ABSTRACT
The aim of this study is to examine the experiences of secondary school mathematics teachers facing with the distance education process for the first time due to COVID-19 regarding the mathematics lessons. Therefore, this study employs a case study, which is one of the qualitative research types. The study is conducted with 52 secondary school mathematics teachers working at public and private schools in different regions of Turkey during the 2020-2021 academic year. Convenience sampling method is used to determine the participants. In addition, semi-structured interview technique is used. Finally, content analysis is used during data analysis. The results reveal that (i) the curriculum should be arranged in a way that will increase visualization and integrate it into interactive programs that will make the student more active, (ii) the teachers hold the instruction mostly by using textbooks and smart board applications, (iii) using direct instruction and question-answer methods, the teachers indicate that they mostly encounter problems about internet access, and (iv) the teachers draw attention to the problem that students and teachers are not provided the necessary infrastructure and that they do not have devices with internet access. Thus, the teachers conclude that these problems should be solved first in order to manage the distance education process efficiently.
