Abstract

This study aims to examine the opinions and thoughts of students studying at Manisa Celal Bayar University Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences in the 2022-2023 academic year regarding distance and face-to-face education systems during and after the Covid-19 pandemic process, by factor analysis.The findings obtained as a result of the factor analysis were examined and interpretations were made. The data used in the study was collected by survey technique. Analyzes were carried out using the SPSS-22 statistical package program and results were obtained using explanatory factor analysis, one of the multivariate statistical techniques.The number of students who will participate in the survey was determined by taking into account their departments using the stratified sampling technique, provided that they took courses with the distance education model during the Covid-19 pandemic and continued their education with the face-to-face education model after the pandemic. In this way, 342 of the 4518 students studying at the faculty were determined as the sample and the study was conducted with 342 students who fully responded to the survey. The findings obtained as a result of the explanatory factor analysis applied Accordingly, it has been observed that the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic process and subsequent education systems on students are explained by two factors. The first of these two factors is named "Positive Effects of Face-to-Face Education" and the second is called "Negative Effects of Face-to-Face Education". These named factors explain 69% of the total variance.
