This article seeks to illustrate the importance of teaching the history of ancient Greece in the Primary Education Degree in Spain. The objective is to observe, from the analysis of a case study carried out at the University of Seville, how students pursuing the Degree in Primary Education acquire knowledge and how they then transfer and adapt this knowledge to a classroom of primary school students. This study highlights several methodologies and facts. It focuses on the necessity that future teachers know the history of ancient Greece in order to understand the legacy of this civilisation in today's world. In addition, it demonstrates the positive impact of integrating methodologies and techniques, such as Cooperative Learning (CL), Project Based Learning (PBL) and Gamification, both on a teacher's own learning and in their future role. This article is part of the activities of the Innovations and Didactic Group Gender and History Cliogen (GINDO-UB/187).
