It is important to determine the proficiency perceptions and attitudes of the teachers towards Technologies of learning about the tablets in order to integrate the mobile learning technologies and to use the tablet PCs in the educational environments in an efficient way. Therefore, proficiency perceptions and attitudes of the teachers towards the Tablet PC-Supported Education have great importance. There are scales for assessing the proficiency perceptions and attitudes of the teachers in tablet-supported education. There have been found findings about the Proficiency Perceptions and Attitudes of 264 teachers working in the College of Near East towards the Tablet-Supported Education. In this assertion, we mention about an appropriate scale, test and application. For the tests of validity and reliability, the data has been obtained from 264 teachers working in the College of Near East within the school years 2013-2014. AT the end of this, 2 extents (Extent 1: Proficiency perceptions of the teachers about tablet usage, Extent 2: Teachers' attitudes towards Tablet-supported education) have been detected in the scale. Cronbach alpha (a) value belonging to the scale's sub-extents was found as .949 for the proficiency perceptions of the teachers about tablet usage, and as 0.934 for the teachers' attitudes towards the Tablet-supported education. Cronbach alpha (a) value of the general scale was found as 0.953.
