Adaptation of the Student Expectations of Online Learning Survey Revised (seols-R) Into Turkish

Abstract

The aim of this study is to adapt the Student Expectations of Online Learning Survey Revised [SEOLS-R] developed by Harris, Larrier and Castano-Bishop (2011) into Turkish. For this purpose, the adaptation process of the scale, which consists of 7 factors and 43 items in the 5-point Likert structure, started first with the necessary permissions, and then a translation and cultural adaptation process was carried out. After the cultural adaptation process, the construct validity of the scale was tested with 411 students who study in distance education programs of Amasya University. After the construct validity findings, the reliability values of the scale were examined. In line with the findings, it was concluded that the Turkish version of the SEOLS-R scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool suitable for Turkish culture. © 2020 Karadeniz Technical University.
