Montessori: Pathways to Social Reform
This video puts forward Montessori’s international outreach to
serve children in need as a comprehensive world mission of Montessori education both yesterday and today. Beginning with
the Rome Centenary Conference in January, 2007, including
commentary by Renilde Montessori, the video documents
Montessori’s historic focus on the cause of children in difficult
social environments. The video emphasizes the revolutionary
aspects of Montessori education not only in serving the
underserved, but in preparing young adults who aspire to solve
the problems of the future. Jointly produced by NAMTA and
AMI, this video is part of a Centenary trilogy of short
subjects drawing attention to Montessori’s unique contribution
to educational reform over the past century. (2007; 15 minutes) |
