Özet:

This study, which is aimed at analysing the living universal l values transfer in secondary school Turkish textbooks, was formed by qualitative research methodology and designed by document review. A purposeful sampling method was used to determine the study group of the research. With this method, reading texts and poems in the 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th grade Turkish textbooks published in the academic year of 2017-2018 were analyzed. For determining the values in the texts, Value Review Form prepared by Cengiz and Duran (2017) using UNESCO Value List, Living Values List and Rokeach's Value Classification was used. The data was analyzed through descriptive analysis. As a result of the research, the most used values in secondary school Turkish textbooks were determined as; aesthetics, love, kindness and diligence; and the least used values were determined as; peace, simplicity, modesty and tolerance. Additionally, it has been found that the value transfer was carried out quantitatively and intensively in the analyzed Turkish textbooks, but that the themes and values in the textbooks were not completely consistent with the grade levels of the textbooks, that some values were not addressed at all and there was no systematic structure in the distribution of values across the grades or the themes.
