Abstract

This study showed that gender, years of teaching, and school status have a significant relationship to familiarity with computer technologies in Turkey. Lack of hardware, lack of knowledge and skills about using computers, lack of training or insufficient training opportunities, and crowded classrooms were determined as the most important problems that basic education schools face in Turkey. Data suggest that elementary school teachers in Turkey need to be increasingly encouraged to explore the emerging technologies for teaching. The results of this study can be used in the educational systems of newly developing countries to overcome the difficulties mentioned in Turkey’s case.
