Abstract:

The aim of this research is to examine and reveal the teaching materials of the lessons of History and Citizenship in the late Ottoman and early Republican periods. Qualitative research approach has been adopted in this research. When research period is examined, it seems that studies have been made to support education with oral, written and visual materials. Teaching materials are provided by the government but also some materials are ordered from abroad when needed. Alternative material proposals have been presented by field experts for costly materials. It can be said that the obstacles have been tried to be overcome in order to increase the quality of education. It is very important to take initiatives in order to overcome the deficiencies in the education system during these periods when many material and spiritual deficiencies are experienced. In the light of all this, it appears that the initiatives related to the use of teaching materials in research-related periods are not to be underestimated.
