1. An Assessment Framework for Technology Integrated Instruction. Introduction.. The Essence of Information Technology Integrated Instruction.. Assessing the kernel part Assessing the periphery part Conclusion..

2. Conclusion Integrating computer and technology into teaching of various subjects is the ultimate goal of the Ministry of Education. The framework can be used to carry out practical evaluation and serve as reference for future development. Teachers will gradually apply IT to teaching.

3. Kernel Part – the whole teaching process   PerspectiveEmphasis Information Technology Use and Role in instruction Curricula Subject-based separate or student-based integrated Learning materials Sequential of problem-based Learning strategies Traditional expository approach or Constructive approach Learning activities Teacher-driven or student- centered Evaluation Traditional paper-and-pencil testing or multiple assessment Table 1. Emphases of the kernel part to be assessed

4. Use and Role of IT in instruction   Level 0  Nil Level 1  Isolation Level 2  Supplement Level 3  Support Level 4  Integration

5. Periphery Part. Teachers Students Information specialists Administrators Classroom settings Computer laboratories Campus Instruction Network Internet Digital Matierials Instructional / Learning Software

6. Assessing the periphery part PerspectiveEmphasis Teachers Information literacy and professional competency Attitude toward information technology and instructional change Students Information literacy Attitude toward information technology Information Specialists Professional competency Support for teacher Administrators Attitude toward information technology integrated instruction Support for teacher

7. Assessing the periphery part Classroom Settings Number of computers and person- machine ratio Grades and fixtures of computer Operating system and application software. Peripherals (e.g. printer, scanner, digital camera) Broadcasting teaching facilities Management

8. Assessing the periphery part Computer Laboratories Number of computer labs, number of computers and person-machine ratio Grades and fixtures of computer Operating system and application software. Peripheral (e.g. printer, scanner, digital camera) Broadcasting teaching system Management

9. Assessing the periphery part Campus Instruction Network Structure of campus network and network type Domain account File server and database server CD cabinet (perhaps made possible through software simulation) Internet Method and speed of Internet connection Actual connection speed Internet server (e.g. web server, proxy server, DNS server, mail server) The mechanism to filter out inappropriate information.

10. Assessing the periphery part   Digital Materials Digital materials that can be used on the Internet Digital materials created by the teacher Instruction /Learning Software Quantity Adaptation

11. Introduction IT (Information Technology) has made a great impact on Education. Technology  Education Revolution The Relation between Computer, Information Technology and Technology.. 2001 academic, 9-year integrated curriculum will be implemented. Integrate technology into the teaching of various courses  apply technology and information The assessment Framework to understand the implementation and provide information for future reference.  

15. What is the role of “ IT ” in education? Technology is an indispensable tool in the teaching environment. It is integrated into the curriculum, teaching materials, teaching activities and learning. IT changes the traditional way of teaching: Curriculum: Subject-based  Student-based Activities: Teacher-driven  Student-centered IT is part of the daily activities taking place in the classroom ( Dias,1999).  
