Investigation of Social Sciences and Geography Course Curriculum Updated in 2018 in Terms of Map Skills

Abstract

Map skills are included in the curriculum of different courses in basic education and secondary education, although they are more involved in the Social Sciences Course Curriculum Program (SSCCP) and Geography Course Curriculum Program(GCCP). Based on this situation, the research aimed at a comparative examination of the mapping skills included in the SSCCP and GCCP, which were updated in 2018. In the research, qualitative research model and document review method were preferred. The data source of the study was designated as 2018 SSCCP and GCCP. The analysis of the data was done with descriptive analysis technique. As a result of the research, it was observed that the map skills included in 2018 SSCCP continued in 2018 GCCP. However, different mapping skills were also included in the 2018 GCCP. In 2018 SSLCP ‘people, places and enviroments’ (PPE) learning area attainments in Grades 4, 5 and 6 are observed to include map skills. However, other areas of learning of these grades and 7. it was determined that none of the attainments in classroom learning areas included map skills. In the 2018 GCCP, mapping skills were included in the attainment of almost all grades and units. In the 2018 GCCP, it was reached that the numbers of atttainments involving mapping skill are similar in their distribution to grades, while there are differences in their distribution to units. However, the 2018 GCCP has been observed to include more extensive mapping skills than the 2018 SSCCP.
