The Dispositions of Student Teachers Regarding the Use of Technology in Education

Öz

The latest technology has re-shaped the world we live in and caused a new paradigm in the educational practices. It is the current practice that teaching and learning situations are designed using technological resources. Therefore, devices such as computers, internet and projectors have taken their places in the classrooms. As in every educational situation, the teacher education situation has a focal place for technological devices. In the education faculty classrooms too, it is possible to see these devices being used for the bachelors’ degree courses. The purpose of this research is to identify the student teachers’ dispositions regarding the use of technological devices for teaching purposes. The participants are junior level students at the ELT department of a Turkish state university. The data are collected via focus group interview and analyzed with thematic analysis. The study yielded results in three domains; evaluation of technology, pedagogical value of ICTs, and practical value of ICTs.
