Excerpt from The Montessori System Examined
The aim of this monograph is probably sufficiently indicated by the title. The purpose is to examine generally the educational doctrines promulgated by Dr. Maria Montessori, so as, first, to bring out their relation to one another and to other similar doctrines elsewhere held; and, second, to ascertain, as far as the author may, the contribution which Dr. Montessori has to offer to American education.
My indebtedness, especially in proportion to the volume of matter, is great. To my colleagues on an investigating trip to Rome, Miss Annie E. Moore and Professor M. B. Hillegas, I am indebted for very considerable assistance in the ordering of ideas and in reaching definite conclusions. My best thanks are due to the same two colleagues and to Professors John Dewey and Naomi Norsworthy for reading the manuscript and for making valuable suggestions. It would be unfair, however, to hold any one save the author responsible for the opinions herein expressed.
