Collection and interpretation of oral narratives as a history-learning process at different levels of education
The paper presents an “oral history” approach to history education that was used as the cord of the course “History education and Museums” at the University of Thessaly for six academic years, with basic aims to introduce students into the method of history and the nature of historical narratives, and to enhance students’ – future teachers’ – understanding of the terms in which oral history can be used as educational procedure at different levels of history education. The theoretical background, the educational method and results are discussed in relation to the analysis of students’ works and the type of their total responses.
