Social studies teacher candidates' perceptions of cultural heritage

Abstract

The social studies course is a multifaceted, interdisciplinary subject that encompasses the cultural wealth of societies and acts as a bridge between the past and the present. The concept of cultural heritage is crucial in the context of this course's rich material. Cultural heritage is described as all of the values that societies have passed down from generation to generation. Metaphors will be used to examine the perceptions of prospective social studies teachers regarding the concept of cultural heritage. In terms of structure and scope, the study, which examines teacher candidates' metaphors related to cultural heritage, is a descriptive study that employs qualitative research processes. In the data collection process of the research, the metaphor technique was used to determine the perceptions of social studies teacher candidates regarding the concept of cultural heritage. In the process of assessing the study's data, content analysis was used. The researcher generated particular topics for all of the metaphors developed by social studies teacher candidates connected to the concept of cultural heritage. Metaphors of treasure, precious stone, heritage, and entrusted stand out in the context of the concepts produced for cultural heritage through content analysis. The idea of 'cultural transmission' appears in the main categories developed.
