Abstract

This article describes the activity promoted between 2019 and 2021 by the research units related to the research project “School Memories between Social Perception and Collective Representation (Italy, 1861-2001)”, which proposes to study school memory as an individual, collective and public practice of re-evoking a common school past through the creation of the www.memoriscolastica.it portal and eight databases relating to the various forms of this memory. The project focused on disseminating the results of scientific research to a general public and experimenting with new forms of scientific communication, free online accessible, in order to complying with the open science policy of  the Horizon Europe Framework Programme for Research and Innovation 2021-2027.
