THE RELATIONSHIP OF TEACHERS’ ATTITUDES ABOUT THE USE OF SMARTBOARD TO THE PERCEPTION OF COMPUTER AND INTERNET SELF-EFFICIENCY

Abstract

This study, it was aimed to reveal the relationship between teachers' attitudes towards the use of smart boards and their perception of computer and internet self-efficacy. In addition, the attitude towards the use of smart boards and the variability of computer and internet self-efficacy perception by age and professional seniority were examined. As a result of the research, it was seen that as the age of the teachers increased, their computer and internet self-efficacy perceptions decreased, and their attitudes towards the smartboard also became negative. In addition, there is a positive and weak relationship between computer and internet self-efficacy perceptions and attitudes towards using smartboards. As a result of the research, it was suggested to provide in-service training to teachers over the age of 45 that can increase computer and internet self-efficacy perception. In this way, it is thought that their attitudes towards the smartboard can also be made positive
