Abstract
The digital transformation that we face every day requires new skill sets. Digital technologies are offering new ways of learning and teaching. The aim of the study is to describe and analyze perceptions of student teachers about their skills in using technology. The study takes over to answer the questions: (1) What are the attitudes of student teachers versus technology? (2) What are student teachers' perceptions on their ability to use technology? (3) What are student teachers' perceptions about technology integration in teaching? The sample in this study consisted of 96 randomly selected third-years' study students enrolled in the educational program "Teacher for Primary Education". The questionnaire was used for the collection of data, where the answer for each of the alternatives is measured with the Likert scale. Findings showed that most of the student teachers have started to use the computer after the age of 15 years, i.e. at a relatively advanced age. Most of them have a smart phone, while a small part is equipped with laptop or I-pad. Regarding perceptions of the skills in technology, student teachers perceive different levels of skills depending on the complexity of tasks. Most of the students say that in the study program "Teacher for Primary Education" they face the integration of technology into teaching.
