Abstract

The Ministry of Education and Higher Education Council is taking important decisions on implementation for distance education since the first Covid 19 case seen in Turkey on March 23, 2020. Education at all levels from preschool education to higher education started to be carried out remotely. Higher education institutions and medical faculties are trying to manage this process in line with their own facilities. It is seen that the studies or projects that initiated before the epidemic in primary, secondary and higher education regarding digital transformation in teaching and experiences in this direction lead the decisions taken in the process. Filtering the accumulation of knowledge and experience for e-learning, which is widely included in the literature, on the philosophy of education and theories will contribute to the healthy decision-making process. The purpose of this article is to review the studies and discussions in the medical education in order to evaluate the features and implementation of distance education and e-learning models during to the Covid 19 pandemic process. In the article, by considering the concept of learning in terms of educational theories and philosophies, the place of e-learning in this process, their strengths and limitations, and its implementation to the medical education was framed. Besides it has been tried to point out the areas of e-learning that should be discussed in the context of system change.
