Archives and Education, an Inseparable Binomy

Abstract

The author maintains that the information contained in the records of the archives, as a source for various investigations and argues that it is also very useful for students of educational institution who can be encouraged from an early age in research. Then it refers to the school curriculum as a record type, of the educational system that contains information whose consultation for the investigation of the development and evolution of the educational system is fundamental. Likewise, the author points out her firm conviction in the direct link between the archives and education, and therefore recommends the integration of the school archives into the National Archives Sistem because at the moment it is a sector not attended by it. It also indicates that the more students approach the archives, the greater the degree of their connection with the reliable history that the record register. Finally, the need to disseminate the archives is highlighted as a task that must be carried out frequently because the population must know the cultural and informative wealth that the archival records possess, starting with the students of the educational institution.
