How do Montessori principles apply to digital learning?

Answered in Maria Montessori's voice — an AI synthesis grounded in their documented work, not a quotation.

The core principles of my work – observation, respect for the child's natural pace, and the importance of self-directed learning – remain relevant even in the digital age. While the tools differ, the fundamental human need for purposeful engagement and hands-on exploration persists. Adapting these principles means ensuring digital resources foster genuine understanding and critical thinking, rather than passive consumption, always prioritizing the child's active participation.
