TÜRK VE AMERİKAN SOSYAL BİLGİLER ÖĞRETMEN ADAYLARININ KÜLTÜREL MİRAS EĞİTİMİNE YÖNELİK TUTUMLARININ KARŞILAŞTIRILMASI

Kültürel miras kavramı son yıllarda önemi giderek artan bir kavramdır. Kültürel mirasın korunması için birçok uluslararası kurum çalışmaktadır. Aynı zamanda birçok ülke de kendi kültürel mirasını korumak için çeşitli tedbirler almaktadır. Bu tedbirler arasında son zamanlar da eğitimin rolü ön plana çıkmaktadır. Kültürel mirasın korunmasın en önemli faktörlerden birinin bu konuda bilinçli bireyler yetiştirmek olduğu çeşitli kurumlar ve otoriteler tarafından vurgulanmaktadır. Kültürel miras konuları bu bakımdan okul ders programlarına kadar girmiştir. Bu derslerden birisi de sosyal bilgiler dersidir. Sosyal bilgiler dersinin amaçlarından birisi de kültürel miras konusunda bilinçli vatandaşlar yetiştirmektir. Sahip oldukları fikirler ile gelecek nesilleri etkileyecek olan sosyal bilgiler öğretmen adaylarının kültürel miras eğitimine yönelik tutumları önemli görülmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı Türk ve Amerikan sosyal bilgiler öğretmen adaylarının karşılaştırmaktır. Çalışmanın verileri nicel ve nitel veri toplama araçları kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Nicel verileri toplamak için Kültürel Miras Eğitimi Tutum Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Nitel veriler dört açık uçlu soru vasıtasıyla toplanmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre hem Türk hem de Amerikan sosyal bilgiler öğretmen adaylarının kültürel miras eğitimine yönelik başlangıçta oldukça yüksek olumlu tutuma sahip oldukları görülmüştür. Nitel sonuçlar karşılaştırıldığında ise hem Türk hem de Amerikan sosyal bilgiler öğretmen adaylarının tarih yerleri değerli bir öğretim ve öğrenim aracı olarak gördükleri ortaya çıkmıştır. Hem Türk hem de Amerikan sosyal bilgiler öğretmen adaylarının tarihi yerleri korumanın önemli olduğunu düşündükleri görülmüştür
