Abstract
Technology-school administration interaction is increasing day by day. In the light of new developments, technology-school administration interaction needs to be understood. The aim of this research is to understand the interaction between technology and school administration. 21 school administrators participated in the research conducted with qualitative research method. The general benefits of technology on school administration are stated in the relevant literature. However, I think that technology has different effects on school administration. Therefore, it offers a different perspective to the literature. According to the research, two themes emerged. These are: Technology-school administration interaction and areas where school administrators benefit from technology. It is understood that technology is interacting with school administration more and more each day. Technology contributes to school administration by making things easier, faster, saving time and paper, and preserving data. However, the use of technology also brings some negativities such as health problems. The double-sided effects of technology inevitably bring about school administrators being technology literate. Technology affects school administration in terms of individual, temporal, organizational memory and current structure depending on the use. In the research, it is recommended that ways of using technology more effectively in school administration be sought.
