In colleges that began distance learning as of March 2020, many colleges are transitioning to a hybrid (blended) educational model for the spring semester, following the recommendations and opinions of the Health Sciences Board of the Ministry of Health and YÖK for the next spring semester. Colleges on the hybrid or blended model for the spring semester have begun announcing the Senate decisions.

Member of the Scientific Committee of the Ministry of Health Prof. Dr. Tevfik Özlü also stated that schools can be opened with a gradually diluted hybrid education model in regions where the epidemic is low. Teacher. Dr. Özlü said: “So there is no obligation here. It is up to the families to send him to this school or not. How is the environment, the viability of the school, the number of students in the classroom, will you be able to obey the rules, will children be able to wear masks all the time? Will the classrooms be ventilated? What is the density of students in the classroom? You should pay attention to these. “If it is according to the rules, if it is not too intense, if the process can be handled carefully, cautiously, schools can start gradually, diluted, as hybrid education, especially in regions where the epidemic is low, where there are not many cases. “

‘I HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION BASED ON A PROVINCE’

Noting that the decision must be made at the provincial level, Prof. Dr. Özlü said: “But if the epidemic is high and the contamination is high, then of course this can exacerbate it. You need to make a decision based on the province. At this point we have reached, decisions about controlling this epidemic will now be made at the provincial level. Therefore, I believe that each province will decide according to its own situation ”.
