Purpose: This study was conducted to determine the perceptions and emotions of nursing and health management students, who had clinical/vocational practice course, about distance learning during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods: Phenomenological design was employed in this qualitative study. The study was conducted with 39 full-time health sciences students in nursing and health management. Data were collected by in-depth interviews. The interviews were conducted with ten open-ended and semi-structured questions between December 2020-January 2021. Data were analyzed using content analysis.
Results: As a result of this study, the perceptions and emotions of the nursing and health management students about distance learning were classified into three themes and 14 sub-themes: “emotional state”, “the effect of distance learning on theoretical courses” and “the effect of distance learning on clinical/vocational practice”.
Conclusion: Results have indicated that distance learning is insufficient especially in terms of clinical/vocational practices and that the emotional states of students are negatively affected.
