Abstract/Notes: After Rome became the capital of Italy in 1871, prestigious scientists arrived at the University of Rome. One of these scholars was the pedagogical philosopher Luigi Credaro (1860-1939). He was one of the rare Italian students of Wilhelm Wundt (1832-1920) when he went to Leipzig and attended the Institute for Experimental Psychology in the academic year 1887-1888. There he also followed the pedagogical seminars and considered the usefulness of establishing sections of practical pedagogy in Italian magisterium schools, which were teacher-training institutions. In 1904, he founded in Rome the Scuola Pedagogica (Pedagogical School). Through the school, Credaro proposed the concept of a scientific pedagogy based on the application of the results of experimental sciences in the educational field. We can suppose that this approach influenced the first generation of Italian scholars interested in experimental psychology in Rome, in particular Sante De Sanctis (1862-1935) and Maria Montessori (1870-1952). The article thus considers the hypothesis of the formation of a so-called Roman school of psychology, which created in the field of pedagogy a ground on which to develop its research and applications. It should be noted that Credaro devoted himself to the potential applications of experimental psychology in the context of the modernization of the liberal states of the 20th century. Specifically, scientific pedagogy constituted a field of application and development for Roman psychology. At the end, the foundation of psychology in Rome was influenced by a particular version of the Wundtian psychology promoted by his pupil Credaro.

Bringing More Than a Century of Practice to Writing Pedagogy in the Early Years [Chapter 4]

Abstract/Notes: In Montessori classrooms writing is taught using a pedagogy that lays claim to more than a century of practice. In the early 20th century Maria Montessori analysed the process of learning to write for the benefit of street children too young to be at school but who showed interest in writing. Montessori designed a repertoire of lessons and activities that offered the children two separate but parallel developmental pathways, one mechanical and one intellectual. The mechanical pathway had two elements: learning how to hold and control a pencil, and (for alphabetic writing) learning to distinguish individual sounds in the stream of spoken language and to match the sounds with graphic signs. The intellectual pathway also had two elements: learning to use graphic signs to (re)compose the sounds of the language into words, and learning to organise words into written discourse. When the children engaged with Montessori’s lessons and activities, they appeared to be teaching themselves to write. Because this same pedagogy is still in use today, it provides a rare opportunity to investigate an enduring educational practice through which children for more than a hundred years and in more than a hundred countries have become writers.
