Descriptive analysis is used in the statistics of data. Findings: When the findings of the study were examined, it was found that the majority of the teachers did not receive any training about the use and integration of technology in the classroom, but the majority of them used technological devices in their activities. While most teachers do not use any program to prepare activities, they still need an in-class internet connection. It was determined that teachers needed computers most of the technological tools.
