Curriculum studies in Turkey a historical perspective conclusion

Abstract

One can truly appreciate the lived experiences only by situating them in their historical contexts and interpreting them through a historical lens. History does not only help us by depicting events and phenomena of the past, but also by allowing us to reach deductions and make sense of them. In writing this book, I have applied the historical perspective as the primary method of analyzing the curriculum theory and curriculum studies in Turkey. I strongly believe that past events can only be interpreted by considering their historical and philosophical contexts, which has led me to write this text from a holistically historical standpoint.
