Özet

21. yüzyıldaki hızlı değişimler, eğitim sistemlerinin yalnızca bilgi aktarımına odaklanmakla kalmayıp bireyleri eleştirel düşünme, problem çözme ve toplumsal sorumluluk gibi becerilerle donatmasını zorunlu kılmaktadır. Eğitim, küresel rekabet edebilirliği artırırken etik değerler ve kültürel kimliği korumayı hedefleyen stratejik bir alan olarak önem kazanmış, bu nedenle eğitim politikalarının ve öğretim programlarının yeniden yapılandırılması kritik hale gelmiştir. Bu bağlamda, Türkiye’de Sosyal Bilgiler Dersi Öğretim Programı, 2024 yılında Türkiye Yüzyılı Maarif Modeli (TYMM) çerçevesinde yeniden düzenlenmiştir. Bu araştırma, sosyal bilgiler öğretmenlerinin 2024 Sosyal Bilgiler Öğretim Programı hakkındaki görüşlerini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Araştırma, 2024–2025 eğitim-öğretim yılında Türkiye’nin çeşitli illerinde görev yapan 12 sosyal bilgiler öğretmeni ile olgubilim deseni kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veri toplama sürecinde yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu aracılığıyla öğretmenlerin deneyimlerine dair ayrıntılı bilgiler elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre, TYMM kapsamında yenilenen Sosyal Bilgiler Öğretim Programı, öğrenci merkezli yaklaşımı, sadeleştirilmiş içeriği ve değerler eğitimine verdiği önemle öğretmenler tarafından genel olarak olumlu karşılanmıştır. Ancak programın uygulanması sırasında etkinliklerin yoğunluğu, ders sürelerinin yetersizliği, teknolojik altyapı eksiklikleri ve öğretmenlerin mesleki gelişim ihtiyaçları gibi pratik zorluklar, programın etkili bir şekilde uygulanmasını engellemektedir. Bu bulgular, programın teorik olarak sağlam bir temele sahip olmasına rağmen, uygulama aşamasında öğretmenlere daha fazla destek sağlanması ve okulların altyapılarının güçlendirilmesi gerektiğini ortaya koymaktadır.

Abstract

The rapid transformations of the 21st century require education systems to evolve beyond knowledge transmission, emphasizing critical thinking, problem-solving, and social responsibility. In Turkey, the Social Studies Curriculum was redesigned in 2024 under the Türkiye Yüzyılı Maarif Modeli (TYMM) to align with global competitiveness while safeguarding ethical values and cultural identity. This qualitative study examines teachers’ perceptions of the updated curriculum through a phenomenological approach, interviewing 12 Social Studies teachers across Turkey during the 2024–2025 academic year. Data collected via semi-structured interviews revealed that educators broadly approve of the curriculum’s student-centered methodology, condensed content, and strengthened values education. However, significant implementation challenges emerged, including overly dense activity schedules, inadequate class durations, technological infrastructure gaps, and insufficient teacher preparation for the new framework. The findings suggest that while the TYMM’s theoretical foundations are sound, its practical execution requires systemic improvements: enhanced logistical support for teachers, upgraded school resources (particularly digital tools), and ongoing professional development programs tailored to the curriculum’s demands. Addressing these issues is vital to ensure the program’s efficacy and sustainability. The study underscores that curriculum reform must be accompanied by tangible investments in teacher capacity and institutional infrastructure to achieve its intended outcomes.
