Angeline Lillard Presents
Montessori: The Science behind the Genius (Video; 10 parts)

In this lively and engaging video lecture based on her award-winning book, Dr. Angeline Lillard presents Montessori’s theoretical principles, the science research that has followed them, and how they are implemented in a Montessori classroom.

This DVD is the best introduction to the Montessori Method, particularly for parents who might be skeptical as to what an “alternative” educational method can bring that traditional, factory-style schools do not. “
