Abstract/Notes: This action research paper investigates the integration of AI-powered tools, specifically ChatGPT, to develop individualized lesson plans with the aim of alleviating teacher stress and reducing workload. Drawing upon theoretical frameworks such as Self-Efficacy Theory and the Technology Acceptance Model, the study explores the potential of AI technology to enhance classroom experiences. The research questions addressed in this study include 1) to identify the advantages and disadvantages of using ChatGPT in a classroom setting and 2) to assess whether integrating ChatGPT into a Montessori classroom can positively impact student and teacher learning. Qualitative data was collected over a five-week intervention in an Early Childhood classroom within a private Montessori school. The findings offer valuable insights into the role of AI tools in education, shedding light on potential benefits and challenges within the unique context of Montessori education. Further research is needed to analyze the impact of utilizing AI tools, specifically, ChatGPT in lesson planning on teacher well-being and workload.

Abstract/Notes: In The Child Is the Teacher, De Stefano tells Dr. Maria Montessoris (1870-1952) story by providing a logical, plausible set of explanations based on data. She seamlessly integrates materials from primary and secondary sources, in multiple languages, into the ongoing narrative. This volume is a stellar example of the appropriate use of primary source documents and archival materials. The inclusion of multiple viewpoints on the issues presented provides an even-handed retrospective. The book is divided into five parts, each with its own set of copious notes.

Abstract/Notes: The aim of this article is to synthesise the results of a qualitative study on Montessori early childhood education teachers in Poland regarding the concept of meanings given to instability, chaos and change in their professional everyday life. The research was conducted among a group of thirty-five women working in kindergartens and primary schools using an individual, qualitative, semi-structured research interview, transcribed and analysed according to the procedure of phenomenography. The analysis of the outcome space made it possible to identify and describe three categories: I) change and instability as unbearable stressors, II) far from change and instability as something that is far away, III) change and instability as natural conditions for individual and organisational learning. The first category is related to conceptions of meaning that thematise instability as, something that is permanently experienced and, at the same time, something that ideally should not be experienced. This instability is primarily associated with authoritarian management styles and paternalistic treatment of teachers by employers and/or parents of children. Within the second category are narratives illustrating working conditions away from change and instability provided by the strong personalities of head teachers and authoritarian management. The third category refers to change and instability as a natural condition of the world. From this perspective, not only are they not negative, but quite the opposite. Instability and change provide opportunities for learning and at both individual and organisational levels.
