This paper reviews literature on the role of technology integration in education and illustrates how integration of technology in learning could transform teacher education by equipping teacher trainees with the skills that enable them to transform learners into empowered and ethical citizens who effectively contribute to sustainable development. Technology integration in education is crucial because the youth today are growing in an environment where they are interacting with various forms of technology and their operations. Integrating technology in their learning is therefore likely to offer them motivation and curiosity to learn as the learning is in the context of their daily experience, thus meaningful. The review is done with a view to making recommendations on how teacher training institutions could support curriculum delivery with mobile technologies in order to set the pace for other learning institutions on the need to provide learners with holistic quality education that meets the needs of today’s dynamic global society. Integration is critical because technology is the major key driver of the 21st century skills (including communication, critical thinking, collaboration, problem solving and innovation), which has revolutionized education, making it accessible anytime and at any place. This paper will focus on the benefits accrued by employing technology to shift teaching from the formal education knowledge production model to a more engaging and collaborative model that is competence based. It is hoped that this review will shed light on the need to reform teacher training curricula content and scope, objectives, teaching methods and resources to ensure that the programme produces teachers who are well equipped with skill that enable them to effectively develop learners with skills that enhance their contribution to the development agenda of the society.

Development opportunities for mobile and ICT learning in teacher education2017 •
The continuous fast developing field of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) is affecting every aspect of our life including education. The purpose of this research is to show the importance of ICT knowledge in Teachers’ education journey (preservice and inservice). The first part of this paper discusses the teacher’s professional knowledge. The second part discusses ICT in Education. Section three explains and discusses the TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) model. Part four and five discuss preservice teachers’ education and inservice teachers’ training respectively. Last part sheds the lights on the benefits of teachers’ networks. Finally, in the digital world we are living, teachers need to be digitally knowledgeable to be able to lead the students to be critically engaged active members.
As schools increasingly adopt new technologies in enhancing teaching and learning, models of teacher professional development are also evolving. To ensure that teacher development programmes effectively assist them in integrating technology in instructional processes, a study was conducted to determine a more acceptable model of teacher professional development. This study employed a quantitative survey methodology in the collection of data towards the development of a model on technology integration in classrooms and the identification of training needs for teachers. A total of 400 teachers were selected to participate in this study using the stratified random sampling technique from primary schools in 10 Regions of Cameroon to identify their preferences in a professional development model. The data was analysed using percentages, frequency counts, mean and standard deviation. The results indicated that teacher-participants showed a strong preference for an ongoing school-based professional development model that supports collaborative learning, problem solving and involves classroom follow-up. A review of the weaknesses in current models as well as literature on best practices in in-service teacher training led to the proposed Mastery of Active and Shared Learning Processes for Techno-pedagogy (MASLEPT) model.
The main aim of this conceptual paper is to provide an overview of effective strategies to support pre-service teachers to adequately integrate ICT in teaching and learning activities. Specifically, the focus is on the strategies included in the SQD (Synthesis of Qualitative Evidence) model: 1) using teacher educators as role models, 2) reflecting on the role of technology in education, 3) learning how to use technology by design, 4) collaboration with peers, 5) scaffolding authentic technology experiences, and 6) providing continuous feedback. To turn this model into practice, the approach of teacher design teams is adopted. A teacher design team can be described as a group of two or more (pre-service) teachers who design (ICT-rich) curriculum materials. Based on the SQD model – theory-and the implementation of the key themes emerging from this model via teacher design teams – practice-, this conceptual paper provides recommendations to improve the potential of pre-service training to enhance future teachers use of ICT in their educational practice.

Integrating Technology Education for Professional Development of Teachers: Developmental ExperiencesToday, in this era of 21 Century, the world economy is experiencing an unprecedented change. New developments in science and technology, media revaluation and internationalization of education and the ever expanding competitive environment are revolutionizing the education scene. A paradigm shift has been noticed in higher education now a day, from 'national education' to 'global education', from 'one time education for a few' to 'lifelong education for all', from 'teacher- centric educations' to 'learner centric education'. These changes make new demands and pose fresh challenges to the established education systems and practices in the country.
Learning is an on-going process and so is the innovation. Knowledge is an outcome of learning and technology is a result of innovation. Today, we belong to the networking age that surpass the communication age. In this age, the concept of education has become modern and elaborative. Now the focus has shifted from imparting knowledge to interaction, discussion and above all encouraging participation. It looks like teaching and technology or teaching with technology implies the dependency and integration of both on each other. This paper attempts to give an insight on how to integrate teaching with teachers learning for effective delivery of information and knowledge. The key focus of this paper is to find out the ways in which teachers can embrace their learning with the help of various tools of technology. And also how teachers can use technology to reach out to their students in most impressive style. To enable teachers to shift from their habitual approach to contemporary approach, Here the onus is on teachers’ to educate and impart knowledge in the most effective and efficient way. But this is only possible if their own education is able to strengthen their own knowledge. This paper describes the innovative approach adopted for the professional development of teachers. It focuses on integrating technology skills based on authentic learning situations. Through this paper an attempt is made to find out how Technology can play important role in both teachers education and teaching methods .how technology can be made interesting to use for learning over conventional methods. As a teacher the process of learning other than teaching become more imperative. It is cyclic in nature i.e. from learning to gaining to delivering to learning back. Where the exchange of knowledge will result in knowing something new not only for the students but for the teachers as well. This paper contains dynamics of teachers’ education integrating with technology both in their own learning and way of imparting it to students.

ICT-Pedagogy Integration in Teacher Training: Application Cases Worldwide2005 •
As various learning technologies increasingly become available in schools, teachers are not using them for instructional purposes. Many studies have indicated that one of the reasons for which teachers do not use the tools is because they have not been effectively trained. The purpose of this study was to experiment the use of the MASLEPT school-based professional development model in updating primary school teachers' knowledge of technology, pedagogy and content (TPACK). The study employed a single group pre-training and post-training quasi-experimental design methodology in the collection of quantitative data from 52 teacher-participants from four separate schools located in the same campus. The data were meant to evaluate their TPACK after 10 weeks of professional development programme. The results indicated teacher-participants who took part in the experiment demonstrate a significant improvement in their TPACK. To test whether improvement had any statistical significant difference, the mean of the pre-training and post-training results were compared using the t-test. The findings indicated that p = 0.005 < 0.05. It was therefore concluded that there was a statistically significant difference between the scores. Therefore teacher-participants' TAPCK improved as a result of their participation in the professional development programme. This finding was further triangulated by comparing the scores of the lesson notes produced by the teacher-participants with the post-training scores. It was found that the scores of each construct of the lesson notes were better than the post-training scores. This led to the recommendation that the MASLEPT school-based model be adopted for teacher professional development on technology integration in instructional processes.
