The aim of this research is to address the perspectives of future special education teachers on assistive technologies with a competency-oriented approach. For this purpose, 41 senior teacher candidates studying in the special education department of education faculties of 3 universities were interviewed in the fall term of 2020–2021. In order to reach the aim of the research, three semi-structured questions prepared by the researcher by taking expert opinions were asked.
