Özet

This study was designed to examine the relationship between teachers' self-efficacy beliefs in using Web 2.0 technologies and their level of proficiency in using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). The study group comprised of 336 teachers employed in different branches in state schools. Within this scope, "ICT Integration Proficiency for Teachers (TIPS)" and the "Web 2.0 Practical Content Development Self-Efficacy Belief (W2SEBS)" scales were used. The validity of the scales used in the research was tested with confirmatory factor analysis and the scales were seen to be valid. The multiple regression model created for the prediction of Web 2.0 self-efficacy beliefs by information and communication technology integration proficiency was found to be significant. Accordingly, ICT proficiency of teachers is thought to assist in the development of self-efficacy beliefs about the use of Web 2.0 tools.
