Abstract
The aim of the study is to determine approaches of administrators and teachers related to the use of interactive whiteboards and tablet PCs which are distributed in schools within FATİH project. Research was carried out with 32 administrator and 36 teachers who works at FATİH project implementation schools. Seperate forms consisting of different open-ended questions were posed to teachers and administrators. Data was analyzed with content analysis. Administrators indicate that the courses supported by this technology will provide effective learning; courses will be more efficient in a shorter time; motivation, interest and involvement will be affected in a positive direction. Teachers states that technology supported courses will increase the interest of students and develop various skills. According to the statements the most important problem related to the use of these technologies seems to be caused by lack of sufficient educational e-content.
