We gain the values that guide human being’s lifelong behaviors
during our social life from our family, peer groups, educational
institutions, media, and so on. Those values also form our evaluation
criteria. Considering that skills learned during childhood become
permanent, values that are taught to students must be in integrity,
consistency and be in a form that does not make any conflict for
student. Handling the issue in this context, the values included in Life
Science Course Curriculum (LSCC) have to be examined in terms of
consistency. This study aims to find out consistency in values
included in LSCC distributed according to the classes and themes,
whether there are conflicting values, and also comparing values
according to the individuality and sociality. In this study, document
analyses method has been used. Primarily, the values included in
LSCC have been determined. Distributions of values according to the
classes and themes, presence of attribute of individuality or sociality,
and consistency of values have been examined. Based on analyzing
the collected data, the researcher has come to the conclusion that
“patriotism” is the most emphasized value and it is available in each
class and theme. Additionally, love, tolerance, respect and justice are
the most repeated values. Truthfulness, honesty and peace are the least
repeated values in all classes.
