WOS: 000461078400001 ; Citizenship education was influenced by fundamental changes that happened following the end of the Cold War in 1989. Traditional citizenship education aiming to build a monolithic national identity, disseminate an image of homogeneous society and transmit the knowledge of political system has evolved towards modern citizenship education characterised by an emphasis on human rights, democracy, the rule of law, respect for diversity and a concern to develop students' political participation skills. The transition to modern citizenship education in Turkey started with the pushing of international educational projects and is still underway. Drawing on critical discourse analysis, this study explores what kind of citizenship education the 2018 Social Studies Courses Programme of Study envisages. The study found that the new programme intensely reflects the characteristics of traditional citizenship education. Taking into account this study's findings might lead to more effective implementation of the programme and increase the success of future curriculum reforms.

Many studies on Mehmet Akif Ersoy, who is also known as "Homeland Poet" and "National Poet" in Turkish literature, show that he is in a structure suitable for realism and idealism, and that he frequently deals with subjects in which social concepts are at the forefront. Mehmet Akif collected all his poems in his work called Safahat, which consists of seven books. Family, which constitutes the core of the society and is the most basic building block that keeps it alive, comes first among the social concepts that he values. In his works, where he analyzes the various situations of the members of the family institution in depth, Akif focuses on the "child" and "young" individuals in this institution and the "education" needs of the new generation created by them. Akif has an intense interest in children and young people, because the way to know and serve a society is to know and understand the child well. The periods in which the individual evolves from childhood to youth and from there to adulthood; It has a critical meaning for the child, family and society. Being aware of this, Akif has been in an effort to create the ideal youth and thus to create the ideal society by emphasizing the family institution, which he almost sanctified and defined as the "heavenly palace" in his works. In this compilation type study, which is based on literature review and literature analysis as a method, based on Mehmet Akif Ersoy's work named Safahat, the concepts of "child", "young", "family" and "education", which are considered important in the progress of society, were evaluated from Akif's perspective and the importance of these concepts was tried to be revealed. When Mehmet Akif Ersoy's point of view on the aforementioned social concepts is examined both from his own works and from the works made about him, it seems possible to say that these views still maintain their validity today and that there are suggestions that can be a solution to many current social and educational problems.

Public debates tend to see social inequality as resulting from individual decisions people make, for instance with respect to their education or lifestyle. Solutions are often sought in supporting individuals to make better choices. This neglects the importance of social groups and communities in determining individual outcomes. A moral perspective on social inequality questions the fairness of insisting on individual responsibilities, when members of some groups systematically receive fewer opportunities than others. The essays in this book have been prepared by experts from different disciplines, ranging from philosophy to engineering, and from economics to epidemiology. On the basis of recent scientific insights, World of Difference examines how group memberships impact on individual outcomes in four key domains: health, education and work, migration, and the environment. This offers a new moral perspective on social inequality, which policy makers tend to neglect.

This research aims to evaluate the developments in the recent history of the social studies course in Turkey (1998-2022) through the curricula. Since 1998, 2005, and 2018 social studies curricula and literature studies were used as data sources, the research conducted with the document analysis method. The data were evaluated by the thematic analysis method. At the end of the research, it was determined that the 1998 curriculum, which was first prepared with a behavioral approach, did not fully reflect the understanding of contemporary social studies. Secondly, the 2005 curriculum, which was prepared with a constructivist approach, emphasized individual identity instead of social identity, unlike the curricula prepared until that time. Furthermore, the 2005 curriculum brought many innovations such as learning strands, sub-disciplines, skills, concepts, values, activity recommendations, and assessment and evaluation elements that did not exist in previous curricula. Moreover, while sub-disciplines, skills, concepts, and activity recommendations were not included in the 2018 curriculum, some values were removed and some new values were added instead. Finally, it has been seen that the 2018 curriculum includes various competencies and literacy, unlike the 2005 curriculum. Based on these results, it can be suggested that the 2018 curriculum be updated in more detail to guide teachers.

The aim of the research is to bibliometrically analyze 1419 publications published in the field of information literacy in the field of education between 1989 and 2022 and indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) database. The data of the research was reached on 01.02.2022 and 7,210 scientific publications were found as a result of the search. According to the scope of the research, a limitation was made in the category of "educational / educational research". As a result of these processes, bibliometric data of 1419 studies were accessed and the data were recorded. Percentage and frequency values of the obtained data were calculated and presented in tables and graphics. At the same time, the data of the studies were visualized by making bibliometric network maps using the VOSviewer package program. According to the results of the research, the highest number of publications in the education category related to information literacy in WoS were made in the articles, papers and book chapters, respectively, in 2018, the most common publication language was English, then Spanish, and the most academic publications were USA. It was later found that it was made in China. Purdue University and the Purdue University System are top-publishing authors affiliated. In Turkey, Hacettepe University is the institution where the authors who publish the most on information literacy work. After 2007, the citations increased every year compared to the previous year, and the most citations were made in 2021. In the educational research category, "information literacy, media literacy, teaching strategies, digital" are the most frequently used keywords in studies on information literacy. The study was conducted in the WoS database, and it can be recommended to compare the bibliometric analyzes in the Scopus, EBSCO and PROQUEST databases to researchers who can work on information literacy. stract:
