Abstract :With the twin earthquakes that occurred on February 6, 2024, Türkiye experienced changes in the field of education like in many areas. Universities completed the spring semester with distance education - similar to the process during the pandemic period. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the approaches of second-year students of Sivas Cumhuriyet University, Cumhuriyet Vocational School of Social Sciences to distance education after the earthquake, since they received education both in the formal and distance education process. For this purpose, the “University students\\\' approach to distance education” scale consisting of three factors and 17 items was applied to the students. According to the results, it was seen that the scale items were collected under two factors. It was determined that these factors statistically did not differ according to the variables of “gender”, “place of residence”, “family income” and “reasons for not following the lessons”, but they differed according to the variable of “follow-up status of lessons”. As a result of the study, it can be said that students have more positive views on the distance education process implemented after the earthquake compared to the distance education implemented during the pandemic process.
