Abstract/Notes: This article provides a brief history of the Montessori method and the ideas its founder, Dr Maria Montessori, espoused with regards to child development in the early 20th century. The centre of Dr Montessori's pedagogy embraces two seemingly paradoxical extremes: the universal characteristics of the human child, and the child as a unique, unrepeatable, respectable, and admirable individual to be unconditionally accepted as one of life's most marvellous expressions. Montessori described the two phenomena of the 'absorbent mind' and the 'sensitive periods' as being particular to children under six years of age. Current research indicating the plasticity of the young child's brain and Csikszentmihalyi's optimal experience theory corroborate her ideas many decades later. Many of Montessori's other ideas - such as multi-age classrooms and peer tutoring, a reduced emphasis on academic testing, stimulating a wider range of student interests (as in the Reggio Emilia program), focusing on intrinsic motivation and life-long learning - are now integral to current educational debates.

Abstract/Notes: Actualmente, no existe ninguna taxonomía vinculada a la metodología que agrupe diferentes elementos metodológicos en función del carácter activo e instructivo de los mismos y de la etapa educativa a la que mejor se adecúen en términos de utilización. Por ello, el objetivo de esta investigación fue establecer una taxonomía considerando 76 recursos, estrategias, técnicas y métodos didácticos obtenidos tras una revisión de la principal literatura nacional e internacional. Para establecer la taxonomía, se elaboró y validó por medio del procedimiento de juicio de expertos la escala EVEMDT. La misma, fue administrada a un panel de 30 expertos quienes asistieron a un seminario de formación impartido por los investigadores, para valorar el carácter instructivo o activo y la adecuación a la etapa educativa de los 76 elementos metodológicos. Los resultados permitieron establecer una taxonomía donde aparecen 25 y 51 recursos, estrategias, técnicas y métodos didácticos instructivos y activos respectivamente, clasificados también en función de la etapa educativa a la que mejor se adapten en términos de utilización. Se concluye que, las taxonomías con las que comparar los resultados son exiguas, aspecto que permite a esta ser un referente para los docentes a la hora de decidir qué recursos, estrategias, técnicas y métodos didácticos utilizar en función de la etapa educativa en la que se ubique el alumnado y el papel que quieran dotarle en sus procesos de aprendizaje. [Currently, there is no taxonomy linked to the methodology that groups different methodological elements based on both their active and instructive nature and the educational stage where they are best suited in terms of use. Hence, the objective of this research was to establish a taxonomy taking into account 76 resources, strategies, techniques and teaching methods obtained after a review of the main national and international literature. In order to establish the taxonomy, the EVEMDT scale was developed and validated through the expert judgment procedure. The EVEMDT scale was administered to a panel of 30 experts who attended a training seminar conducted by the researchers, to assess both the instructive or active nature and the 76 methodological elements adaptation to the educational stage. Results shows a taxonomy composed of 25 and 51 didactic resources, didactic strategies, didactic techniques and didactic methods respectively, also classified according to the educational stage where they are best suited in terms of use. It was concluded that taxonomies to compare the results are reduced, so that this taxonomy could be a reference for teachers when deciding what resources, strategies, techniques and teaching methods to use depending both the students´ educational stage and the role they want to give them in their learning processes.]
