Türkiye'de Covid-19 Sırasında Üniversite İngilizce Hazırlık Sınıfı Öğrencilerinin Çevrimiçi Öğrenmeye Yönelik Tutumlarına İlişkin Vaka İncelemesi

Yıl 2020, Cilt: 4 Sayı: 2, 73 - 93, 31.12.2020

Öz

Çevrimiçi teknolojideki gelişmelere istinaden, uzaktan eğitim uzun süredir tartışılmaktadır. Çevrimiçi eğitime öğretmenlerin aldıkları eğitimi (Bennett ve Lockyert, 2006) ve öğrencilerin çevrimiçi kurs içeriğini öğrenirken sorumlulukları ve rolleri hakkında sahip oldukları farkındalıkları (Mupinga, Nora ve Yaw, 2006) açısından artan bir vurgu vardır. Yakın gelecekteki eğitim birçok kişi tarafından daha fazla çevrimiçi katılımla resmedilmiş olsa da, hiç kimse 2020'deki eve kapanma gibi ani bir değişim beklemiyordu; bu süre zarfında eğitimin neredeyse tüm paydaşları, öğretim ve öğrenim hakkında bildiklerini tarif edilemez Covid-19 pandemisi nedeniyle çevrimiçi ortamlara uyarlamak zorunda kaldılar. Neredeyse bir hafta içinde dünya genelindeki çoğu eğitim kurumu çevrimiçi eğitime geçmek zorunda kaldı. Bu, sadece yöneticiler ve öğretmenler için değil öğrenciler için de sancılı bir süreç oldu. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, Gaziantep Üniversitesi İngilizce hazırlık sınıfı öğrencilerinin çevrimiçi eğitime geçişe yönelik tutum ve duygularını incelemektir. Öğrenci günlükleri ve röportajlarından elde edilen sonuçların analizi, öğrencilerin geleneksel öğrenmeyi çevrimiçi öğrenmeye tercih ettiklerini ortaya koymuştur. Bulguların çevrimiçi öğrenmenin geleceğine ışık tutması umulmaktadır.

A Case Study of University EFL Preparatory Class Students’ Attitudes towards Online Learning during Covid-19 in Turkey

ABSTRACT
By virtue of advancements in online technology, distance learning has been long discussed. There is an increasing emphasis upon online education, which should affect the training teachers get (Bennett, & Lockyert, 2006), and the awareness learners have about their responsibilities and roles while learning course content online (Mupinga, Nora, & Yaw, 2006). Although near future education has been pictured with more online involvement by many, nobody was expecting such a sudden shift like the lockdown in 2020, throughout which nearly all stakeholders of education on a global scale were forced to adapt all that we know about teaching and learning to online mediums due to the indescribable Covid-19 pandemic. Within almost a week, most educational institutions worldwide had to switch to online education. It was a painful process not only for the administrators and teachers but also for the students. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the attitudes and feelings of English preparatory class students in Gaziantep University towards the shift to online education. The analysis of the results from the journals and interviews revealed that students preferred traditional learning to online learning. The findings are hoped to shed light on the future of online learning.
