Promoting historical memory recovery through the feedback given by educational museums and laboratories

In the current educational context, everybody is paying greater attention to cultural heritage. Scholars are committed to continuously preserving this cultural heritage by raising awareness across students and citizens through a pedagogy of heritage oriented towards the recovery of historical memory. This article is a review over the utility of the functions of museums – considered as organizations aimed at the conservation and protection of cultural goods as well as the enhancement and conservation of educational heritage – in order to provide a feedback that can be useful across past and present times. To this end, this research recommends the implementation of educational Museums of School History as an innovative methodological model that can be useful to create knowledge, and therefore to narrate the origins of learning places: namely schools. Understandably, the final aim is the common good deployed to achieve a conscious use.
