Özet:

The aim of this study is to evaluate the education of citizenship in Turkey according to the views of teachers who play an important role in citizenship education. The research was carried out according to the phenomoniology pattern of the research methods. In the study, participants were determined by measurement sampling in terms of maximum diversity of sample methods for the purpose of taking into account different branches, especially in terms of the preference of branch teachers in social areas. The research work group consists of 10 teachers in different branches from a private school in Sakarya province. The semi-configured conversation form developed by researchers has been used as a data collection tool. In January 2017 a 250-minute conversation was held with teachers who entered classes in high school and high school.  The discussions were recorded and transmitted. The data is subject to content analysis. According to this, the study found that teachers found their current citizenship education and their own citizenship education in terms of content and application. Teachers have defined their tasks in citizenship education as a role model in a cultural and moral perspective. They said that family, environment and public institutions contribute to citizenship education outside the school. They emphasized that lack of application is one of the most important problems of citizenship education.
