World Health Organization announced the COVID-19 pandemic in March, 2020. EBA (Education Information Network) platform and EBA TV were used in Turkey during the COVID-19 pandemic so as to continue education remotely. This study aimed to examine II. Abdülhamid Han secondary school teachers' view toward use of EBA during the COVID-19 pandemic process based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Since the study was conducted in a single secondary school, the study adopted the case study method. The quantitative data were collected from 51 teachers voluntarily with a questionnaire. The qualitative data were collected with one-to-one interviews via the Zoom platform due to the pandemic. Multiple regressions indicated that perceived enjoyment had positive effect on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Self-efficacy had positive effect on behavioral intention and perceived ease of use. The results demonstrated that there were no significant effects of age, gender, and professional experience on teachers' acceptance of the EBA platform for online teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic. Teachers’ branches had no significant effect on teachers' acceptance. However, the branches had a significant effect on perceived ease of use.

Sarıoğlu, Mehmet Tunahan; Mumcuoğlu, Ünal Erkan; Department of Medical Informatics (2022-9)
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has rapidly spread around the world since December 2019. Due to the low confidence in the real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test, which is considered the gold standard, CT images are frequently consulted for diagnosis. CT findings of COVID-19 patients has been analysed and documented in the literature, which are groundglass opacities (GGOs), air bronchograms, vascular enlargement and halo sign. But, these CT findings encountered in COVID-1...
