This study investigates mathematics teachers’ readiness towards Education 4.0 and their attitude towards the use of technology in teaching mathematics. The study participants included 162 mathematics teachers in Kota Bharu, Kelantan. A quantitative approach with a questionnaire was employed in this study. Data collected were analysed by using descriptive and t-tests and analysis of variance using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 27. The overall results for mathematics teachers’ readiness towards Education 4.0 lead to uncertainty, which indicates that teachers are still not prepared and lack knowledge about Education 4.0. When grouped according to age, gender and grade level taught, the results show that there is no significant difference between teachers’ readiness towards Education 4.0. Meanwhile, for attitude, the results reveal that teachers have a positive attitude towards the use of technology in teaching mathematics, regardless of their age, gender or grade level taught. However, it shows a significant difference between male and female teachers’ attitudes. For age and grade level taught, the results show no significant difference between mathematics teachers’ attitudes towards the use of technology in teaching the subject. Therefore, the study recommends that teachers should strengthen their positive attitude towards the use of technology in teaching and learning and that the higher authorities also should participate in providing teachers knowledge on Education 4.0 and helping them adapt to current educational changes.
