The study was conducted in the 2020-2021 academic year with the participation of teachers from different science and art center in Turkey. So, the study group of the research consists of ninety-seven (F=62, M=35, Total= 97) teachers from different branches working in various Science and Art Centers. To collect the data and In order to determine teacher perceptions the teachers of SAC were asked to complete this sentence: ‘Distance education is like......because....’.
