Özet:

Following the earthquake centered in Kahramanmaraş on February 6, 2023, the Council of Higher Education throughout Turkey decided to carry out education and training activities through distance education. In the study, the perceptions of classroom management in distance education of the students who received pedagogical formation training after the earthquake process and the effects of the earthquake in online courses were measured. The research was prepared in qualitative research type and designed in accordance with descriptive and content analysis. The data were provided with two sections consisting of personal and theoretical information and a semi-structured form containing a total of 8 statements, and the opinions of 163 participants were used. In line with the results obtained, "distance education" was found to be moderately efficient. According to the classroom management after the earthquake process, the positive situations encountered in distance education courses were determined as "motivation", "positive classroom atmosphere and interaction", "course presentation forms of the instructors", and the negative situations emerged as "inability to focus on the course during the course" and "worrisome attitudes". After the earthquake process, the positive effects of distance education on online courses were stated as "recording of the courses and being traceable afterward", "course content and documents are already in the system", "being economical in terms of money and time", and the negative effects were "the intensity of the courses on the same days", "internet and systemic problems". It was observed that there were significant differences between the students who were exposed to the earthquake and those who were not. At the end of the research, some suggestions were made to reduce the possible effects of the earthquake on lecturers and university students and to increase the effectiveness of online courses.
