The Transition of Perception towards Online Lessons and Their Management:

Taking Writing Classes as the Case

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to inspect and understand the author’s view of lessons and lesson management during the online teaching caused by the Covid-19 Pandemic. As a teacher, for the first time in my life, from the academic year 2020-2021, I was forced to manage classes in a non-face-to-face manner. To evaluate how I had managed, I took writing classes as a case and found out that the voices of students were my greatest source of information and that the burden and the relationship between class members were my centres of attention. With the prolonged online classes, the perception about it has also gradually changed.
