Margaret Beagle – Montessori Life: A Publication of the American Montessori Society, 2024
Montessori came to the United States at the turn of the 20th century, and the Method was, at first, accepted with enthusiasm.

Michelle M. Cumming; Cristina Criado; Jeehyun Park; Alexandra Arango; Maria L. Rodriguez; Michael Ali – Grantee Submission, 2023

Therefore, in…

Prenatal exposure to alcohol causes a pattern of brain-based deficits and is associated with behavioral challenges (Wozniak et al., 2019).

Because children are randomly assigned to either receive NC Pre-K (treatment) or not (control) in an RCT, differences in outcomes can be causally attributed to…

But too often such team meetings fail to provide concrete ideas for things the teacher can do. Rather than simply discussing the mounting challenges,…

Ramsay, Judith; Terras, Melody M. – E-Learning and Digital Media, 2015
The use of technology to support learning is well recognised.
