This research article reports a qualitative study that used the analysis of narratives to learn how school texts reconstruct Colombia's independence, and how this reconstruction is related to student's independent narratives in diverse socio-cultural contexts. There were 21 interviews with eighth-grade students in two urban and two rural schools. A convenience sampling and the saturation criterion of the analysis categories was used. The textbooks that students use in their social science classes were analyzed. The narratives were segmented and analyzed from three historiographical categories: historical sources, historical explanation and engine of history. It was found that the historiographic template reproduced in the textbooks to organize the information and grant it historical significance was used by the students to construct their own historical narratives; and that the same independence narratives coexist in rural and urban contexts. It was concluded that the texts reproduced a national historical narrative that structurally does not favor students in the construction of sophisticated disciplinary knowledge.
