LO-1 1. Historical and Methodological Competence\nAnalyze sports history not merely as a record of \"scores and competitions,\" but as a cultural, political, and social discipline.\n\nIdentify and differentiate various historical sources—ranging from Ottoman court records (Sharia Sicils) to periodicals—and evaluate their evidentiary value in sports historiography.\n\n2. Traditional Sports Culture and Institutionalization\nExplain the institutional role of the Lodge (Tekke) System in traditional Turkish sports (Archery and Wrestling) by comparing it with modern-day sports clubs.\n\nComprehend that concepts such as Kemankeşlik (Archery) and Pehlivanlık (Wrestling) represent a system of \"ethics and morality\" rather than just physical activity.\n\nInterpret the transition of games like Cirit (Javelin), Çevgan (Polo), and Matrak from military drills to public entertainment.\n\n3. Modernization and Identity Construction\nEvaluate the rivalry between the Cabbages (Lahanacılar) and the Okras (Bamyacılar) as the first example of organized competition in Turkish sports history and its impact on social belonging.\n\nAnalyze how the Westernization movements of the late Ottoman period (e.g., the introduction of gymnastics in military schools) radically transformed the perception of physical education.\n\n4. Institutionalization and Sports Clubs\nExplain the founding motivations (national identity, educational vision, social solidarity) of long-established clubs such as Beşiktaş, Galatasaray, and Fenerbahçe within their historical context.\n\nDiscuss how football was utilized as a tool for resistance and national consciousness in occupied Istanbul, using examples such as the General Harington Cup.\n\n5. The Republican Project and Sports Policies\nGrasp the biopolitical significance of the \"Sturdy and Bold Children\" (Gürbüz ve Yavuz Evlatlar) ideal in the construction of the nation-state during the early Republican era.\n\nEvaluate the roles of structures like the Alliance of Turkish Training Societies (TİCİ) and the Turkish Sports Body in disciplining and popularizing sports through state channels.\n\n6. Analytical Evaluation\nCritically examine the cultural conflict and continuity between the liquidation of traditional sporting structures and the adoption of modern sports.\n\nContribute to academic debates on whether sport in Turkey serves as a \"tool for modernization\" or a \"populist cultural element.\" - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
