Traces of Our Past Workshop

In this workshop, based on the MEB curriculum, we compare the educational practices of the past with today's educational practices, and we tell our students about the scientists of the Islamic scholars who lived in the past in Europe.

What Will We Process?

In this process from the past to the present, we will tell our students about Islamic Scholars and in which field they work and their works.
We will teach the ancient Islamic Scholars by making comparisons with the corresponding Scientists in Europe.
