24794

For the history of Turkish education, a very important the question is where we should begin an innovation in education. Moreover, it is distinctly important in debates between Emrullah Efendi and Sati Bey on the subject. According to Emrullah Efendi s Theory of the Tûbâ Tree, innovation in education needs to be initiated from higher education. Sati Bey stood against this theory, and he expressed that it would be better to start innovation in education from the primary school level. In fact, thess debates still remain valid up to date. In the 21st century, considering the conditions of Turkey, a comprehensive innovation in education is considered to be useful for the future of the country.

The research method is a literature review. The domestic and foreign publications on the subject were reviewed. At the end of the research, conclusions and suggestions were made in accordance with available data.
