Abstract

The paper describes the experience of building an institutional Repository of Educational Materials, with
the aims of creating support for teachers and pre-service teachers, strengthening links with schools and achieving bidirectional engagement with the local school system. The Repository was prepared on the technical basis of Content Management System (CMS Joomla), which integrates a wide range of documents, classified in the following categories: teaching strategies, evaluation strategies, articles, books, presentations, planning models, learning guides, projects, testing databases.
Performance and feedback are the main results achieved. The website generates synergy between the school
system and the University through the creation of teachers networks and communities, which allows, among
other, research, validation of instruments, and piloting of experiences. Hence, the University manages to connect, collaborate, receive and send contributions to the school system, thereby improving its engagement with the community with social commitment and responsibility.
