Abstract :The aim of this study is to enable pre-service teachers studying in the undergraduate programme of social studies teaching to recognise memory places that can be accepted as out-of-school learning environments, to associate them with social studies education and to show them how to use memory places in their fields. Action research, one of the qualitative research models, was used in the study. \"Interview Form 1\" and \"Interview Form 2\" developed by the researcher were used as data collection tools. Before the implementation process started, the researcher applied Interview Form 1 to the final year pre-service social studies teachers. As a result of the examination of the applied form, 23 volunteer pre-service teachers who gave insufficient answers to the questions were determined as the study group. A total of 30 sessions and 57 hours of practice were conducted with the study group. At the end of each session, feedbacks about the application were received from the pre-service teachers. At the end of 30 sessions, \"Interview Form 2\" was applied to the study group and an evaluation was made about the whole process. The data obtained from the study group were analyzed using descriptive analysis and content analysis. When the results of the study are evaluated in general, it can be said that all of the pre-service social studies teachers in the study group were able to explain the memory places at the end of the applications. It is also possible to say that they were able to identify memory places in out-of-school learning environments, associate memory places with social studies course outcomes, and prepare lesson plans for out-of-school learning environments using memory places. In the light of the results of the research, memory places throughout Turkey can be identified and studies can be carried out on how they can be used in social studies. In addition, in-service training can be given regarding the implementation process of memory places.Keywords : Sosyal Bilgiler, hafıza mekânları, okul dışı öğrenme, okul dışı öğrenme ortamı, öğretmen adayı
