Abstract

Information and communication technologies are slowly becoming an important part of the life of universities, where they can be a source of changes and innovations. Some of these changes affect the position of the university teachers themselves which is a fact that might influence their attitudes to modern technologies. These teachers’ attitudes are very important for successful implementation of modern technologies into higher education, so it is necessary to study the process of their formation. One of the available methods for this purpose is qualitative research, which tries to comprehend the essence of the studied problem.
