El objetivo principal de este trabajo es indagar en las narrativas históricas y en lascompetencias desarrolladas en los libros de texto de Historia en Educación Secundaria, comparando los contenidos y el pensamiento histórico propuesto por los manuales escolares franceses y españoles sobre la Edad Moderna. Se ha realizado un estudio exploratorio con un tema transversal: las unidades didácticas de la Edad Moderna en 2º de ESO en España y 4º de Collège en Francia. Este estudio ha analizado de una forma comparativa tanto los contenidos sustantivos que presentan los manuales (qué conocimientos históricos se proponen en estos materiales educativos), como los contenidos estratégicos (cómo se presentan esos conocimientos y qué tipo de habilidades cognitivas se le exige al alumnado). Los datos muestran resultados dispares. Por un lado la nación (su origen y consolidación) sigue siendo el principal sujeto histórico en los manuales. Pero existe una gran diferencia en las competencias históricas propuestas al alumnado en España (con un aprendizaje más memorístico) y en Francia (con un análisis más profundo de las fuentes históricas).PALABRAS CLAVE: enseñanza de la historia, narrativa nacional, libros de texto,pensamiento histórico, competencias educativas.ABSTRACTThe main objective of this paper is to look into the historical narratives and the competencies developed in secondary education history textbooks by comparing thecontents and historical thinking on the Early Modern period proposed by French and Spanish textbooks. We carried out an exploratory study with a cross-cutting topic: the teaching units on the Early Modern period in the 2nd year of ESO in Spain and 4th year of Collège in France. This study comparatively analyzed both the substantive contents presented in textbooks (the historical knowledge presented in these educational materials), and the strategic contents (the way this knowledge is presented, and the kind of cognitive skills required by students). The data shows mixed results. On the one hand the concept of nation (its origin and consolidation) remains the main historical subject in textbooks. But there is a major difference in terms of the historical skills proposed for students in Spain (rote learning) and France (a deeper analysis of historical sources).KEY WORDS: history education, national narrative, textbooks, historical thinking,educational skills.

The methodological resource aimed at aesthetisation of the educational environment of a higher pedagogical education institution under conditions of reforming the Ukraine’s education system is highlighted in the study. The purpose of the study is to present the content of special methodological work on the development of the aesthetic competence of the future teachers specialised in the Humanities. The research methods are as follows: theoretical – analysis of scientific sources on the problem related to the development of the aesthetic competence of the future specialists in the field of education – in order to specify the phenomenon “aesthetic competence of the teacher specialised in the Humanities” and to determine the characteristics of its development; practical – analysis of pedagogical experience – in order to highlight the effective forms of work with students within the educational environment of higher education institutions which contribute to the development of the aesthetic competence on certain grounds. The aesthetic competence of the teacher specialised in the Humanities is interpreted as an integrative personal and professional characteristic of a teacher specialised in the Humanities based on his / her abilities to build professional pedagogical activities according to the laws of aesthetics (to understand markers of the tragic and comic, beautiful and ugly, lofted and low); it consists of a dynamic complex of specialized knowledge and skills (abilities to solve professional tasks based on aesthetic ideals, cultural and humanistic values); it is actualised through the identifiers of aesthetic and humanitarian training: aesthetic taste, aesthetic consciousness, aesthetic culture. The article describes the content of the experimental work with the students majoring in these specialties: 014 Secondary education (the Ukrainian language and literature) (10 bachelor students), 014 Secondary education (Language and literature (English)) (10 bachelor students), 014 Secondary education (History) (10 bachelor students) at the State institution “South Ukrainian National Pedagogical University named after K. D. Ushynsky”. The specificities of the work of the pedagogical circle within which the elective special course “Aesthetic competence of the future teachers specialised in the Humanities” (3 ECTS credits) was taught have been presented. Some ways enabling the modification of the content of the educational disciplines “Pedagogy”, “Psychology”, “Cultural Studies”, “The History of Ukrainian Culture” have been presented. Keywords: competence, aesthetisation, aesthetic competence, future teachers of the Humanities, institution of higher education, educational environment of a higher education institution, methodological work.

There have been serious efforts across countries to make history education more relevant. One such global effort is the integration of citizenship values into the history curriculum and syllabus of schools. Despite the successes of this initiative in some contexts, others have received it with mixed feelings thereby problematising its implementation and compromising the chances of a successful outcome. This article interrogates the relationship between school history and citizenship through an exploration of the perceptions of history teachers in Lesotho about the promotion of citizenship values through history education. The rationale for the investigation stems from the inclusion of citizenship values as part of the aims of the Lesotho General Certificate of Secondary Education (LGCSE) history syllabus. The study operated within the interpretive paradigm and a qualitative case study approach of four purposively selected high schools and eight teachers in Maseru, Lesotho. The data collected from semi-structured interviews revealed that the teachers possess very vague and varying understandings of citizenship. This vagueness ultimately translates into the classroom practice in the form of a lack of harmonious implementation of the LGSCE history syllabus’ prescriptions on citizenship values. The teachers however, have a mostly positive feeling about the importance of imparting citizenship values to learners, especially in the unique context of Lesotho through history education. This article recommends that the Ministry of Education and Training (MoET) initiates a robust curriculum reflection process, together with relevant stakeholders that will inform policy on the effective implementation of the citizenship clauses of the LGSCE history syllabus.

This paper presents the results of research on the initial teacher training in Spain. The aim is to verify whether the development of a training program for teachers based on methodological and epistemological aspects has a positive repercussion on the learning of secondary school pupils. We evaluated to what degree this training was reflected in secondary education pupils (n = 467, Mage = 14.74, SD = 1.97) taught by the participating trainee teachers during their period of teaching practice. A pretest and a postest were employed to obtain data on the methodology and the motivation and perceived learning on the part of the pupils. A confirmatory factor analysis was carried out to verify the validity and internal consistency of the tools and, later, the longitudinal invariance in each of the dimensions analyzed. The results confirm the internal consistency and validity of the tools employed and the improvement in the pupils' evaluation regarding methodology, motivation, and learning.
