| Abstract: | The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between preservice teachers' digital material design competencies and their use and acceptance of technology. The study was designed based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology developed by Venkatesh et. al. in 2003. Sample of the study consists of 199 pre-service teachers attending to the faculty of education in a state university in Ankara/Turkey. As data collection tools, Digital Material Design Competencies Scale developed by Göçen Kabaran ve Usun, (2021) and Preservice Teachers' Acceptance and Use of Technology Scale developed by Kabakçi-Yurdakul, Ursavas ve Becit-Isçitürk (2014) were used. As a result of the analysis of the data collected in the study, it was found out that; pre-service teachers' digital material design competencies are at a high level. When pre-service teachers' Acceptance and Use of Technology level is investigated, it was observed that the variables of performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social impact, facilitative situations, self-efficacy and attitudes towards technology use were significant predictors of pre-service teachers' behavioral intention for technology use. According to Pearson Correlation analysis, there is a statistically significant positive, linear and strong relationship between preservice teachers' digital material design competencies and their acceptance and use of technology (r=0.914, p=0.000).
