Abstract


There are various problems related to the competence of elementary school teachers, especially in pedagogical and professional competence. This study aims to describe and analyze the abilities of elementary school teachers pursuing professional teacher education in technology mastery. This qualitative descriptive research method examined 147 elementary school teachers who participated in professional education at Universitas Negeri Semarang in 2023. Data collection methods include questionnaires, participatory observations, and in-depth interviews. The study results showed that 97% of teachers have laptops and smartphones for online lectures, and more than 80.3% are in areas with strong internet networks, even though they are spread across 13 different provinces. Although 65.9% have experience teaching in elementary schools, they are willing to take part in professional education to improve their competence. The conclusion is that the availability of tools and the mastery of software used in online lectures positively affect the implementation of lectures.  Implementing lectures positively influences the level of material mastery and graduation from professional education programs.
