Abstract/Notes: El presente artículo recoge, en retrospectiva, la experiencia del Primer Congreso Pedagógico Nacional realizado en Colombia en 1917. Se ubican cuatro tensiones fundamentales: el manejo de las escuelas normales, los métodos de enseñanza, los textos y los programas escolares y, por último, las tensiones entre dos formas de pedagogía, la conservadora y la liberal. Además, se señala como uno de los avances principales la creación, en marzo de 1927, del Instituto Pedagógico Nacional, que al trasegar por el método Montessori y fomentar los principios de la escuela activa contribuyó a la modernización de la pedagogía en el país y, hacia mediados de siglo xx, la conformación de la Universidad Pedagógica Nacional (UPN). [This article takes a retrospective look at the experience from the First National Pedagogical Congress that took place in Colombia in 1917. Four fundamental tensions are identified: the management of normal schools, the teaching methods, the school texts and programs and, finally, the strains between two ways of pedagogical thinking, the conservative and the liberal. Furthermore, the creation of the National Pedagogical Institute in March 1927 is seen as one of the main breakthroughs that, by changing to the Montessori’s method and encouraging the progressive education’s principles, contributed to the pedagogical modernization of the country and, by mid-twentieth century, to the establishment of the National Pedagogical University (UPN). / Este artigo recolhe, em retrospectiva, a experiência do Primeiro Congresso Pedagógico Nacional realizado na Colômbia em 1917. Relacionam-se quatro tensões fundamentais: o gerenciamento das Escolas Normais, os métodos de ensino, os textos e os programas escolares e, por último, as tensões entre dois tipos de pedagogia, o conservador e o liberal. Além disso, como um dos avanços principais assinala-se a criação do Instituto Pedagógico Nacional, em março de 1927, que ao trasfegar pelo Método Montessori e fomentar os princípios da escola ativa, contribuiu à modernização da pedagogia no país e, por volta de meados do século xx, à conformação da Universidade Pedagógica Nacional (UPN).]

Abstract/Notes: The 1944 lectures in Colombo, hitherto unpublished, are a treasure trove of the principles of the human science on which education should be based. Maria Montessori explains the child’s powers and points out the inability of the adult to recognise the child’s inherent capabilities. She makes some significant observations of the assimilation of languages by children and offers constructive ways of supporting their process. Conversational in tone, but yet profoundly moving the analogies and anecdotes weave a coherent narrative of child development. The historical document reaches Dr. Montessori’s voice to students across the years and are a clear call to awareness of the child’s needs and the true nature of his budding personality.
