Abstract

Results of a qualitative research of phenomenological type on historical education in the classrooms of the 2nd cycle of elementary education of the district of Porto, in the north of Portugal, are offered. The aim is to check whether the history of Portugal being taught contributes to reinforce a traditional and exclusive national identity or to educate active, participatory and critical citizens. The data was collected using an interview to 6 history teachers and a questionnaire to 91 students from public and private schools. As the Grounded Theory recommends and using the Atlas.ti tool, analysis categories have been constructed to characterize three epistemological and didactic approaches (traditional, innovative and critical) that guide the practices of history teachers, and the structure and content of students' narratives about the history of Portugal is analyzed using the narrative typologies from Jörn Rüsen. The results indicate that teachers share innovative teaching approaches with a heavy burden of traditional and few critical traits. The students' narratives show the predominance of traditional and exemplary typologies with few examples of critical and genealogical.
