Abstract

An oral history research on Spanish Franquism education, based on students and the elderly, which have given their experiences and life history. The methodology employed was fundamentally qualitative in nature, based on semi-structured interviews and subsequent content analysis. The results from the interviews gave us hints and knowledge of our immediate past and its educational protocols and circumstances. We have also get know the disgraceful educative materials and the distressing pedagogie methods used at that time, mainly caused because of Civil War and its consequences. Participation of the voluntaries in the research increased motivation for learning on the part of the students in question and the opportunity for a fruitful encounter between older people and young people.
