La correspondencia personal. Una fuente documental para la enseñanza de la historia y la formación del profesorado de Primaria y Secundaria

Abstract

The teaching of history is carried out from categories, because it is constituted in departments that do not benefit its complex understanding. For thisreason, it is necessary to place people at the heart of the didactic process, acting as what they were, protagonists of the events of the past. To this end, it is proposed that future teachers work with personal documents, especially with personal correspondence. Among other issues, the use of this documentation is essential for the development of historical thinking, the encouragement of critical values, the construction of knowledge and autonomous learning.
