Özet

Problem Statement: In educational systems, teachers and preservice teachers are the keys to the effective use of technology in the teaching and learning processes. Predicting teachers' technology acceptance and use remains an important issue. Models and theories have been developed to explain and predict technology acceptance. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) is a validated model. While the number of studies designed for teachers or preservice teachers is limited, it is used to determine the variables influencing individuals' technology acceptance. Therefore, the development of an instrument based on UTAUT is important for measuring preservice teachers' acceptance and use of information and communication technologies.
