Secondary Education, heritage, conceptions, teaching of historyAbstract
International organizations have pointed out the importance of including heritage in education for decades. Its inclusion in the teaching-learning process finds relationships with the social sphere (the construction of identities) and with the cognitive sphere (the writing of narratives). In this paper we proposed as an objective to compare the heritage conceptions between 92 Spanish and Portuguese students. With this purpose, we developed a research with a phenomenological design, using an only instrument applied in three different stages. The information has been categorized in two dimensions: heritage perspective and heritage typology. The analysis shows common trends to both countries, around traditional conceptions of heritage in terms of typology and perspective. The fixed image of the past, which can be inferred from the results, contrasts with the needs of this 21st century, where methodological changes are essential.
