Primary Evaluation of Mathematics Lessons in Primary School Distance Education Processes

The aim of this study, together with the changes in education that occurred during the Covid-19 pandemic process that affected the whole world, is to examine the effects of distance education at the primary school level on teacher candidates, parents of primary school students and teacher candidates and the effects of these processes on students' learning and development in mathematics classes. Studying is a qualitative and phenomenological study. The phenomenon of the study is "distance education". The study group consists of 32 classroom teachers, 77 parents of primary school students, 95 primary school students and 75 classroom teacher candidates. Data was collected via Google Forms and content analysis was performed on the obtained data. As a result of the research, it was determined that primary school students could not get the expected efficiency due to reasons such as their attention being distracted in a short time, not being able to establish an emotional bond with their teachers and the school not being physically present. Suggestions to increase the efficiency of distance education are presented in the light of the findings since primary school students are young and attach importance to physical conditions.
