Abstract/Notes: En el año del 150 aniversario del nacimiento de Maria Montessori ponemos su figura enfrente de su contemporánea Caroline Pratt, menos conocida en los ambientes pedagógicos europeos, pero igualmente imbuida de la pasión por una educación al servicio de una infancia activa, competente y autónoma. Después de repasar sucintamente las biografías paralelas de ambas, se señalan las diferencias entre las pedagogías de cada una de ellas especialmente en lo relativo a los materiales y al juego de construcción. Se constata, al mismo tiempo, la amplia coincidencia en los ideales por los que ambas trabajan toda su vida y se termina formulando una propuesta de complementariedad entre ambas, sugiriendo la conveniencia de enriquecer la pedagogía montessoriana con la incorporación de los bloques de madera maciza diseñados por Caroline Pratt y del juego de construcción como un recurso ordinario más.

Abstract/Notes: The purpose of this study was to identify competencies for the professional component of a program for preparing nursery school teachers in Guyana. It incorporated a definition of the purposes of the national Nursery Education Program in Guyana and a definition of the behaviors associated with teaching in the nursery schools through: (1) A review of the literature encompassing programs for young children; roles of teachers in programs for young children; competencies for teachers of young children and competency-based teacher education. (2) The development of an interview schedule to gather data about the purposes of nursery schools and the behaviors associated with teaching in the nursery schools in Guyana. (3) Use of the interview schedule to conduct personal interviews with uncertified teachers, certified teachers, supervisors, parents and lecturers attached to the Nursery Education Program in Guyana. (4) Content analysis of the responses to the interview questions. The data indicated that the respondents were aware of the purposes of nursery schools and what constitutes effective teaching in these schools. The information generated through the analysis provided the basis for the formulation of competencies for nursery school teachers in Guyana. The identified competencies are overarching; stated as behaviors to be demonstrated by certified nursery school teachers; and are categorized under the goals of the Guyana Nursery Education Program.
