| Montessori Education Program Description |
| The proposed revision of the M.Ed. in Montessori Education, featuring a reduction in credit hours from thirty-six (36) to thirty-three (33), a change in curriculum, and the introduction of four areas of concentration (Birth to Three, Early Childhood Education, Elementary Education, and Professional areas of concentration), is designed to address contemporary pedagogical requirements. These adjustments aim to cater to the evolving needs of the workforce in the Montessori sector. By incorporating these changes, the program seeks to continuously equip professionals to effectively engage with children, families, and communities, fostering meaningful educational transformation. The updated curriculum with core values of the Montessori approach, emphasizes Diverse Voices, <br>Inclusive Practices, and Educational Change. |
