[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do Montessori teachers research other methods of teaching or do they strictly follow Montessori methods only? As a parent, I find education fascinating and pull from many different theorists and teachers. I think it would be hard as a teacher to only stick by one person's methodology. On the play-based question, Vygotsky in particular spoke about the importance of social interaction in learning and encouraged scaffolding for social skills, yet the Montessori response here was that social skills come naturally and need little intervention. Obviously even great educational minds differ.[/quote] OP here- depends on the training program, and the school that later employs them. Personally, I like to stick to my guns. We're a diverse group of thinkers, though![/quote]
