Abstract

The needs of the ICT competences in education become the consideration in infusing ICT to the process of teaching and learning. This study was conducted to design the ICT competences- integrated syllabuses of Practical Key Teaching Competences for English Language Education Study Program. The analysis of ICT competences used UNESCO ICT Competences Framework, European Profiling Grid and International Society for Technology in Education.

Eight existing syllabuses of Practical Key Teaching Competence were analyzed. They are the syllabuses of Lesson Course Planning, Teaching Practicum and Classroom Management from some Universities in Indonesia. The findings showed that most of the existing syllabuses were not completely ICT competences integrated. ICT competences appeared only in learning outcomes, course learning outcomes, indicator, materials, teaching method, media of learning and assessment but not in basic information, course description, policy, grading and reference. The dominant level of ICT competences applied in the existing syllabuses was Technology Literacy. Then, it was found eleven steps of procedure to design syllabuses of Practical Key Teaching Competence integrated ICT competences. The prototype syllabuses integrated ICT competences were designed. The entire components of the designed syllabus infused ICT competences except Time Allocation. The proposed syllabuses implemented types of integrated syllabus for Lesson Course Planning and Classroom Management.
