El patrimonio como catalizador del pensamiento crítico en la formación del futuro profesorado de Educación Primaria e Infantil: Un análisis desde la comunidad andaluza

This article analyses the role of heritage as a tool for fostering critical thinking in the training of future teachers of pre-school and primary education in Andalusia. Based on a didactic experience developed at the Universidad de Córdoba and the Universidad de Granada, it promotes a critical understanding of heritage, its identity value and its social dimension. The methodology used was based on the analysis of local heritage issues and the development of educational proposals, seeking to activate the civic awareness of students. The study highlights the need for more solid and contextualised teacher training in heritage education, capable of integrating heritage into teaching as a resource for building critical, inclusive citizenship that is committed to its social and cultural environment.
