Our country has also been affected by this process and has moved to distance education at all levels of education in order not to disrupt the educational life. With the transition of our country to distance education, Turkish lessons have also been tried to be conducted with online courses. The Turkish lesson is a lesson of skill, not knowledge.

Along with the changes brought about by distance education, the processing of language skills in courses has also changed.
