蒙台梭利教学法中国化的困境与对策

On the Dilemmas and Their Solutions of the Sinicization of Montessori Education Method

我国在引进蒙台梭利教学法时出现了以下误区:缺乏对蒙台梭利教育核心价值的掌握,功利主义严重;只注重蒙台梭利教具的操作而忽视其教育内涵,形式主义非常严重;可以操作蒙台梭利教具的教师较多,而掌握其教育本质的教师则相对缺少。针对以上存在的误区,我们必须提出相应策略,以期实现蒙台梭利教学法的中国化。

Some problems were caused when Montessori education method was introduced to and spread in Chi-na.These problems include:the core educational value of the method is not well understood which makes the prac-tice of the method too utilitarian;it is the operation of Montessori teaching instruments but not the connotation of the method itself that attracts the users which makes the formalism prevalent in the field; and the number of teachers who can operate Montessori teaching instruments is bigger than that of teachers who understand the educational na-ture of the method.This paper puts forward some solutions to these questions and hopes that the sinicization of the method is well achieved.
