Montessori pedagogy is a reform-pedagogy classic that is more relevant than ever today. The pedagogy focusses on individual learning, free work time, and self-determined learning. This introduction to the practice of Montessori teaching explains the historical and biographical roots of Maria Montessori’s concept, the anthropological tenets it is based on, and the application and use of the material using numerous colour photographs. An overview of research and concluding arguments for and against the approach invite early childhood educators and teachers to engage with the approach during training and in everyday practice.
