montessori pedagogy and its outlook on the teacher’s personality. In the application part, it provides the methodology background to the research based on a quantitative content analysis method that deals with academic journals and papers with the subject of pedagogy in general, pre-school, primary education and pedagogy for special educational needs in Slovakia in context of the articles about the Montessori pedagogy as a possible source of an informal education.

Abstract/Notes: U zadnjim desetljećima sve veći broj znanstvenika i pedagoga praktičara pokazuje interes za Montessori pedagogiju, provjerava je u praksi i potvrđuje da je riječ o modernoj, vremenu primjerenoj pedagogiji koja odgovara na razvojne potrebe suvremene djece i mladih. Brojna istraživanja pokazuju kako djeca iz Montessori škola, u usporedbi s djecom iz standardnih škola, pokazuju bolju motivaciju za učenje, višestruke interese, samostalnost i pozitivan odnos prema učenju te veću odgovornost prema zajednici. Istraživanja euroznanosti i razvojne psihologije potvrđuju postavke Montessori pedagogije o individualnom planu razvoja, koji prolazi određene stupnjeve (senzibilna razdoblja, prozori učenja) te o potrebi didaktički obliko vanog okruženja kao pomoći u individualnom razvoju. Zahtjev za slobodom, samostalnosti i samoaktivnosti Montessori je, za razliku od emancipatorske pedagogije i sociokonstruktivizma, postavila u okvire razvojne i moralne slobode i jasno defi nirala uvjete slobode i pretpostavke samostalnosti djeteta. Sloboda shvaćena kao izgradnja kompetencija za djelovanje – cilj je, ali i put, koji dijete prolazi u svome razvoju i na kojemu treba sigurnost, zaštićenost, praćenje i pomoć odraslih. Modernost Montessori pedagogije treba tražiti u znanstveno utemeljenoj psihologiji razvoja, u pedagoški oblikovanoj ponudi učenja i u pedagoškom etosu odgajatelja. [In recent decades an increasing number of scholars and pedagogues have been showing interest in the educational approach developed by Maria Montessori, applying it in practice and arguing that it is a modern and timely pedagogy that responds to the developmental needs of contemporary children and youth. Numerous surveys show that children educated in Montessori schools, in comparison to children educated in standard schools, demonstrate a greater motivation to learn, have a multiplicity of interests, display independence and a positive stance towards learning, as well as an increased sense of responsibility towards the community. Research in neuroscience and developmental psychology confi rms the hypotheses laid down by Montessori pedagogy about the individual development plan as evolving through certain stages (sensitive periods, learning windows) and about the need to have a didactically formulated environment that will support individual development. Unlike the emancipatory pedagogy and socio-constructivism, Montessori has placed the requirement for freedom, autonomy and self-activity within the bounds of a developmental and moral freedom and clearly defi ned the conditions of the freedom and the assumptions of the child’s autonomy. Freedom interpreted as a development of competencies for action represents the aim, but also the journey a child goes through during the development period when it needs safety, protection, attention and support from the adults. The contemporariness of Montessori pedagogy is to be found in scientifically-based developmental psychology, in pedagogically formulated teaching and in the pedagogical ethos of the teacher. / In den letzten Jahrzehnten wächst die Zahl von Wissenschaft lern und pädagogischen Praktikern, die sich mit der Montessori-Pädagogik beschäft igen, ihre Th esen in der Praxis überprüfen und die Meinung vertreten, dass es um eine moderne, zeitgemäße Pädagogik handelt, die auf Entwicklungsbedürfnisse der heutigen Kinder und Jugendlichen antwortet. Zahlreiche Untersuchungen bestätigen, dass die Kinder aus den Montessori-Schulen im Vergleich mit den Kindern aus den Standardschulen eine höhere Lernmotivation, vielfältigere Interessen, Selbständigkeit und positives Verhältnis zum Lernen sowie eine größere Verantwortung gegenüber der Gemeinschaft besitzen. Die im Rahmen von Neurowissenschaft en und Entwicklungspsychologie unternommenen Untersuchungen bestätigen die Hypothesen der Montessori-Pädagogik über den individuellen Entwicklungsplan, der bestimmte Stufen durchläuft (sensible Etappen, Lernfenster) sowie die Notwendigkeit einer didaktisch gestalteten Umwelt als individueller Entwicklungshilfe. Die Forderung nach der Freiheit, Selbständigkeit und Selbstaktivität stellte Montessori, im Unterschied zu emanzipatorischer Pädagogik und sozialem Konstruktivismus in den Rahmen der moralischen und Entwicklungsfreiheit und defi nierte klar die Voraussetzungen für die Freiheit und Selbständigkeit des Kindes. Die Freiheit, begriff en als Aufb au von Handlungskompetenzen, stellt das Ziel, aber auch den Weg dar, den das Kind in seiner Entwicklung zurücklegt und auf dem es Sicherheit, Geborgenheit, Hilfe und Aufsicht durch Erwachsene benötigt. Die Modernität der Montessori-Pädagogik ist in der wissenschaft lich begründeten Entwicklungspsychologie, in den pädagogisch aufb ereiteten Lernangeboten und dem pädagogischen Ethos der Erzieher zu suchen.]

Abstract/Notes: Ovaj, u osnovi metodološki rad, bavi se demonstracijom upotrebe faktorske analize u ispitivanju poželjnosti alternativnih odgojnih koncepata kod studentske populacije Sveučilišta u Zagrebu. Istraživanje je provedeno na slučajnom, reprezentativnom i stratificiranom uzorku (N=360). Skala poželjnosti osnovnih pedagoških koncepata sastojala se od 29 čestica vezanih uz tradicionalni odgojni koncept i alternativne pedagoške koncepate: Waldorf, Montessori i Summerhill. Primjenom faktorske analize pod komponentnim modelom uz GK kriterij za zaustavljanje ekstrakcije faktora i uz provedbu purifikacije faktorske solucije dobivene su tri latentne dimenzije: 1. NEPRIHVAĆENOST SUMMERHILLSKOG KONCEPTA, 2. TRADICIONALNI ODGOJ i 3. ODGOJ UTEMELJEN NA SAMOSTALNOSTI, IGRI I ZADOVOLJSTVU SPOZNAJOM. Prva dva faktora karakterizira neprihvaćanje summerhillskog i tradicionalnog koncepta, dok je treći faktor kombinacija ideja dviju škola— waldorfske i Montessori. Nalazi ukazuju na prihvaćanje općih pedagoških načela, ali ne i predloženih načina realizacije. Ispitanici su također neskloni pedagoškom radikalizmu. Stoga zaključujemo da su poželjne one pedagoške koncepcije koje ispitanicima ostavljaju mogućnost vlastite intervencije u primarnu i sekundarnu socijalizaciju. Metodološka strana rada pokazala je da poštivanje i primjena osnovnih metodoloških pretpostavki uspješno uklanja „višak” varijabli iz interpretacije, što interpretaciju čini transparentnom, a konceptualne pretpostavke plauzibilnima. Stoga valja zaključiti da faktorska analiza nije sama po sebi primjerena podacima, već da ovisi o njihovoj strukturi pa ju u većoj ili manjoj mjeri moramo prilagoditi podacima.
