ÖZET
 Amaç: Koronavirüs hastalığı-2019 [coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID- 19)] pandemisinin en çok etkilediği alanlardan birisi de eğitim aktiviteleridir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, COVID-19 pandemisi sürecinde fizyoterapistlerin eğitim aktivitelerindeki değişimleri belirlemektir. Fizyoterapistlerin, COVID-19 pandemisi öncesi ve sonrasında kongrelere/kurslara/konferanslara ortalama katılım sayıları ve süreleri sorgulandı. Bununla birlikte e-öğrenme etkinlikleri yoluyla öğrenmenin, yüz yüze öğrenme etkinliklerine kıyasla en önemli avantaj ve dezavantajları da sorgulandı. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Değerlendirme anketi, aktif olarak çalışan fizyoterapistlere Google Formlar kullanılarak iletildi. Katılımcılara araştırmacıların yakın çevresi vasıtasıyla ve Türkiye Fizyoterapistler Derneği eposta ağı kullanılarak ulaşıldı. Çalışma, pandemi döneminde aktif olarak çalışan 21-55 yaş aralığında 158 (111 kadın, 47 erkek) fizyoterapistin katılımıyla gerçekleşti. Bulgular: Bireylerin COVID-19 pandemisinden itibaren pandemi öncesine göre kongrelere/kurslara/konferanslara ortalama katılım sayısında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir azalma gösterdiği belirlendi (p<0,001). Bireylerin COVID-19 pandemisi sırasında pandemi öncesine göre ortalama olarak meslekle ilgili katıldıkları yüz yüze eğitim etkinliklerine katılım sürelerinde de istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir azalma olduğu tespit edildi (p=0,004). E-öğrenme etkinlikleri yoluyla öğrenmenin, yüz yüze öğrenme etkinliklerine kıyasla en önemli avantajları olarak; katılımcıların %58,2'si 'yüz yüze öğrenme imkânı bulamayan kişilere e-öğrenme yoluyla erişebilmek', %51,9'u 'mesleki eğitim giderlerinin azalması' olduğunu belirtti. E-öğrenme materyalleri yoluyla öğrenmenin en önemli dezavantajları olarak; katılımcıların %66,5'i 'klinik uygulamalar içeren eğitimlerin pratik edilmesindeki sınırlılıklar', %52,5'i de 'eğitimleri için gerekli teknolojik olanaklara bireylerin bir kısmının erişememesi' olduğunu belirtti. Sonuç: COVID-19 pandemisi birçok aktivitede ve alışkanlıklarda farklılıklara yol açtığı gibi fizyoterapistlerin mesleki eğitim alışkanlıklarında, eğitimlere katılımlarında ve eğitim platformları/yöntemlerinde de değişikliklere neden olmaktadır. Yeni normal döneminin fizyoterapistlerin eğitim aktivitelerinde önemli değişikliklere sebep olabileceği ve eğitimlerin sürdürülme yöntemleri, süreleri ve şekilleri açısından bazı yeni alışkanlıklar oluşturabileceği düşünülmektedir.

ABSTRACT
 Objective: The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic had a major impact on educational activities. The aim of the present study was to determine the changes in physiotherapy educational activities during the pandemic. The average number and duration of physiotherapists' attending congresses/ courses/conferences before and after the pandemic were questioned. Furthermore, the most essential advantages/disadvantages of e-learning were also discussed. Material and Methods: The evaluation questionnaire was delivered via Google forms to actively working physiotherapists. Participants were contacted through the researchers' close circle and the Turkish Physiotherapists Association e-mail network. The study included 158 (111 female, 47 male, age range: 21-55 years) actively working physiotherapists during the pandemic. Results: It was determined that individuals showed a statistically significant decrease in the average number of attendance at professional educations during the pandemic compared to the pre-pandemic period (p<0.001). It was found that during the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a statistically significant decrease in the average time spent participating in face-to-face professional educations compared to the pre-pandemic period (p=0.004). The most important advantages of e-learning compared to face-to-face learning, according to 58.2% of the participants, were found as 'access to students who don't have opportunity to attend face-toface courses' and according to 51.9% of the participants were found as 'reduction in vocational education expenses'. The most significant disadvantage of e-learning was indicated by 66.5% as 'limitations in the practice of clinical trainings' and by 52.5% as 'some of the individuals cannot access the required technology for educational activities'. Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic affects physiotherapists' learning habits, participation in educational platforms/practices, as well as several habits and routines. It is predicted that the 'new normal period' would result in major differences in the educational practices of physiotherapists, as well as the formation of some new procedural patterns, durations, and methods of continuing educational activities.
