Özet:

The increase in the use of digital technologies and the intense pressure on life can cause some psychological problems in individuals. One of the psychological problems caused by the intensive use of technology is technostress. In the literature, it is stated that technostress has a significant effect on teachers' job performance. In this study, the technostress levels of teacher candidates who are studying at the faculty of education and who will be teachers in the future and who will work in educational environments were investigated. In the 2018-2019 academic years, data were collected from 484 students studying in the last year of Necmettin Erbakan University Ahmet Keleşoğlu Faculty of Education. The scale for determining the technostress levels of teachers/pre-service teachers was used as a measurement tool. As a result of the research, it was seen that pre-service teachers had a medium level of technostress in their technostress levels and sub-dimensions of learning-teaching process-oriented, vocational-oriented, technical-subject-oriented, personal-sourced and social-focused. In addition, it was found that the technostress levels of pre-service teachers did not differ according to their gender, department of education, monthly income level and internet usage time. Some suggestions were made in line with the findings obtained.
