Abstract

This paper describes the creation process of an open repository of educational resources linked to the teaching of recent history, and its assessment using an intervention with 86 fourth-year secondary education students in two different cities. The integration of the resources is described, examining their utility by using a qualitative analysis. Results show that students' direct work with these historical sources eases history comprehension, resulting especially motivational those audiovisual resources that are least frequently used (songs, contests and cartoons). The necessity of potentiating the diffusion and educational collaboration by an adequate use of repositories is discussed.
