Comparison of the 2018 Social Studies Course Curriculum and the 2024 Draft Social Studies Course Curriculum
Samet Karakus; Yavuz Akbas
Online Submission, Paper presented at the International Eurasian Educational Research Congress (11th, Türkiye, May 21-24, 2024)
This study aims to make a comparative analysis of the 2018 social studies curriculum and the social studies curriculum published as a draft in 2024 by the Turkish Ministry of National Education. While there have been studies conducted to evaluate the curricula that have been in force since 2018 in Turkey and to compare the changes that have occurred between the years, there is currently no study that compares the 2018 social studies curriculum with the 2024 draft social studies curriculum. The study employed the "Programme Review Form" as the primary data collection instrument. The data analyzed by content analysis indicated that the 2024 draft curriculum is more specific in its aims, values and skills than the 2018 social studies curriculum. In the 2024 draft social studies curriculum, a greater emphasis is placed on skills, which are classified into three categories: literacy, domain, and conceptual. It was observed that the distribution of values across grade levels was not consistent in both curriculum types. With regard to measurement and assessment, both programmes adopt a process-based approach. While the 2018 social studies curriculum did not include the names of process-based assessment and evaluation methods, the names of such methods were mentioned in the 2024 draft curriculum.
