Abstract
This study aims at obtaining the opinions of lecturers who work at the Department of Computer Education and Instructional Technology (CEIT) of the Education Faculties of public universities in Turkey regarding their department. The study population of the research, which was conducted with the survey method, was composed of 100 lecturers working at the CEIT departments of the Education Faculties of public universities. The study group was composed of 57 lecturers who submitted their opinions via a questionnaire consisting of two open-ended questions. Raw data obtained were analyzed using the content analysis technique and two themes were detected: teacher education and curriculum. It was concluded as a result of the study that there is an uncertainty in the job descriptions of information technology teachers, and what is expected of the teachers and what is offered in undergraduate education do not match. Also, the Department of Computer Education and Instructional Technology has some structural problems due to its being a technology intensive department, and there are no other international examples at undergraduate level. It is also one of the most recently established programs within the scope of education faculties.
