Portada del episodio The Pros and Cons of Worksheet Learning

Descripción

In modern schools, worksheet-based learning is taken for granted. This method consumes a large amount of paper and significant time for both teachers and children, yet it is believed to be the best approach in an education industry that is busy with everything. While worksheet-based learning is a way to increase learning efficiency while reducing management costs for teachers, Maria Montessori criticized it as "busy work." Is there an alternative to this generalized method of learning? --- Yati Based in Japan, born in 1989. CEO of Motherhand and Co-Director of the nonprofit think tank Polymath Research.

episode An Introduction to Sports from Age 0 artwork

An Introduction to Sports from Age 0

Sports are a part of our lives. There are many games that are fun to both play and watch, such as soccer, tennis, swimming, and archery. Even if you aren't aiming for the Olympics or the World Cup, this episode explores how to incorporate "play"—an unparalleled opportunity for everyone to engage in and strengthen both mind and body—into the lives of infants. In this episode, we discuss sports from the perspective of Montessori education. --- Yati Based in Japan, born in 1989.

episode The Beginning of Synergetics artwork

The Beginning of Synergetics

The true essence of Montessori education is for even young children to learn advanced mathematics through their senses, such as the Pythagorean theorem and exponents. Beyond that, however, lies "Synergetics," a new mathematical system that discards Cartesian coordinates and Platonic solids. In this episode, we discussed the evolution of mathematics education itself, in a way that is more scientific than anywhere else. --- Yati Based in Japan, born in 1989.

episode Montessori Wild artwork

Montessori Wild

The 3-6 sensory education of Montessori, which is premised on being indoors, is unsatisfying. Montessori education can still evolve. This also means returning to the starting point of Maria Montessori. This episode is about the possibilities of outdoor Montessori education. --- Yati Based in Japan, born in 1989.

episode Good at Work, Good at Rest artwork

Good at Work, Good at Rest

Work is something that every living thing dedicates its life to. It might be that work should be less about economic gain and more like a "mission" to affirm the meaning of one's existence. The significance of working and the significance of resting, this time, we discussed these topics as scientifically as possible. --- Yati Based in Japan, born in 1989.
