Summary: The study proposed to the Professional Postgraduate Program in Education at the Federal University of Espírito Santo aimed to demonstrate the contribution of local history, based on New History (Burke, 1992), in the formation of Anchieta identities, using thematic oral history (Meihy, 1996, 2005), with the intention of exchanging experiences (Benjamin, 1985). Therefore, it sought to understand how the uses of local history are valuable for the dynamism of History classes, based on the environment in which the students are inserted, and how teachers perceive the students' feelings of identity when working with local history. During the research, we sought, based on the state of knowledge, to analyze what has been investigated and the questions used for each pre-established theme, choosing to dialogue with those themes that meet this proposal, providing a basis. In this conception, approaches were made on the teaching of History and local history (Bittencourt, 2018a, 2018b; Fonseca, 2009; Schmidt; Cainelli, 2010), demonstrating how the construction of varied discourses on the human experience of a given place, mediated by historical consciousness (Rüsen, 1997, 2001, 2006, 2011), enables the formation of identities. The selected partners are History teachers who work in different municipal schools, providing substantial samples (Alberti, 2005). The narratives were collected in semi-structured interviews, recorded and later transcribed, reporting their teaching practices, with an emphasis on local history, as well as difficulties, challenges and possibilities. Based on attentive listening to the narratives, we developed the Educational Product entitled “Pombos- Correio”, with the objective of working on identities, with an emphasis on local history. The paths taken brought the potential of local history to the formation of identities, as well as historical awareness, but the lack of adequate teaching materials and resources for field classes made the process difficult.
