Eksi Sozluk, one of the most popular social media platforms in Turkey, has been an important agent in interpreting and reproducing information as a new public sphere. This study aims to explore the topics presented within the discourses in Eksi Sozluk regarding FATIH project. A total of 307 entries posted between 2010 and 2017 were analyzed using the method of discourse analysis. The results showed that FATIH project has been discussed in public sphere in terms of technological, political-ideological and project design dimensions rather than the educational dimension .
