The general aim of this study is to determine the knowledge levels of university students on distance education and the Google Meet application programme. The descriptive method was used in the research. The research was carried out in the spring term of 2020–2021, and consisted of 462 volunteer university students studying in the field of computer engineering at various universities in the Marmara region of Turkey. In order to determine the information of the participants, a measurement tool called ‘distance education platforms’ was used, which was developed by the researchers; the measurement tool was collect-ed from the students with the help of an online questionnaire. The raw data obtained from the measurement tool were analysed with the SPSS programme and categorised to reveal their understanding levels. Based on the findings, it has been determined that although digital natives have good views on today’s distance education and Google Meet topics, the level of understanding of the related concepts is quite high.
