Teachers' Experiences and Views Regarding Distance Education Courses for Foreign Language Teaching at Secondary Education Level
Arslan, Nahide
International Education Studies, v15 n1 p99-110 2022
The COVID-19 pandemic is a significant event for the whole world and our country. It is thought that this epidemic, which started in 2020 and whose effects continue to be felt, has negatively affected all areas of life and will continue to affect them for a long time. Countries have taken a series of measures to prevent the spread of the epidemic, and within the framework of these measures, every level and sector of education has had to switch from the face-to-face education model to distance education practices. In this context, the aim of our study is to examine the experiences and views of teachers regarding distance education courses in foreign language teaching at secondary education level and to offer suggestions for the future. The study group of the research, which was prepared within the scope of qualitative research, consists of 20 foreign language teachers, who were determined with a holistic multiple case design, one of the purposive sampling methods. A questionnaire consisting of open-ended questions was sent to the participants via WhatsApp due to the ongoing epidemic conditions, and the data obtained were subjected to content analysis. Participants stated that distance education courses were not spent productively for students, but that they could be adapted to the new order with a number of measures to be taken.
