Documentary collection: a different look at pedagogy from local history

Abstract

This article originates from a research project in progress, whose purpose is to build a theoretical corpus for the pedagogy of local History from the review of the documentary collection. The need is evident at the General Secondary Education Level, where it is motivated to implement strategies that lead to the development of cognitive skills based on pedagogical approaches that promote active and meaningful learning. For this reason, it is necessary to evaluate and look for new ways of doing education, proposing its reorientation in order to facilitate the construction of knowledge. The theoretical foundation is given by the Scientific Theory of Arias-Odón (2023), the Theorization process of Martínez (1998), making knowledge of History mandatory in the training process of students. Reality is approached from an Interpretative paradigm, with a Qualitative approach using the phenomenological method, to reflexively recover the bases that, in a deep sense, demonstrate the pedagogical concerns linked to students. The information collection technique is the in-depth interview with three teachers specializing in History using Coding and Categorization as an information processing technique through the Grounded Theory of Corbin and Strauss (2002).
