Analyzing the School Visuals in the Sultan Abdulhamid II Digital Collection of the U.S. Library of Congress and Evaluating Potential for Use in Teaching History Subjects

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the school visuals in the Sultan Abdulhamid II Digital Collection at the US Library of Congress and to evaluate the potential of these visuals in teaching history subjects. The research was designed according to the case study, one of the qualitative research methods, as it is based on an introductory, exploratory, cross-sectional and historical literature review involving a specific date. The data of the study consisted of school (middle school, high school, private school) images taken between 1880-1893 in the Sultan Abdulhamid II Digital Collection at the US Library of Congress. The images in the collection contain unique resources that can contribute to history teaching. The research aims to provide information on how these images can be used effectively in teaching history subjects by analyzing their content, school levels and possibilities of use as teaching materials in a descriptive way. In this context, by focusing on the potential of the digital collection in the US Library of Congress to bring new perspectives to history teaching, it offers an important resource to experts and teachers in the field of education. According to the results of the study, it is predicted that the school visuals in the Abdulhamid II Digital Collection can be a supportive tool for teaching history subjects to students. It is thought that they can be used especially in the subjects of national cultural elements and historical cultural remains in the field of culture and heritage learning in the social studies course. In addition, it can be said that it is appropriate to use the subjects related to the education system and schools during the reign of Abdulhamid II in the 11th grade history course in secondary education. In this context, the use of digital resources in the teaching process is recommended.
