Translations:Discipline from Within (Montessori)/1/en

From Montepedia

In Montessori education, Discipline from Within refers to self-discipline, the ability of a child to control their own actions and make positive decisions about their behavior.[1] The order and discipline observed in a well-functioning Montessori classroom is not the result of external controls, rewards, or punishments imposed by the teacher, but rather emerges from within each child. This internal discipline is directly tied to the development of the will.
