Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the perceptions of distance education students about distance education by using metaphor technique. The working group included 220 students enrolled in Suleyman Demirel University, Distance Education Vocational School in 2014. Phenomenology method was chosen as the qualitative research design in this study. Participants were given a questionnaire consisting of demographic questions and the prompt “Distance Education is like …….…. Because ………..” to articulate their conceptualizations of distance education. The data were analyzed by content analysis method and then themes and categories were formed. The perceptions of students about distance education are interpreted according to the determined themes and categories. Metaphors were collected in five categories: Flexibility, Accessibility, Educational, Interaction and Affective. It was seen that the majority of the students were using positive metaphors and the perceptions of distance education were positive.

Özet

Çalışmanın amacı, metafor (mecaz) tekniğini kullanarak uzaktan eğitim öğrencilerinin uzaktan eğitime yönelik algılarını tespit etmektir. Çalışma grubunu 2014 yılında Süleyman Demirel Üniversitesi Uzaktan Eğitim Meslek Yüksekokulu’nda eğitim alan 220 katılımcı oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmada nitel araştırma desenlerinden Olgubilim modeli seçilmiştir. Katılımcılardan demografik özelliklerinin yanı sıra “Uzaktan Eğitim …………..gibidir. Çünkü………………..” ibaresindeki boşlukları çevrimiçi bir form aracılığıyla doldurmaları istenmiştir. Veriler içerik analizi yöntemi ile analiz edilerek, temalar ve kategoriler oluşturulmuştur. Öğrencilerin uzaktan eğitim hakkındaki algıları belirlenen temalara ve kategorilere göre yorumlanmıştır. Metaforlar; Esneklik, Erişilebilirlik, Eğitsel, Etkileşim ve Duyuşsal olmak üzere beş kategoride toplanmıştır. Öğrencilerin çoğunluğunun olumlu metaforlar kullandığı ve uzaktan eğitime yönelik algılarının pozitif yönde olduğu görülmüştür.
