SATISFACTION OF OPEN EDUCATION STUDENTS ABOUT THE LEARNING MATERIALS OF MATHEMATICS
Abstract
Changes and developments that take place in technology also cause changes in education and learning. In defining
the sufficiency, appropriacy and sustainability of new student services, knowing about the student satisfaction levels
carry an imporant role. For this purpose, this study aimed to find about the student satisfaction level regarding
the education services provided for Mathematics I class in the Open Education system at Anadolu University,
Turkiye. In this study, student satisfaction levels regarding the learning materials such as printed Mathematics
I course book, e-book, e-seminars, e-exam, e-learning, face-to-face learning, all of which are presented to the
students for Mathematics I class are examined. In order to determine the student satisfaction level regarding the
education services provided for Mathematics I class in the Open Education system; a questionnaire was given to
the Mathematics class students who take the class in six different cities. Based on the data gathered, the highest
satisfaction level of the students is face-to-face learning whereas the lowest one is the television programmes.
