Abstract

For a long time, traditional methods have been used as a form of learning for history in the social sciences, with more tools such as oratory, for that reason, the objective of this research is to apply oral tradition as a tool to strengthen competences of historical thought in students of the José Rueda del Palmar Technical Institute. In addition, it starts from an analysis directed towards the students, who see the history area through traditional methods. Based on this, questionnaires were designed and applied that made it possible to highlight the ninth-grade students as the research sample, after recognizing their shortcomings. For this reason, this project is carried out, seeking in this way that students understand and interpret the knowledge they acquire about national history through oral tradition as a teaching tool. To meet the objectives, a descriptive qualitative method was used, consisting firstly of the application of a diagnostic questionnaire to identify shortcomings in historical thinking, and finally a questionnaire to demonstrate the strengthening of competences in history, after the application of the oral tradition as a learning tool. After the fieldwork, it was possible to conclude that the learning tool effectively strengthened the competences of historical thinking in the students
