After deciding to work with normal children, Maria Montessori educated herself about the education field, which was new to her. The works of experimental psychologists, educational pedagogues, and anthropologists influenced Montessori. Through these studies, Montessori learnt the importance of sensory education, the value of movements and auto-education, which further enabled her to develop a clear understanding of freedom and discipline.
