Patrimônio histórico no ensino de História

Abstract

This book is dedicated to teachers who are involved in teaching History. Here, we will recall the meanings of heritage and expand the parameters for its uses in this teaching. Our strategy is to open up the field of possibilities for working with the object as much as possible, while maintaining the usual requirements of considering learning ideas (the link with History Didactics) and purposes for the school subject (the links with identity values) when planning teaching activities. In the chapters that follow, we address (1) relationships between the concepts of heritage and identity, (2) methods of selecting and managing national heritage, (3) processes of symbolizing objects as heritage, (4) planning activities with heritage and some methods of using it (5) within schools, (6) within other institutions, such as museums, and (7) in open public spaces.
