Abstract

The study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of ICT skills development instructional program on self regulation and computer achievement of trainee teachers. The 60 items computer achievement test was constructed and validated. The present study had experimental design, included an experimental group (n=51) and a control one (n=51), and used pre-test and post-test measures. Data suggest that the students enrolled in the training program, comparing with students in the control group, showed significant improvement in their receiving, assessing, formatting, evaluating, searching, triggering and implementing strategies. Statistically differences have been found in favour of the experimental group. These results strongly support the effectiveness of ICT skill development program in improving self regulation and computer achievement of the trainee teachers. They highlight the importance of relationships between trainee teachers' self regulation and potential use of technology in their future classrooms.
