Sažetak
Abstract The development of technology unquestionably encourages the development of other areas of life. The educational field is also developing under the pressure of new technologies and digital tools increasingly used in schools and simplify for teachers to work with students. They encourage student motivation, and it is known that most children today respond positively to technology. Students eagerly participate in activities such as using whiteboards or if they have the opportunity to use their mobile devices in the classroom. As technology and digital tools are increasingly implemented in teaching, especially during the global COVID-19 pandemic and distance learning, the question that arises is how Montessori schools and Montessori society are coping with the development of technology since this is something that is spreading rapidly only after the death of Marie Montessori, the initiator of the mentioned method. Given that Montessori pedagogy focuses on preparing a student for life, it is assumed that this preparation will not be possible without using information and communication technology. It has been implemented and used, and it is impossible to bypass all jobs. The only question left is what Montessori teachers and educators think, to what extent the use of technology would benefit themselves, and to what extent their students. This paper will show how different Montessori schools and experts worldwide perspectives and opinions of using digital technology and digital tools in education.
