Öz: Öz: Dil öğreniminde ve öğretiminde, internet ve Web 2.0 araçları hem öğrenciler hem de öğretmenler için muazzam kaynaklar ve fırsatlar sunar. Bu bağlamda, bu çalışmanın amacı İngilizce okutmanlarının inter- net ve Web 2.0 araçları kullanımlarını araştırmak ve onların öğretim amaçları için internet ve Web 2.0 araçları kullanımına karşı olan tutumlarını incelemektir. Veri toplamak için araç olarak ilgili literatürden ve uzmanların görüşlerinden yararlanılarak bir anket geliştirilmiştir. Anket Türkiyedeki farklı üniversite- lerde çalışan okutmanlara (n=112) online olarak gönderilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler SPSS 20.0 programı kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir ve betimsel istatistik, frekanslar, ortalama, yüzdeler ve standart sapma kullanılarak rapor edilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre İngilizce okutmanlarının internet ve Web 2.0 araçları kullanımına karşı pozitif tutumlarının olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. Okutmanların Web 2.0 araçlarına yönelik pozitif tutumları olmasına karşın bu araçları kendi öğretimlerinde yeterince kullan- madıkları ve internet hakkında bilgi edinmek için kendi çalıştıkları okulların onlara sağladıkları imkanlar- dan memnun olmadıkları sonucu ortaya çıkmıştır.
