Popis: The present study seeks to investigate the relationship between pre-service teachers’ self efficacy and their internet self-efficacy beliefs. It also seeks to determine how much pre-service teachers’ self efficacy contributes to the prediction of their sense of internet self-efficacy. The study reported in this paper was conducted to examine the relationship between pre-service teachers’ internet self-efficacy and their self-efficacy in Faculty of Education. To this end, 248 pre-service teachers were selected from Faculty of Education in Firat University, in Turkey. The participants were asked to complete the “pre-service teachers’ Sense of Self-Efficacy Scale” and the “Pre-service Teachers’ Internet Self-Efficacy Questionnaire”. Data analysis and statistical calculations revealed that there is a significant relationship between pre-service teachers’ internet self-efficacy and their self-efficacy. To investigate of Internet Self-Efficacy might have more predictive power in predicting pre-service teacher's self-efficacy, regression analysis was run. The conclusions and implications of the research were discussed with reference to the earlier findings.
