This study aims to investigate the effects of the “Distance Education and Technology Use during the Pandemic” online education program on the parents’ views on their children’s technology use and online education. In the present study, the research study group, which has a convergent mixed method parallel research design, consisted of 10 mothers and 10 fathers with five-year-old children who attended kindergarten in a province in the inner Aegean region of Turkey and participated in online education during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Parents’ Views on Preschool Children’s Technology Use Scale and Online Education Evaluation Forms were used as data collection tools for this research. This research revealed a positive change in the views of parents on family guidance in technology use, benefits of technology, using technology, harms of technology, ability to use technology, and suggestions after the education they attended. The parents’ views participating in the education about their children’s use of technology and their skills changed positively and that the awareness of parents about their roles regarding their children’s use of technology increased.  \nKeywords: COVID-19, distance education, family education, technology, parents  \n*Faculty of Education, Early Childhood Education Department, Afyon Kocatepe University, Afyonkarahisar,  \nTurkey. E-mail: [akyol.tugce@gmail.com](akyol.tugce@gmail.com)  \nIntroduction  \nThe rate of spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-2019), which was declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) on March 11, 2020, has been tried to be prevented by different practices, such as maintaining social distance, social isolation, working from home and flexible working in many countries (United Nations Children’s Fund [UNICEF], 2020a) . Preschool children have been considered the most sensitive group regarding education during the COVID-19 pandemic. They are in a critical period of their social and cognitive development and often cannot respond to distance education (Silverman et al., 2020) . The fact that early childhood is a critical period in which the skills of coping with emotions and establishing social relations which are learned explain the social-emotional sensitivities of children during the pandemic (Jalango, 2021) .  \nChildren who have been adversely affected by the pandemic also experienced difficulties in accessing distance education (UNICEF, 2020b) . With distance education, concepts and processes related to digital technologies, which have a great place in children’s lives, have begun to be reconsidered. Children, who are defined as digital natives born into the digital world and have no difficulty in using technological tools, establish a parent-child relationship with their parents, who are referred to as digital immigrants that adopt the media tools later (Prensky, 2001).Despite the significant differences between the knowledge and skills of today’s children and their parents in using technological tools, parents had to be a model and guide children in using digital technologies during the pandemic. Parental support is necessary for young children to participate in distance education. Under these circumstances, how parents support distance education and what opportunities they offer their children have become an important issue. Studies conducted in different countries and cultures have determined the views and attitudes of parents of preschool children (Akkaş Baysal et al., 2020; Brom et al., 2020; Burke & Dempsey, 2020; Dong et al., 2020; Lau& Lee, 2021) towards distance education to be both positive a","cbCaijJM1f0HnPov","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijJM1f0HnPov","pdf",572590,22,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the online family education program studied in this paper?\",\"answer\":\"To examine the effects of the online program on parents’ views about their children’s technology use and online education during the COVID-19 pandemic.\"},{\"question\":\"Who participated in the study and what was the research approach?\",\"answer\":\"The study included 10 mothers and 10 fathers with five-year-old children, using a convergent mixed-method parallel research design.\"},{\"question\":\"What did the study find about parents’ views after participating?\",\"answer\":\"Parents’ views on technology guidance, perceived benefits and harms, their children’s ability to use technology, and their own suggestions after the education changed positively.\"}]","The Effect of Distance Education and Technology Use in Online Family Education Program during the COVID-19 Pandemic | PDF",1792082782,55]
