Education is seen as the most important tool of social change and reform. It is known that education has economic, political, social and cultural reflections. In the increasingly globalized world with the developments in science and technology and social movements, the meaning attributed to education and the expectations of the individual and society from education also differ. This situation causes the existing educational practices and pedagogical understandings to be questioned and brings with it the fact that alternative solutions are produced. Critical pedagogy is one of the approaches that have been discussed in education in recent years and that offers an alternative understanding of education. Critical pedagogy is an approach that advocates the liberation of the individual by gaining critical awareness, the provision of equal opportunity in education, the development of the individual as a whole, contributing to the individual's self-realization, considering the education as the center of social change and the individual as a pioneer in social change. It offers various educational practices to democratize education and provide equal developmental opportunities. In this research, it is aimed to examine critical pedagogy, which is one of the alternative education approaches, and its reflections on learning environments. It is thought that this study will contribute to the related theoretical literature and be a source for the development of educational programs.
