Abstract

Covid-19 which is emerged for the first time in Wuhan, China on December 31, 2019, and later declared as a global pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO), disrupted education and training activities in universities. With the sudden closure of the universities, educational institutions have turned to distance education systems. Therefore, the transition from traditional education to online lessons has been made.This research aims to determine the online learning readiness levels of undergraduate students studying in Tourism during the Covid-19 pandemic and examine the relationship between their demographic characteristics. The data were obtained from using the online survey technique. Relational scanning model was used in the research.For the Analysing of the data which is obtained by survey technique, percentage, frequency, t-test and variance analysis were used with the SPSS program. According to the research findings; Undergraduate students’online self-efficacy and learner control are high; computer self-efficacy and self-learning were found to be moderate, and motivation factor for e-learning was low. In general, it can be said that undergraduate students are ready to learn online in the context of this research. Research findings shows that undergraduate students are ready for online learning. During the Covid -19 pandemic process in Turkey, improvements need to be made to increase the quantity and quality of online trainings.

Özet

31 Aralık 2019 tarihinde ilk kez Çin’in Wuhan kentinde ortaya çıkan daha sonra Dünya Sağlık Örgütü (DSÖ) tarafından salgın olarak ilan edilen Covid-19 ile birlikte üniversitelerdeki eğitim ve öğretim faaliyetleri kesintiye uğramıştır. Üniversitelerin ani bir şekilde kapanmasıyla birlikte eğitim kurumları uzaktan eğitim sistemlerine yönelmiştir. Bu nedenle, geleneksel eğitimden çevrim içi derslere geçiş yapılmıştır. Bu araştırma, Covid-19 salgını sürecinde turizm eğitimi alan lisans öğrencilerinin çevrim içi öğrenmeye hazırbulunuşluk düzeylerini belirlemeyi ve demografik özellikleri arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Veriler, online anket tekniğiyle elde edilmiştir. Araştırmada ilişkisel tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Anket tekniğiyle toplanan verilerin analizinde, SPSS programı ile yüzde, frekans, t-testi ve varyans analizlerinden yararlanılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre; lisans öğrencilerinin çevrim içi iletişim öz yeterliği ve öğrenen kontrolü yüksek; bilgisayar öz yeterliği ve kendi kendine öğrenme orta düzeyde ve e-öğrenmeye yönelik motivasyon faktörü ise düşük olarak bulunmuştur. Araştırma bulguları, lisans öğrencilerinin çevrim içi öğrenmeye hazır olduklarını göstermektedir. Covid-19 salgını sürecinde Türkiye’de çevrim içi eğitimlerin niceliğinin ve niteliğinin artırılması yönünde iyileştirmeler yapılması gerekmektedir.
