Abstract/Notes: The math curriculum of the Montessori system of education for children ages 3–12 is distinctive, incorporating multiple manipulatives and educational practices which have theoretical and empirical support in research. However, studies investigating the math achievement and learning of Montessori students and alumni have not consistently found Montessori programmes to be more effective than conventional or other programmes. Through a detailed review of such studies, we find that a Montessori advantage in math is more likely when programmes adhere to important principles of Montessori education, when students have had longer immersion in Montessori programmes, and when assessments are more conceptual in nature. We suggest that future research should take into account programme fidelity and enrolment duration, and outline other directions for future research.

Abstract/Notes: As Montessori programs in public schools expand, Montessori education is becoming available to a more diverse population of American students than ever before. Students of color have a significant presence in public Montessori schools; over a quarter of students in whole-school public Montessori programs are African American. As these programs grow, researchers have increasingly directed their attention to demonstrating that Montessori works in public schools; however, few studies have examined outcomes for African American students at the lower elementary level, when critical reading and math skills are being established. This study sought to answer the question, how effectively does Montessori instruction promote achievement for African American third grade students in reading and math, compared to similar traditional schools and other public school choice programs?

Freiarbeit und Leistung in der Montessori-Pädagogik [Free Work and Achievement in Montessori Pedagogy]

Montessori method of education - Criticism, interpretation, etc.

See More

Abstract/Notes: In diesem Band wird an 24 Praxis-Beispielen aus der Montessori-Freiarbeit – allesamt erprobt und mit zahlreichen Fotos veranschaulicht – aufgezeigt, wie Leistung in der Freiarbeit gewertschätzt und bewertet werden kann. Vor dem Hintergrund Maria Montessoris Verständnisses vom Kind und seiner Leistung, sich selbst zu erschaffen und weiterzuentwickeln, wird der pädagogische Leistungsbegriff erläutert und mit den gesellschaftlichen Ansprüchen verknüpft. Die Forderung einer Kompetenzorientierung, nach der sich eine Leistungsbewertung ausrichten sollte, wird unter die Lupe genommen und mit der Freiarbeit im Sinne Maria Montessoris verbunden. [This volume uses 24 practical examples from Montessori free work - all tried and tested and illustrated with numerous photos - to show how performance in free work can be valued and evaluated. Against the background of Maria Montessori's understanding of the child and its ability to create and develop itself, the educational concept of achievement is explained and linked to social demands. The demand for a competence orientation, according to which a performance assessment should be based, is examined closely and linked to free work in the sense of Maria Montessori.]
