While some changes have occurred worldwide, the qualifications required for students to become productive citizens have also changed. In addition to the basic knowledge, skills, and values ​​needed to be productive individuals, the process of acquiring them is also a significant factor. As a result, the revision of the curriculum was deemed appropriate to make future generations better equipped and for the needs of the age, individual, and society.

While previous education programs focus on skills acquisition, the main emphasis of current curricula is on values ​​and value education. National, spiritual and universal values ​​related to educational goals have been divided into items thanks to a wide screening. Thus, values ​​education, which was also included in 2005 in order to assimilate social values ​​and transfer them to future generations, became more prominent in new education programs.

With the increase in the importance of knowing a foreign language, MoNE started foreign language-based programs in the 5th grade. Up to 18 hours of foreign language education was provided upon request. Besides, the course program consisting of 40 units was reduced to 36, and pronunciation lessons were added with daily words. In the link below, an article about policy changes and their implementations in Turkey are mentioned:

a) What have I learned?

I have learned that with the revision, MoNE has focused on acquiring the root values instead of abilities, and the new educational programs depend on the ten root values and related attitudes and behaviors.

I would like learn why all of these educational programs have never worked.
c) What have I not truly understood?
I did not understand why we are constantly trying to renew the curriculum and copy the curriculum of foreign countries.

To teach the values ​​completely, it is important to address the values in each lesson under the titles of the upper values ​​and the values ​​specific to each course. Also, because the interpretations of some attitudes and behaviors are vague, it may cause teachers not to understand and students not to learn. Therefore, more specific explanations are needed.

Since it is not clearly stated how to measure these qualifications, an indicator that can indicate whether the qualifications have been achieved adequately may not be obtained. The relationship between the skills and the courses is not included in the curriculum, and this may indicate that the qualifications do not match the achievements of all courses.
