This chapter aimed to systematically evaluate theses and articles that were published between the years 2000-2019 in Turkey related to school technology leadership in terms of their topics, methods, results, and recommendations. Web of Science, ERIC, SCOPUS, ULAKBIM, and Turkish National Thesis Center were applied. In this context, 42 studies were examined. Findings indicated that technology leadership studies mostly focused on technology leadership competencies, technology leadership behaviors, and technology leadership roles. The descriptive survey design was found to be used frequently in technology leadership studies. According to the perceptions of teachers and principals, it was determined that principals exhibited high levels of technology leadership competencies, behaviors, attitudes, and roles. On the other hand, it was noted that there is a dearth of studies conducted on variables related to technology leadership and the factors that affect the principals being the technology leaders.

Some school administrators may be ill prepared to lead their staff into the digital landscape of the 21st century. Technology leadership is not limited to administrators. Teacher technology leaders have arisen in some institutions as a means of meeting the needs of fellow faculty and students. These teacher technology leadership practices may serve as a catalyst in altering school culture to embrace technology throughout the curriculum. This is explored in this chapter.

This study analyzes the perception that teachers and management team members in secondary school education have of technology-based educational innovation (TEI). Two questionnaires and in-depth interviews permit us to analyze leaders’ perspective of planning, development, and evaluation. The school leaders’ view diverges from that of the regional/national education policy makers and is closer to the view developed in pedagogy for leading the process of introducing technology in classrooms and influencing innovation in teachers’ practice. Based on reflection on the leadership–technology–innovation relationship, we derive a top-down model for use by teachers, schools, the community, and education authorities.
