For this purpose, data were obtained by using the survey technique, one of the quantitative research methods. The survey used in the research was applied to associate and graduate students who graduated or are still students at Cappadocia University with distance education in April-May 2021. The number of surveys that can be reached is 148. Arithmetic mean, frequency, percentage, and standard deviation values, and analysis of variance (anova) and independent sample t-test were used to determine whether there was a significant difference in terms of variables, and correlation analysis was applied to determine the relationship between the variables. According to the results, the dimension in which the participants have the highest perception is the personal convenience, while the dimension they have the least perception is the dimension of technology. In addition, it has been determined that there is a perception difference in the dimensions of effectiveness, program evaluation, technology, support services, material, and evaluation according to educational status.
