It is very essential to enhance and improve DE system infrastructure investments consistently to prevent
capacity and connection problems. Intense efforts have to be made and coordinated by and between university
administration, public and private student dormitories to support needy students for accessing a computer with
internet for DE courses. The interrruptions at DE courses because of technical problems at online connections
have a significant negative impact on student and lecturer motivation.
Most of the perceptions about DE method acceptance level were in favor of the DE system as seen in Table 4.
Respondents perceieved DE method as a technologic innovation, very practical, affordable and system of the
future. They thought a little resilience against DE method was normal just because it was a new system and it
would be convenient for them to take all of the courses through DE method. All these favourable perceptions
were significant in a very high level. But they also thought that DE method was just a new way of making more
money by universities at the same significancy level. At a considerable level they stated DE method was an
unnecessary application.
We estimate the reason of the negative perception as 'DE method was an unnecessary application' was the
profile of the respondents. All of the respondents were formal education students. They were taking only four
courses in their curriculum by DE method. However ensuring better student satisfaction from DE method may
change that unfavourable perception.
As may be seen in Table 5 analysis results about problems in Distance Education applications, respondents stated that the
problems encountered in DE system were always solved by technicians in time and the lecturers were always
attentive with their courses in DE method. They thought they were adequately informed about how to use Distance Education
method. Favourable perceptions were significant in a very high level. They didn't agree that the communication
with the lecturer was limited at Distance Education method.
