COVID-19 EĞİTİM SÜRECİNE KÜRESEL BİR BAKIŞ VE TÜRKİYE’NİN BU SÜREÇTEKİ EĞİTİM REAKSİYONLARININ DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Öz

2020 yılının ilk aylarında ortaya çıktığı Çin’den dünyaya yayılan Corona virüsü hastalığı, çoğunlukla şiddetli akut solunum yolu ve buna bağlı sendromlarla sonuçlanan ciddi, ölümcül ve oldukça bulaşıcı bir hastalıktır. Bu bağlamda, okulların dünya genelinde kapanmasının ardından, milyonlarca öğrencinin müfredatın geri kalanını çevrimiçi olarak takip etmesi veya eğitmenlerinin rehberliğinde çevrimiçi araçlarla uzaktan öğrenmeye devam etmesi, çeşitli çevrimiçi ödevler yapması, diğer çevrimiçi kaynaklardan alternatif şekillerde çalışması gerekmiştir. Çalışma, K-12 eğitim seviyelerindeki uzaktan eğitim sürecini Türkiye örneği merkezinde kıyaslamalı olarak dünya genelinde detaylandırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma, Türkiye’nin pandemi sürecinde eğitime verdiği reaksiyonun küresel ölçekte çoğu ülkeye kıyasla oldukça etkili olduğunu göstermektedir. Çalışma içindeki bazı global çaplı bilgi, tespit ve çıkarımlar, eğitim uzmanlarının “yeni normal” olarak betimlenen süreçte hükümetlerine uzaktan eğitim için daha sorunsuz ve daha uyumlu eğitim ortamları hazırlamaları noktasında yardımcı olabilir
