Intangible cultural heritage in the initial training of Primary Education teachers

This research is based on an educational experience developed within the framework of initial teacher training and its main objectives are to find out the notions of future teachers concerning intangible heritage and the integration of its different manifestations in classroom teaching programs. In this sense, a semi-experimental methodology was used with a pretest and posttest design based on an educational action that allowed us to reflect on the potential of this type of heritage and its application in the Primary Education stage through educational technologies. The training program was carried out in the Degree in Primary Education Teaching at the University of Alicante with 52 participants. The results show the importance given to this type of heritage and the need to implement specific educational programs for the training of future teachers.
