Lubie Wentworth; Felix Wentworth Publisher: Routledge Print ISBN: 9780805831368, 0805831363 eText ISBN: 9781135672850, 1135672857 Edition: 1st Pages: 168 Copyright year: 1999 Format: EPUB Available from $ 23.98 USD SKU 9781135672850R90 Although Montessori's name is almost universally known in education circles today, and there are countless nursery schools throughout the world using the Montessori Method, the real core of her thinking has remained largely misunderstood. Most people regard the method as a system for the education of very young children. And most who have some direct experience of it, either as parent or teacher, would regard it as involving a certain set of procedures and specialized educational materials with clear and elaborate instructions for their use. However, the essence of Montessori's philosophy of education is in reality far broader than this, and contains a powerful message for educators everywhere. What is less well-known about Montessori's work is that she began by establishing the effectiveness of her approach at the pre-elementary level, but also strongly encouraged the extension of her method to the higher levels of education. Wentworth's purpose in writing this book is to elucidate this vital aspect of Maria Montessori's life's work and to show how it applies to real-life teaching situations. She believed that by transforming the process of children's education she could help to transform the attitudes of the adults they will later become, and so those of society and the world at large--a message she promoted as vitally relevant to the future of humankind as a whole.
