Abstract
The subject of this study is to uncover the relations between terrorism, media, and education with examples. The purpose of this study is to reveal the effect of terrorist organizations, which try to recruit staff by using the media and educational environments, on education, and to discuss the effectiveness of education in preventing terrorism. Today, terrorist organizations, which use the internet actively, consider virtual media as a serious propaganda tool by taking advantage of the difficulties in the control of virtual environments. For this reason, in this study, which has a qualitative design, media analysis will also be included as well as document analysis. The PKK, which is defined as a leftist organization, and ISIS and similar religion-based terrorist groups that take Islam as their reference will be discussed in the scope of the study, and the way they use the media and the effects of their activities on education and the role of education and religious education in preventing or reducing the effects of terrorism will be discussed in the study.
