Abstract/Notes: Dynamic changes taking place in the contemporary social reality pose new challenges for Polish schools. The necessity to depart from a deep-rooted educational tradition and a school model which does not suit the current conditions prompts the search for alternative solutions. Consequently, for several years there has been an increase in interest in various educational offers, and education in line with the assumptions of Maria Montessori’s pedagogical concept has an important place among them. The educational process realized in Montessori institutions based on the child’s activity, subjective treatment of the pupil, respect for his individual needs, abilities and interests, support for his versatile development become a catalyst for self-development, self-education and self-training, which are so much expected from the contemporary generation of students. However, the growing popularity of Montessori institutions raises the question of how much their choice is the result of parents’ rational decision and real conviction about the value of the Montessori education system. The analysis of the empirical material gathered for this study revealed the surveyed parents’ motives for selecting a kindergarten facility for their child, as well as their expectations and opinions about education in the kindergarten working on the basis of Maria Montessori pedagogy. / Dynamiczne zmiany zachodzące we współczesnej rzeczywistości społecznej stawiają nowe wyzwania przed polskim szkolnictwem. Konieczność odejścia od głęboko zakorzenionej tradycji edukacyjnej i niedostosowanego do obecnych warunków modelu szkoły skłania do poszukiwania alternatywnych rozwiązań. W związku z tym od kilkunastu lat obserwuje się wzrost zainteresowania różnorodnymi ofertami edukacyjnymi, wśród których ważne miejsce zajmuje kształcenie zgodne z założeniami koncepcji pedagogicznej Marii Montessori.Oparcie realizowanego w placówkach montessoriańskich procesu edukacyjnego na aktywności dziecka, podmiotowe traktowanie wychowanka, respektowanie jego indywidualnych potrzeb, możliwości i zainteresowań, wspieranie jego wszechstronnego rozwoju staje się katalizatorem samorozwoju, samokształcenia i samowychowania, których tak bardzo oczekuje się od współczesnego pokolenia uczniów. Rosnąca popularność placówek montessoriańskich skłania jednak do postawienia pytania, na ile ich wybór jest efektem racjonalnej decyzji rodziców i faktycznego przekonania o wartości systemu pedagogicznego Montessori. Analiza materiału empirycznego zgromadzonego na potrzeby niniejszego opracowania ujawniła motywy, jakimi kierowali się badani rodzice, dokonując wyboru placówki przedszkolnej dla swojego dziecka, a także ich oczekiwania i opinie na temat edukacji realizowanej w przedszkolach wykorzystujących pedagogikę Marii Montessori.

Abstract/Notes: Albert Bandura, the leading pioneer in the study of self-regulation, has defined the term as the child's ability to self-educate, self-direct, regulate motivation, and learn to think about what she is learning (1994). Lev Vygotsky's theory that children can be taught to think independently about how to solve problems expands upon Bandura's work (1978). Though Montessori did not use the term "self-regulation," the descriptions of inner discipline, or "normalization," in her writings are clearly related to this concept. Because Montessori classrooms emphasize developing behaviors associated with self-regulation, Lander University's Montessori Teacher Education Program chose to focus on this as a topic of research in a 3-year study funded by a 2004 congressionally directed grant. Findings showed positive results for Montessori children in ratings of self-regulation and academic performance which affirm the effectiveness of Montessori classroom practice in fostering positive work habits and internal motivation. The authors hope that these results will lead more public school administrators, particularly those in small rural settings where programs of school choice are rare, to consider Montessori a viable option.
