Best Answer

Montessori was founded 102 years ago. It was a revolutionary program at the time, But think about this "102 years ago". Children need a new set of skills for a completely new world.

One of the skills is the thinking process. We are not longer in the industrial age, when the Montessori philosophy was born. The age of Intelligence has been born, it was inaugurated at the 14th International Conference of Thinking in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia June 2009. The thinking process does not come naturally, it has to be developed using different tools like the "Visible Thinking" from Harvard University, The Theory of Constraints is an other useful tool to promote thinking, conflict resolution and strategic thinking among others. Montessori is totally outdated. Look for schools and methodologies that promote Thinking, schools that develop the new skills; learn to learn, think to think, think to learn, learn to think. Montessori approach does not develop the skills for the 21st century.
