Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the perceptions of the sport sciences students on distance education in terms of the advantages, disadvantages, difficulties, concerns, and suggestions during the COVID-19 period. The mixed method was used in the study. Participants were 312 volunteer university students. A questionnaire and an open-ended question were used. Results indicated that male students considered the advantages of distance education more important. In addition, students studying in the departments of Coaching Education and Physical Education and Sport Teaching considered the disadvantages of distance education more important. Female students considered the difficulties of distance education less important, and students who prefer distance education had more concerns about distance education. In conclusion, students suggested extending the duration of the lesson, strengthening the technology and internet infrastructure, conducting the lessons interactively, teaching the lessons more efficiently by the teachers, and standardizing the lesson practices.
