Abstract	:	The purpose of this quantitative study was to investigate factors (i.e., age, gender, experience, professional development, and self-efficacy) that affect the use of technology by teachers in their teaching process in classes and how the government of Saudi Arabia can effectively address these factors. The study intends to bridge the gap regarding how these factors as a whole affect the use of technology in Saudi Arabia. The results show no significant correlation between teachers’ self-efficacy and age or years of teaching experience. However, hours spent in professional development were significantly correlated with teachers’ level of self-efficacy. There was also significant correlation between teachers’ use of technology and their age and years of teaching experience, with a positive relationship between years of teaching experience and technology use in the classroom and a negative relationship between the teacher’s age and technology use in classroom. There was no correlation between hours spent in professional development and teacher’s level of technology use. There was a positive correlation between teachers’ self-efficacy and their use of technology in their instruction, but no relationship was found between teachers’ gender and their self-efficacy. However, male teachers tend to use technology more than female teachers.
