Memória, património educativo e espaços virtuais de aprendizagem. Uma experiência na Universidade de Granada

Abstract

This paper presents a teaching experience undertaken in the context of a teaching innovation project, in which a website on heritage, society and education was prepared as a virtual learning environment, with a view to contributing towards the recovery of the historical educational heritage. In view of the work done by Martí Úbeda, C. (2009), UNESCO (2012), Viñao, A. (2010) and Moreno Martínez, P. L. (2009), and the support given by the historical education scientific societies, heritage is of considerable value in terms of conservation and dissemination, inasmuch as it shapes part of our memory and helps build identities within a community. At universities, heritage recovery is addressed from an educational and sociocultural approach, fostering learning environments and experiences that impact on the recovery of the heritage that makes up part of the collective memory.. We provide a set of activities developed by the students under the Project, which are of use when it comes to analysing, recovering and reconstructing the historical, sociocultural and educational heritage. This virtual environment makes it possible for collaborative knowledge to be generated, opening up new horizons to stimulate teaching and learning processes and further research in this field.
