In the light of the findings obtained in the study, it was found that the participants, who had changed their fields of profession from classroom teaching to social studies teaching, assumed that they had qualifications in terms of their field-specific self-competencies; however, they lacked the field-specific competencies identified by the Ministry of National Education and they were not aware of these deficiencies. It was concluded that the participants did not have enough knowledge and skills as to the mission and aims of the Curriculum for Social Studies Lesson and basic approaches and premises of social studies instruction. It was also found that teacher-centered behaviorist instruction was adopted in which learners are passive and abstract and purely theoretical knowledge is presented to be learned through rote-learning instead of learner-centered and activity-centered instruction in which learners are active in line with the constructivist approach |
