In today’s globalized world, societies are connected to each other with economic, social, political and technological reasons. As a result of this close-knit situation, all kinds of material and cultural exchanges between countries have increased. This exchange and overflowing beyond national borders is not always positive. The Covid-19 outbreak in recent days is an example of this. The intensity of inter-country travels for various reasons, the contacts within the scope of this density have unfortunately accelerated the spread of Covid-19 disease at the international level, and countries have found themselves in the grip of this disease before they realize what is happening. It has been inevitable for this disease, which is derived in Wuhan, to spread all over the world and to be declared as a pandemic by the World Health Organization. As a result, life has started to be unusual for everyone, and the entire sector and system operations have undergone a rapid change. This change has showed itself in education systems as the remote execution of learning and teaching is based on information technologies. Although initially small, the number of countries that interrupt education for a long time has increased day by day. In this descriptive study where general survey method has been used, the effects of Covid-19 outbreak on education in Turkey and in the World, and distance education approaches adopted by countries have been investigated.
