摘要：The purpose of this study is to reveal the importance of technology in education and
to explore the professional competencies of Turkish language and literature teachers
on the basis of usage and management of technology skills. In the quantitative
dimension of this study, the significant difference between the opinions of Turkish
language and literature teachers on the necessity of technology and their personal
characteristics were examined. The qualitative dimension, on the other hand,
investigated whether school managers emphasised technology usage and
management skills in their expectations of Turkish language and literature teachers.
The problem sentence of the study is therefore “what are the professional
competencies of Turkish and literature teachers on the basis of usage and management
of technology skills?” This study examines both teachers (n=99) and school managers
(n=26) who worked at the secondary education level in Cyprus during the 2017-2018
academic year. A questionnaire was prepared by the researchers with the purpose of
determining the technology usage status of teachers and the extent to which they
believe that using technology is necessary. A semi-structured interview form was
prepared in order to determine the expectations of school managers from Turkish
language and literature teachers and their professional competencies. In order to be
able to analyse quantitative data in the study, frequencies and percentages were used,
which are descriptive statistics. Additionally, the chi-square test was applied in order to
determine whether there were any differences in the answers given by teachers
according to the independent variables. Content analysis was conducted in order to
analyse the qualitative data. Based on the findings of the study, it can be said that
teachers must accept the reality that even though they agree that technology is
necessary, this opinion in fact has no value as technology is still not used. The
expectations of school managers from language and literature teachers were evaluated
and only a limited number of managers (only 1 student out of 26) emphasised that
teachers should be competent in using technology.
