Objective: this paper aims to describe the first phase of a project whose general goal was to develop a consensus-based set of advanced practice nurse competencies applicable to Latin American countries and, based on these competencies, produce an advanced practice nurse curricular prototype adapted to Latin American countries. The project was framed in a competency-based approach to advanced practice nursing education. The specific aims of the first phase of the project described in this paper were: 1) to identify a set of potential advanced practice nurse competencies that would serve as the template for Core Advanced Practice Nurse Competencies in Latin American countries and 2) to establish consensus for Core Advanced Practice Nurse Competencies in Latin American countries. Method: advanced practice nurse competencies were derived from a comprehensive review of published competencies and informed the development of a survey designed to assess the relevance of advanced practice nurse competencies in Latin American countries. The survey was distributed to nurse leaders and nurse educators. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: consensus for Core Competencies was established. Conclusion: the Core Advanced Practice Nurse Competencies presented can provide a structured framework to build educational programs aligned to the needs of the regional environment.

This paper analyzes the official proposal for recent history teaching. For such purpose, we draw on national education laws (1993 and 2006), the curricula approved from 1995 to present for the secondary level (at the national level and at the Province of Buenos Aires) and regulations of the commemorations--especially March 24th and September 16th--. This analysis will be made in relation to the representations of memory and the progress of historiography about recent past, to consider up to what extent school contents have witnessed an impact due to changes in these narratives.

This paper explores how teachers' representations mediate their interpretation of the prescribed curriculum and their creation of syllabi in the EFL Teacher Education Program in the School of Humanities, Mar del Plata State University, Argentina. Bourdieu's analytic notion of habitus is employed to interpret these views, derived from actors' narratives. Data were gathered during semi flexible interviews administered to a selection of four professors. Results suggest that instructors pedagogically translate the prescribed curriculum. Bourdieu's categories indicate how each professor's curriculum stems from an objectively obtained lector or auctor habitus. In the pedagogic translation carried out there emerges the domesticated curriculum--or the exercise of symbolic violence. Finally, although this research has a limited number of subjects and is interpretive in character, teachers' representations nevertheless surface as curricular content. Regarding future applications, theorizing on these problematics would allow for their treatment in peer communities aimed at achieving harmonically diverse curricula. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
