Saying that distance education experienced with the coronavirus epidemic supports the student-centered education model, Asst. Prof. Dr. Derya Kavgaoğlu said: "The student-centered education philosophy raises autonomous, self-directed and self-sufficient students that the 21st century needs.”
The educational digital transformation, experienced with the coronavirus epidemic and affecting the whole world, necessarily introduced the masses to distance education and hybrid education forms. Stating that transition to these forms of education would take years in normal time, Asst. Prof. Dr. Derya Kavgaoğlu said: “The pandemic period quickly turned a transformation that could take a long time to be put into effect with discussions on educational, technological, economic and political grounds, into our social reality. Education Management Systems (LMS), synchronous and asynchronous training contexts, webinars, management of virtual classrooms, learning environments enriched with web 2.0 tools soon became an educational terminology that we adapt to globally.”
