“…technologies (Hazaël-Massieux, 2016 ). Mobile applications enable sharing of information freely without having to be connected to desktop computers and allows access to the content of the websites at the desired place and time (Desruelle & Gielen, 2013 ). Thus, it provides efficient and effective information from different devices by complying with responsive standards and design principles (Alsadi et al, 2017 ).…”

Responsive design allows users to benefit from the web page without having to worry about screen size and resolution. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of responsive design on usability. For this purpose, a questionnaire consisting of a five-point Likert was applied to university students. According to the results, it was seen that 99.2% of university students had smart phones and used smart phones to connect to internet with a rate of 91.3%. It was observed that the participants' attitudes towards responsive design did not differ according to gender, and students in the 24-26 age group had more desire to use responsive design. And, university students' attitudes towards responsive design did not differ according to the Internet access method. It was found that 38% of the participants had a daily internet usage rate of 4-5 h and they used social media the most. Ease of use has been identified as the most preferred feature (Avg = 3.67/5, 73.4%) of usability in responsive design by evaluating dimensions central tendency measures. With regression analysis, responsive design explains 74.7% of the change in effectiveness (R 2 = 0.747) among the usability dimensions. With regression analysis, 91.5% of usability can be explained with the responsive design (R 2 = 0.915). Usability and responsive design (r = 0.92, p < 0.01) were both found to be positively correlated. It can be said that the academic university websites developed with responsive design are preferred by university students in the pandemic and this has increased usability and effectiveness.

The usage rates of mobile devices have increased day by day in worldwide. One of the main factors which direct people to use this technology is that these devices allow to reach intended content at anytime without depending on any place. This ability also helps the applications developed by designers make more interaction with the target users. The websites which are already one of the most used technology product at reaching information since the past, can be transmitted to more user groups than before on mobile devices through one of the popular trends "Responsive Web Design (RWD)". This concept has began to have an important place at designing the mobil compatible websites. The purpose of this study is to determine how successful the current website of Kırklareli University designed with RWD as mobile compatible is at interacting with users relative to the former web site which was not mobile compatible. In accordance with this purpose, a comparative analysis has been made between the former website and the current website by using Google Analytics (GA) reports on the bases of user visitation. In order to support this analysis, the periodical change of students amount was used. As the result of this study which searches the success difference between the current website and the former website in terms of visitors' choice, it is determined that the current website which is developed with RWD is 3,7 times precede in terms of amount of visitors, 3,2 times precede in terms of the rate of visitor interaction and aproximately 2,7 times precede in terms of the rate of page demonstration. This result reveals that the current website which is designed as mobile competible, is more succesful at interacting with users.
