ABOUT
Montessori
Research on Montessori Education
The Association Montessori Internationale was founded in 1929 by Dr. Maria Montessori to maintain the integrity of her life’s work. This section features various research studies.
Research and Speakers on Montessori Education
The Association Montessori International of the United States (AMI/USA) brings the principles of Dr. Maria Montessori to the education of children. Current research is highlighted along with key researchers and speakers from outside the Montessori community.
Study of Maria Montessori’s Methods
Dr. Maria Montessori, the first woman physician in Italy, opened a school in January, 1907. Dr. Angeline Lillard, professor of psychology at the University of Virginia, has been studying Montessori methods for more than two decades.
Montessori Articles and Lectures
The Michael Olaf Company has provided information on how to use Montessori philosophy in homes and schools since 1982, and has provided the highest quality of materials, toys, and books for children from birth to 12 years.
“Not in the service of any social or political creed should the teacher work, but in the service of the complete human being, able to exercise in freedom a self-disciplined will and judgment, unperverted by prejudice, and undistorted by fear.” — Maria Montessori
