EXAMINATION OF HEALTH SCIENCE UNIVERSITY STUDENTS’ LEVEL OF READINESS FOR E-LEARNING

Öz:
In this study, the e-readiness levels of university students studying in the field of healthsciences were examined in terms of different variables. In this context, whether the level of ereadiness differs according to gender, department, class level, type of education, deviceownership, working status and economic level has been examined. In addition, the relationshipbetween e-readiness level and academic success was investigated. The research sample consistsof 923 health science students studying in different departments. The results of the researchshow that gender, learning type, device type and income level are important factors on the ereadiness level. In addition, the e-readiness levels of the nursing department students, normal(daytime) teaching, 1st year students were found to be low in the study. As the difficulty levelof the courses increased, the level of e-readiness was found to be an important factor onacademic achievement. The results obtained from this research provide important clues foracademicians as well as institutions and organizations providing services in the field of healthsciences who want to switch to distance education. In addition, some suggestions were madein the light of this research results.
