This study aims to know the opinions of pre-service teachers on their digital
competence and to determine whether these opinions vary according to gender,
branch and perceived level of digital competence. In this study, a cross-sectional
survey model was used. In such a context, the study was conducted with 518
pre-service teachers who were studying in different provinces of Turkey. The study
used a digital competence questionnaire as a data collection tool. When the results
were evaluated, it can be said that the digital competence of pre-service teachers is
moderate and that it varies significantly according to gender, branch and perceived
level of digital competence. It is thought that the results of this study will guide the
researchers as they reveal the needs of the pre-service teachers and contain
information about what should be focused on the training or activities to be
organized to meet these needs.
