Abstract
The purpose of this research is to investigate ICT teachers’ opinions about current and future status of their profession and the ICT course they are teaching in Turkey. It was carried out based on the case study approach within the qualitative research context. Using a convenience sampling method, the participants were made up of 10 ICT teachers selected on a voluntary basis from the “Informatics Teachers Platform” group on Facebook. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using descriptive content analysis. According to the findings, participating ICT teachers think that they are seen as technical staff and thus they are not given sufficient and necessary value. This causes professional anxiety among the participants. They find the current ICT course insufficient in terms of content and quantity and consider an update on these issues. Some also worry that the course will lose its importance in the future. Moreover, they think that the role of ICT teachers in the context of technology integration in education is not given enough importance.
