description The majority of teachers in Central America are unprepared to teach early literacy. Most of them have not learned how to do it during their preservice teacher education. Numerous education programs lack resources, time, and evidence-based approaches to prepare prospective teachers of literacy. This paper shows the results of a qualitative research conducted between 2018 and 2019; it studied literacy education for preservice teachers (LEPT) at a university in El Salvador. First, an analysis of the LEPT plan was carried out based on an evidence-based conceptual framework of what teachers should know and learn to effectively teach early literacy; second, interviews were conducted with university teacher educators and prospect teachers; and third, a documentary analysis of class plans prepared by teacher educators was also carried out. The results show the characteristics, strengths and gaps of the training plan within the scope of early literacy. Conclusions and recommendations on adaptation of the preservice teacher education plans, to be consistent with current research evidence on what is and how to do effective literacy teaching, are presented.

Este artículo presenta los resultados de una investigación de tipo cualitativo realizada entre 2018 y 2019 que estudia el estado de la formación inicial docente (FID) para la enseñanza de la LEI en el programa de Licenciatura en educación básica para primer y segundo ciclo que ofrece la Universidad Centroamericana José Simeón Cañas. Para obtener la información del tema de estudio se realizó: (1) mapeo del programa de FID en el ámbito de LEI a partir de un marco conceptual basado en la evidencia sobre lo que el cuerpo docente debe saber y poder hacer para enseñar de forma exitosa la LEI; (2) entrevistas al cuerpo docente formador y docentes en formación; y (3) análisis documental de planes de clase. Los resultados evidencian vacíos en cuanto a fundamentos teóricos y orientaciones metodológicas sobre la enseñanza de LEI; el programa no asigna tiempo suficiente para enseñar con profundidad la LEI careciendo de espacios de práctica real. No se consideran los mecanismos para modelar y reflexionar junto al cuerpo docente formador la práctica pedagógica a partir de la evidencia. Se recomienda la revisión y adecuación del plan de formación inicial apegado a la evidencia sobre la enseñanza de LEI para garantizar la vinculación entre qué se enseña sobre LEI en la universidad y cómo hacerlo en el aula real en el nivel de primaria.
