Özet

Bu araştırmanın amacı, İnönü Üniversitesinde öğrenim gören örgün ve uzaktan eğitimöğrencilerinin çevrimiçi öğrenci bağlılık düzeylerinin bazı değişkenler açısındanincelenmesidir. Örgün eğitim ve uzaktan eğitim öğrencilerinin çevrimiçi bağlılıkdüzeyleri öğrenim türü, cinsiyet ve akademik başarı değişkenleri açısından betimlenmişve analiz edilmiştir. İlişkisel tarama deseninde yapılandırılan araştırmaya İnönüÜniversitesinin 5/ı derslerini (Atatürk İlkeleri ve İnkılap Tarihi, Türk Dili ve Yabancı Dil)uzaktan eğitim yoluyla alan 646 örgün eğitim öğrencisi ile tüm derslerini uzaktan eğitimyoluyla alan 298 uzaktan eğitim programı öğrencisi olmak üzere toplam 944 öğrencikatılmıştır. Verilerin toplanması amacıyla ‘Çevrimiçi Öğrenci Bağlılık Ölçeği’kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonucunda uzaktan eğitim öğrencilerinin çevrimiçiortamlarda kendilerini daha rahat hissettikleri; örgün eğitim öğrencilerinin çevrimiçiöğrenci bağlılık düzeylerinin düşük olduğu ve çevrimiçi derslerde kendilerini daha azrahat hissettikleri görülmüştür. Ayrıca araştırmada öğrencilerin topluluk hissinin düşükdüzeyde olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır
