Today, extremely fast developments take place in science and technology. These changes and developments reflect upon all systems and give rise to changes in some concepts and processes. Lifelong learning is one of the concepts affected by these changes. Educational institutions are considered to be responsible for spreading knowledge through e-learning, virtual university, Web-based education, distance education, which offer professional development. Therefore, distance education institutions have an important place in the education system of the future. However, innovations and developments have to be followed closely and operationally used for adaptation to the education system of the future within the distance education system as well. A scientific and realistic way of adapting to these developments is possible only if program development efforts are constant. Looking from this framework, teaching design, internationalization, entrepreneurship have given rise to differentiation in the program development of distance education. This is explored in this chapter.

With the Covid-19 pandemic, which was effective all over the world in early 2020, emergency distance education applications started. Universities in Turkey also suffered from this situation and quickly started their own distance education applications using their own facilities. Different applications carried out by universities have had different reflections upon education. For example, while some universities provided compulsory live classes, some universities did not. Students are the most important component of this process. In this respect, the purpose of this study was to examine university students' views about emergency distance education during the Covid-19 pandemic. In this qualitatively designed study, 32 students from 4 different universities were asked for their views. An online questionnaire form made up of open-ended questions was used as the data collection tool. The data were analyzed using the content analysis method, and the themes were created. As a result, two of the four universities used the software of Microsoft Teams as a distance education system, while others preferred the software of Moodle and ALMS. It could be said that the students who used Microsoft Teams, which is an integrated system where live lessons can be held, were more satisfied in this process. In addition, the students' views about the distance education system, the positive and negative aspects of the system, live course practices, communication with the instructor, getting feedback, socialization, motivation, academic performance, comparison with traditional teaching, etc. were reported and interpreted within the scope of the theories of Uses and Gratifications and Diffusion of Innovations. It was seen that among the university students almost all of whom were anxious before the distance education, the worries of those who took live lessons and used an integrated system were completely removed. In this respect, within the scope of the distance education system, it could be stated that the elements of live lessons and interaction have great importance for students. <p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0720/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

O trabalho a seguir nos remete ao desenvolvimento de levar para uma escola de língua italiana situada no coração da Itália o sistema de educação a distância aplicado no Brasil. O objetivo central deste trabalho é mostrar que a modalidade do ensino a distância brasileiro ajudaria a Scuola Dante Alighieri em seu desenvolvimento junto a seus aspirantes a estudantes. Norteado pela metodologia de pesquisa qualitativa, o conteúdo trabalhado aponta elementos de importância fundamental para a aplicabilidade desse método de ensino na escola em questão. A troca de conhecimento na modalidade educacional entre países é uma forma de intercâmbio intelectual que é salutar para os envolvidos; o conhecimento tem que ser expandido e a forma de aplicação mais conveniente para o momento é de fundamental importância para o aprendizado de quem fará uso, pois, no caso desta produção, traremos soluções plausíveis para o desenvolvimento da escola frente a seus aspirantes. Uma vez dado esse trabalho, esperemos que a Scuola Dante Alighieri usufrua dos elementos aqui apresentados e possa com isso aumentar o número de estudantes. Palavras-chave: Desenvolvimento educacional; Educação a distância; Internacionalização. The EaD Tupiniquim in Garibaldi Land AbstractThe following work refers us to the process of taking to an Italian language school located in the heart of Italy the distance education system that is applied in Brazil. The central objective of this work is to show that Brazilian distance education modality would help "Scuola Dante Alighieri" in its development with possible future students. Guided under a qualitative research methodology, content points extremely important elements to the applicability of this teaching method at this school. The exchange of knowledge among countries in the educational modality is a form of intellectual exchange which is beneficial for those involved, knowledge has to be expanded and the most convenient application form in the moment has fundamental importance for those who will use it, as in the case of this production it will bring plausible solutions for the development of the school to its aspirants. Once given this study hopefully "Scuola Dante Alighieri" makes use of the presented elements and may thereby increase the number of students. Keywords: Startup for basic training; distance education; internationalization.
