Abstract

Integrating at a contemporary level of ICT use in teaching, where all actors such as teachers, parents, students, policymakers and service providers play roles in creating e-education spaces, is the key step for gradual transition to a digital society based on knowledge. The study undertakes to analyze the attitudes of primary school teachers regarding professional development and the use of technology in teaching. The sample in this study consists of 172 primary school teachers randomly selected. The questionnaire provides quantitative data and information related to: a) participation in training/workshop on the use of technology in teaching; b) the level of benefits; c) training/workshop needs, d) teachers' attitudes regarding the use of teaching technology. The findings showed that most teachers claim to be partially capable of integrating teaching technology and that they need training on using hardware or software. Most of them claim that the use of technology in teaching is very effective, helps teachers to learn better their students.
