Abstract:

In this study, the effectiveness of museum education practices integrated with virtual teaching environments during the pandemic on the achievement levels of pre-school teacher candidates was evaluated.

In the quantitative dimension, the success levels of teacher candidates for museum education practices were evaluated with the achievement test, and the data related to the qualitative dimension were evaluated with content analysis. Preschool teacher candidates (n = 30) participated in the study.
