Instructors' Views on Distance Education during the Pandemic Period
Online Submission, TOJET: The Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology spec iss p58-69 Sep 2021
In this study, it is aimed to determine the views of instructors on distance education and the reflection of the COVID 19 epidemic on their views. For this purpose, the opinions of the instructors who had not taught with distance education before the pandemic were examined both before the experience and after teaching during the pandemic process. Case study, one of the qualitative research methods, was used. Data were collected with the 20 instructors who participated in the study, with an interview form containing semi-structured questions before and after the experience. At the end of the study, it was seen that positive expressions were expressed more in general thoughts and evaluations made in terms of students and instructors before the experience, but there were more teachers who thought their success would be negatively affected. It is considered that distance education is not suitable for practical courses. After the experience, most of the instructors had change of thought. It is seen that this change is both positive and negative. It is possible to say that there are nearly half of the positive changes in the changing thoughts of the instructor and student. More than half of the instructors felt themselves productive in this environment. It is seen that interaction problems before and after experience cause concern. For this reason, it is recommended to apply methods that will increase interaction in the trainings provided.
