Özet
Online learning has an old background and is an
efficient method if applied correctly. However, during the pandemic period, it
has been faced with a negative perception due to the wrong practices brought
about by the mandatory and rapid transition. During this pandemic term, most
educational institutions have offered support in this process in order to
explain the process to both their students and instructors. This study examined
Ankara University instructors’ perspectives regarding the emergency remote teaching
period in terms of their professional experience; discipline area; online
instruction experience; and whether they received training in online
instruction. A significant difference has been found in the discipline areas,
online instruction experience, and participation in training program. From the
results of the research, the need to support the instructors according to the
needs specific to the disciplines has been revealed, and it is recommended to
investigate the relationships between self-competency for online teaching and
the perception of institutional support in depth.
