Ellas sí tienen historia. Las representaciones del profesorado chileno de secundaria sobre la enseñanza de la historia de las mujeres

Abstract

This communication is about the analysis and interpretation of social representations of Chilean teachers on the teaching of the history of women today.The work consists of the analysis of written speeches of teachers on the Chilean curric-ulum, vision, goals and objectives that are positioned at the time of teaching the history of women. Three types that characterize the writings and speeches of teachers that reflect the vision, methodology and purpose they choose to teach from, or about, the history of women are established.While research is under development, the results of the social representations of teachers clearly show that, despite the efforts that have been made since the historiography or other sectors of society to highlight and give prominence to the woman, she continues with wide margins of freedom in teaching.
