Summary/Abstract: The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between teachers' 21stcentury teaching skills and their autonomy. The sample of the research, which was carried out with a relational survey design, consists of 297 teachers working in private and public schools in Mersin in the spring term of the 2020- 2021 academic year. The data of the study were collected using the "21stcentury teacher skills scale" and "teacher autonomy scale". In the analysis of the research data, t-test, ANOVA and Pearson correlation coefficient, which are parametric statistical techniques, were used. While it was found that the teachers’ autonomy differed significantly according to the education level worked, no significant difference was found in other variables, either in the 21st-century teacher skills scale or in the teacher autonomy scale. In addition, a positive relationship was revealed between 21st-century teacher skills and teacher autonomy.
