Abstract:
Technology plays a critical role in teaching, learning and assessment processes. This study is an attempt to review the studies, initiatives and provisions for effective integration of technology in preparation and professional development of school teachers in Indian context. The digital competency of the teachers is crucial in implementing technological integration in the teaching, learning and assessment processes. The achievement of learners with technological integration will depend largely on the teachers’ abilities, perceptions and their skills to embrace the technology. The new education policy also highlights the need for integration of technology at all levels of education facilitating teacher preparation. It also highlights improving teaching, learning and evaluation processes. Several studies reported that the teachers were not fully confident to use technology as they were not properly trained. They have knowledge of technical devices but most of them don’t know how to use them in practical situations. This may be attributed to limited knowledge and training regarding how to use technology in teaching, learning and assessment.
