The aim of this study is to determine the views of Social Studies teachers on distant education during the COVID-19 process. The case study design, which is frequently used in qualitative research, was used in the study. A semi-structured interview form was used to determine the views of Social Studies teachers on distant education. The data were collected in the spring semester of the 2020-2021 academic year and the content analysis method was used in the analysis of the data. The study group consists of 21 Social Studies teachers working in secondary schools affiliated to Afyonkarahisar center. The teachers generally have stated that they saw distant education as the best method to be applied in this process. In addition, teachers stated that they did not generally make use of distant education before the epidemic process, found face-to-face training sufficient, saw distant education as necessary and benefited during the epidemic process, and that they would not benefit from distant education because of the problems experienced and did not think it was effective after the epidemic process. Teachers have stated the general problems as lack of technical equipment, infrastructure and motivation.
