 Yapılan bu araştırmada, COVID-19 pandemisi süresince gerçekleştirilen uzaktan eğitim uygulamalarının; özel gereksinimli öğrencilerin sosyal beceri yönünden gelişimleri üzerinde yarattığı etkileri ortaya çıkarmak amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmada nitel araştırma yaklaşımı temel alınmıştır ve yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme tekniği kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada; 2020-2021 Eğitim-öğretim yılında KKTC Milli Eğitim ve Kültür Bakanlığına bağlı, 10 farklı devlet ilkokulunda görev yapan 10 özel eğitim öğretmeni ve 5 farklı devlet ilkokulunda yöneticilik yapan 5 okul müdürü çalışma grubu olarak kullanılmıştır. Özel gereksinimli öğrencilerin becerilerini geliştirmek konusunda, uzaktan eğitimin yaratmış olduğu etkileri belirlemek için çalışma grubuna, araştırmacılar tarafında geliştirilen açık uçlu 5 adet soru sorulmuştur. Verileri yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu kullanılarak elde edilmiş ve her bir görüşme 40-45 dk. sürmüştür. Elde edilen veriler, içerik analizi yöntemi kullanılarak çözümlenmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucunda; COVID-19 pandemisi sürecinde yüz yüze eğitimin yerine geçen uzaktan eğitim uygulamalarının, özel eğitim öğrencilerine sağladığı yararın tartışılır durumda olduğu görülmüştür. Bulgulara göre, uzaktan eğitim kesinlikle yüz yüze eğitimin yerini tutmamakta, sadece hiç eğitim olmamaktansa, en azından uzaktan da olsa bazı uygulamalar yapılıyor anlayışı ile devam etmektedir. Bulgulara göre, fikir ve uygulama bakımından olumlu bir adım olsa dahi özel öğretim öğrencilerinin özel durumlarından dolayı beklenilen başarıya ulaşılamamıştır. Bulgularda, özellikle sosyal becerilerin öğretilmesi ve geliştirilmesi konusunda, uzaktan eğitim uygulamalarının özel gereksinimli öğrenciler açısından yetersiz kaldığı ve bu konuda eksiklik yaşandığı ortaya konmuştur.
