Topics:
1. ICT Competency Standards for Philippine Pre-Service Teacher Education
2. Understanding the Basic Concepts in ICT
3. Roles of Technology for Teaching and Learning

Content Overview:
The ICT Competency Standards is made up of seven domains. Each domain has
a set of competencies. The competencies are expressed in desired learning outcomes.
Becoming proficient in the different competencies will enable you to handle learners of
the 21st century in your future classroom.

Understanding the basic terms and concepts of ICT will let you differentiate the
uses and functions of the technological tools. Sometimes we know how to navigate the
ICT tool but fail to familiarize its terminology.

You will value the integral contribution of ICT in teaching and learning the process.
The use of technology is inevitable especially that our country is facing the threat of
Covid-19.

Objectives:

At the end of this module, the students will be able to:

1. Identify the competency standards of ICT necessary in teaching for pre-service

teacher education.
2. Define conceptually or operationally terms that are basic to the understanding
of ICT.
3. Value the use of technology in teaching and learning process.

where the resource is located. The protocol identifier and the resource name are
separated by a colon and two forward slashes.

Roles of Technology for Teaching and Learning

According to Stosic, educational technology has three domains:

1. Technology as a Tutor
- The teacher will simply switch on or switch off radio programs, television
programs or play DVDs or CDs that contain educational programs.
- There are on-line tutorial educational programs.

2. Technology as a Teaching Tool

- Technology can be a teaching tool but it can never replace a teacher.
- Like any other tool, it is being used to facilitate and lighten the work of the
teacher.
- Technology provides enormous support to the teacher as the facilitator.
- Technology has modernized the teaching-learning environment.
- Technology improves teaching-learning process and ways of teaching.
- Technology opens new fields in educational researches.
- Technology adds to the competence of teachers and inculcates scientific
outlook.
