SAIZ SERRANO, Jorge  e  LOPEZ-FACAL, Ramón. Historical Competencies and Narratives: The Historical Thinking of Students and Pre-Service Teachers. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2015, n.52, pp.87-101. ISSN 0123-885X.  https://doi.org/10.7440/res52.2015.06.

This paper examines the competencies in historical thinking of high school students and pre-service teachers in Spain, as well as their narratives about Spanish History. Qualitative methods are used in order to identify: a) their historical thinking, including substantive knowledge and use of meta-concepts; b) the narratives, the cognitive gradation (SOLO taxonomy), and the narrative subject employed. The findings show that a majority of secondary school students do not use meta-concepts. The degree of complexity of historical thinking among pre-service teachers is related to their use of substantive content. The results point to the need to improve history education, including substantive knowledge and the development of specific historical competencies.
