Uzaktan eğitimdedönüt, öğretmen-öğrenci etkileşimin epek çok fırsatlar sunması nedeniyle önemli bir rol oynamaktadır.Uzaktan eğitimin etkililiği, öğrencilerins onraki öğrenmelerine anlamlı bir şekilde etki eden dönütün kalitesinin arttırılmasıyla geliştirilebileceğinden,öğretmenlerin, öğrenci katılımını kabuletmesi ve dönütlerini oluştururken öğrencilerin gereksinimlerine ve beklentilerine yer vermeleri gerekir. Bu bağlamda çalışma, öğrencilerile öğretmenler arasında uzlaşmaya yer verme ve bunun sonucunda, kurumumuzda dönüt sürecini buna göre şekillendirme amacıyla öğrencilerin dönüt algılarını anlama konusunda ilk adımı oluşturmaya çalışmaktadır.Çalışmadaki veriler likert-tipi bir anket kullanılarak, üniversitenin uzaktaneğitim veren meslek yüksekokulundaki farklı bölümlerinde eğitim gören 304 gönüllü öğrenciden toplanmıştır. Çalışma sonuçları, uzaktan eğitimde uygulanan dönüt süreci hakkındaki öğrenci görüşlerini ortaya koyarak öğrenme sürecine yönelik çıkarımlar sağlamaktadır.
