courses. The distance learning method has been applied in all academic units in
Turkish language courses since two years In Hacettepe University. This study
was carried out in Hacettepe University associate and undergraduate programs in
order to determine the success and effects of this method in Turkish Language
lesson. Associate and undergraduate students grades were obtained for Turkish
Language lessons and the results were examined and compared by using the
screening method. Before starting to this study, necessary permissions were
taken from the ethics committee of Hacettepe University (H.Ü.). The Microsoft
Excel program was used in the evaluation and analysis of the data. As sample
unit for undergraduate program H.Ü. Engineering Faculty Department of Geomatics
Engineering was selected. For associate degree program, H.Ü. Başkent OSB

Technology, Air Conditioning and Cooling Technology, Map and Cadastre programs
were selected. After evaluation, For Turkish Language lesson, it was found that
the success rates of the students in the undergraduate program were
significantly higher than those of the students studying in the associate
degree program. When the reasons for the low success rates were investigated,
it has been concluded that there is a the lack of motivation related to the
lesson, lack of mutual interaction with the teaching staff and inadequacies in
the technical infrastructure. Along with the results, proposals have been made
to increase the success rates of associate degree students.
