Muallim School and Education Institute Restitution Period Analysis

Abstract

In the first years of the Republic, innovative solutions were tried to be brought to the problems of education in the education programs and in the efforts to adapt education to the national culture and contemporary civilization at the same time. The fact that "National Education" and "National Culture" issues were addressed in the studies in the field of education and that education was the complementary and most important element in the activities aimed at nation building showed that education was the complementary and most important element. The Inspection Board of the Ministry of National Education, which convened in Konya in 1925, stated that there was a need to open a boarding "Middle Teacher (Muallim) School". Gazi Middle School of Education was one of the schools established for this purpose. The importance of the First National Architecture period and the last building designed by Architect Kemaleddin Bey in the history of Turkish education is indisputable. In the times when the Republic of Turkey was struggling with poverty, the repairs, renovations and restorations that the building, which is the symbol of modern education built using the latest technology of the period, has undergone from yesterday to today, presented chronologically within the scope of this paper. The aim of this study is to contribute to the preservation of the Architect Kemaleddin Bey building, which is one of the monumental buildings and continues to be used as Gazi University Rectorate Building, and to transfer it to future generations correctly.
