"Over a century ago, Dr. Maria Montessori discovered through scientific
observations of children that they are not empty vessels to be filled --
they are intrinsically motivated doers. She saw that providing a
hands-on learning environment that valued choice, concentration,
collaboration, community, curiosity, and real-world application produced
lifelong learners who viewed "work" as something interesting
and fulfilling instead of drudgery to be avoided."
