In this study, it was aimed to determine the technology acceptance and usage level of pre-school teachers during the period of Covid-19 pandemic. In the study, descriptive survey and causal-comparative research models were used. The participants of the research were 264 pre-school teachers, work at preschool and kindergarten in the state and private schools in Çanakkale. In the research, it was concluded that the technology acceptance and usage levels of pre-school teachers were high. It was concluded that the technology acceptance and usage levels of pre-school teachers have not differentiated according to the age, professional seniority, type of institution (state / private) and the type of the school (pre-school / kindergarten). It was determined that, while the educational levels of pre-school teachers were increased, the technology acceptance and usage levels were increased. Also, during the Covid 19 pandemic, it was found that technology acceptance and usage levels of pre-school teachers who are very willing to use technology, see themselves very competent, use technology a lot to support online live lessons, participate in in-service trainings a lot, and prefer to teach by distance education in the future were higher.
