Abstract/Notes: Depuis près de dix ans, la méthode Montessori adaptée aux personnes âgées connaît un essor particulièrement significatif dans les pays francophones. Cette revue de littérature a pour objectif de synthétiser les travaux scientifiques ayant étudié ses effets, ses bénéfices éventuels, mais également ses limites. Depuis la fin des années 1990, le nombre d’études sur la méthode Montessori a eu tendance à augmenter à travers le monde. Ces études mettent, en général, en évidence des bénéfices significatifs sur l’engagement dans les activités, les comportements, les affects ainsi que sur certaines capacités fonctionnelles, comme l’alimentation. Des effets bénéfiques ont également été retrouvé sur les aidants familiaux ou professionnels. Un nombre important de ces recherches souffrent cependant de limites méthodologiques. D’autres travaux doivent être envisagés dans le futur, en particulier dans les pays francophones, compte tenu de leur variabilité culturelle, pour mieux en cerner les effets et conditions de mises en œuvre effectives. [For nearly ten years, the Montessori method adapted to the elderly has experienced particularly significant growth in French-speaking countries. This literature review aims to synthesize the scientific work that has studied its effects, its possible benefits, but also its limits. Since the end of the 1990s, the number of studies on the Montessori method has tended to increase throughout the world. These studies generally highlight significant benefits on engagement in activities, behaviors, affects and on certain functional abilities, such as eating. Beneficial effects have also been found on family or professional caregivers. However, a large number of these studies suffer from methodological limitations.]

Thus, this study examined the differential effectiveness of Montessori didactic and Direct Instructional methods on reasoning ability of children with hearing impairment in Lagos State. Te sample size was 29 pupils comprising 15 male and 14 female pupils with hearing impairment. Te Reasoning Ability Test was used to gather relevant data while mean, standard deviation, mean difference, Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) and Least Significant Difference (LSD) were the statistical tool used to analyse the data. The study found that both Montessori Didactic Material and Direct Instruction method were efficacious in teaching pupils with hearing impairment. However, the former was more effective. The teaching methods do not have significant gender effect on pupils with hearing impairment. It was recommended that Montessori didactic method should be employed in teaching elementary school pupils because it encourages active participation in learning process in form of self- direction and independence not minding gender, intellectual and economic disparities

Abstract/Notes: Kindergarten, as an important carrier for children's transition from family to society, is a place for the development and practice of preschool education, and plays a role that cannot be ignored in today's preschool education. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to implement the achievements of contemporary excellent early childhood education concepts into the architectural design of kindergartens. In recent years, Montessori's educational philosophy has attracted widespread attention in China. The Montessori teaching method is based on early childhood education, early childhood psychology, physiology, and other aspects. Its core theory coincides with the domestic concept of quality education, and has become a key topic of preschool education in the Ministry of Education. The purpose of this paper is to effectively integrate Montessori education concepts with kindergarten design and provide theoretical support for kindergarten design. Montessori's educational philosophy specifically elaborates on the natural development concept, sensitive period education, and sensory education of young children. These concepts are embodied in the "environmental education" aspect of kindergarten architectural design. By creating indoor and outdoor environments suitable for children's development, arranging rich functional spaces, and designing reasonable scales, colors, and shapes, children can develop freely in a "prepared environment".
