Abstract

The goal with the study reported on here was to determine pre-service music teachers’ views regarding the effectiveness, utility, and sufficiency of technology use in music education as well as the associations between their personality traits and their attitudes towards this use. The participants were 224 pre-service teachers studying in music teacher training programmes in Türkiye. The use of technology in music education questionnaire, the big 5 inventory and the attitude towards using technology in music education scale were used as survey instruments to collect the data. The results reveal that attitudes towards using technology in music education showed a positive relation with openness, and a negative relation with neuroticism. A qualified majority of pre-service music teachers think that technology is beneficial and that they can use technology effectively in music education. Nonetheless, the majority of pre-service music teachers still thought that educational technologies were used inadequately during their music education.
