Turkey Dropping Evolution From Curriculum
土耳其將進化論從課程表中移除
A new school curriculum is going into effect in Turkey for 2017-18, and it will no longer include the subject of evolution in grade nine. The curriculum for state-run schools in Turkey is set by the government. Government representatives say that Charles Darwin’s theory is above the students’ level of understanding and should not be taught until university level. Critics fear this is part of President Erdogan’s attempt to raise a “pious generation.” Other curriculum changes include spending less time on Mustafa Kemal Ataturk (the founder of modern Turkey) and more time on traditional Turkish culture and religious studies. All new schools will be required to have a gender-separated prayer room. Religious schools will also begin teaching the word “jihad” as a positive term related to patriotism and spirituality.
土耳其2017-18年的學校新課程表已經(jīng)生效，該課表將進化論從九年級的課程中移除。土耳其國立學校的這份課程表由政府制定。政府代表人員說查爾斯·達爾文的理論超出了學生的理解范圍，應(yīng)該在大學階段再教授。批判家擔心這是埃爾多安總統(tǒng)試圖培養(yǎng)“虔誠的一代”的一部分。課表變化還包括在穆斯塔法·基馬爾（現(xiàn)代土耳其創(chuàng)始人）的學習上縮減時間，在傳統(tǒng)的土耳其文化及宗教信仰方面增加時間。所有新學校都必須有男女分開的禱告室。宗教學教也將從積極面去教授“jihad（圣戰(zhàn)）”這個詞，將其與愛國主義和精神性聯(lián)系起來。
