Abstract:
Covid-19 pandemic, which continues to affect all areas of life, also has significant effects on education. Due to the restrictions applied during the pandemic period, students had to continue their spring term education through distance education tools. It is important to understand the factors affecting students’ satisfaction towards learning and their perceived success, in order to make virtual learning more effective which is expected to continue after the pandemic. In this sense, a survey study was conducted among 180 students studying at two secondary schools on the Anatolian side of Istanbul. Research findings revealed that the effects of virtual course flexibility and perceived usefulness on both virtual learning satisfaction and perceived success were found positive and significant, where the effect of perceived usefulness was found to be highest. Besides, the findings revealed that technology quality positively affected the perceived success, whereas student’s computer anxiety negatively affected their learning satisfaction. © 2020.
