To have a successful and effective teaching, it is necessary to make planning and preparation for the lesson. For achieving the highest level of effectiveness and efficiency of teaching, the professional preparation of the teacher and the preparation of the students for the lesson in the cognitive and affective field is as necessary as their preparation in the material-technical field for that lesson. The purpose of the research was to evaluate the difference in the use of material-technical preparation in contemporary teaching in the Republic of North Macedonia and the Republic of Kosovo. The research was carried out in the upper cycle of primary education in both countries, where teachers were surveyed about their material-technical preparation, as well as students, professional associates, and school leaders about the teachers' material-technical preparation. As a research technique, the online survey technique was applied using the Google Forms application. The instrument was the questionnaire compiled for the four subjects included in the survey. The research methods that were used are as follows: analytical and synthetic, descriptive, inductive and deductive, comparative and statistical methods. Data processing was done by: tabular and graphic presentation, frequency, percentage, arithmetic mean, and standard deviation. To show the difference between the two states, a t-test and chi-square were used to test the hypothesis. The data were processed with Excel. This research brought us to the conclusion that there is no significant difference in the use of material-technical preparation in both countries.
