Özet:

The goal of this research is to reveal the problems faced in distance education activities during the pandemic period from the point of view of primary school teachers. A total of 329 primary school teachers from 29 provinces of Turkey participated in this study, which was conducted according to the survey model. In the study, where the data was collected by an online survey, the analyses were done using frequency and percentages. When the answers were analyzed, it has been determined that most of them found EBA contents, EBA TV broadcast, and its duration partially useful and sufficient. Also, it was determined that teachers received support mostly from educational sites in this process, and most of them thought it was right to apply live lessons at all grade levels, directing their students to read the books and do assignments from them. It has also been found that most believe that distance learning would not harm the process of face-to-face education, although most attempt to motivate their students by sending messages in the process. Regarding their students; most of the teachers thought that they used EBA content partially efficiently. In this process, it was stated that teachers thought parents were the most efficient. It has been determined that students who do not have internet, computers, tablets, and smartphones at home, and foreign and special education students are the ones negatively affected to a large extent. At the end of the study and recommendations for improving the identified issues were given.
