The main aim of this study is to explore prospective teachers’ perceptions of web specific selfefficacy. Data for the study were collected through a 21-item, five-point Likert-style scale from a total of 807 prospective teachers at the Science Faculty, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Faculty of Education and College of Physical Education and Sports at Fırat University. Web specific self-efficacy scale was administered to all participants. Independent samples t-test, one way ANOVA and Kruskal Wallis H were utilized to analyze the data. Findings revealed that male prospective teachers had higher web specific selfefficacy level than female students. Prospective teachers enrolled at the department of Computer and Instructional Technologies had higher self-efficacy level than those enrolled at other departments. Web specific self-efficacy level of the graduates of numerical field was higher than other field graduates. Those who accessed the internet at home had higher levels of self-efficacy than those who had access at other places. Moreover, the prospective teachers having more on-line hours per week, in general, displayed more positive web specific selfefficacy than those who had less access. Some useful implications are discussed based on the research findings.
