Abstract/Notes: The Montessori Method of education was developed by Maria Montessori at the begging of the 20th century. Since then, the educational philosophy has been used worldwide, usually with child from 3 to 12 years. In our ongoing project, we seek to expand this method to university classes. Our final propose is to use non-traditional schooling approach of this philosophy to reinforce students´ engagements and improve their critical thinking. Specifically, in this paper, we propose a quantitative exercise based on the main guidelines of Montessori Method: a thoughtfully prepared and structured (online) environment that promote students´ independency to learn voluntarily. Firstly, we present the Maddison Project Database to student. The Database (open access) contains worldwide information on comparative economic growth and income levels over the very long run, including data on GDP, GDP per capital and population in the time span year 0 to 2018. Secondly, students should choose a country to analyse. Thirdly, during the courses of Economic History, Statistics and Macroeconomics, students would work on the database, through the lens of these different disciplines. Finally, students should write a report on including and mixing information from the difference perspectives.

Abstract/Notes: Multiage grouping, based on the belief that children benefit from engaging in learning environments that accommodate at least two age groups, allows for marked improvements in children's enthusiasm for learning mathematics. Children are challenged and stimulated by their interactions with multiage peers, and assessment information indicates they are developing mathematical sense, skills, and concepts from their experiences.

Toward More Joyful Learning: Integrating Play Into Frameworks of Middle Grades Teaching

Abstract/Notes: Recent efforts to define qualities of effective teaching practice have done little to capture the role of play, imagination, and creativity in classroom teaching. Drawing on theories of play and data from a two-year case study that included classroom observations, interviews, artifact collection, and surveys, the author examines the ways in which elements of play were present across the practice of eight novice middle grades teachers. Building on examples of play in these classrooms, the author proposes adding the dimension of play to frameworks of middle grades teaching—a dimension that encompasses young adolescents' engagement in classroom work that involves choice and self-direction, imaginative creations, and a nonstressed state of interest and joy.
