INT 501 - Montessori Pedagogy I (MIL)


This course begins with an “index” to understanding the Montessori approach. The following topics are included in this index: the cosmological perspective, Montessori developmental insights, the “prepared” environment/atmosphere, the Montessori vision for humanity, and the concept/view of macrophase wisdom. These indices form the general context for further exploration of the details. In addition to the index, this course introduces the elements of what Maria Montessori referred to as “The Preparation of the Teacher.” Other theory lectures/discussions include: Planes of Development, Needs and Tendencies, and The Prepared Environment.
