Clío en las aulas. La historia que tenemos y la que queremos enseñar
Abstract
Thisarticle contains diverse reflections on the didactics of history. It presentssome of the most serious problems of the social reality of Mexico and Latin America that should be urgently attended by this discipline. It relies on a critical and communicative model, that incorporates practices that provides tools for students to transform theirreality. It points out the need to conceive the didactic transposition in history as an epistemological leap, as it applies asubjective attribution. The teaching of history,rather than to provide data or explanations of social processes, must allow to the student be recognized himself as a subject in its history. Also it warns of the risks of depositing the educational practice in the teaching resources, even when these are very attractive, if this resources displace the responsibility of the teacher.
