Abstract
It is becoming a new trend in developing countries to integrate ICT effectively in
the teaching-learning process inside or outside the classroom to boost teachers’
professional knowledge (TPK). The present study addresses the technology
integration relationship with TPK according to the International Society for
Technology in Education (ISTE-2008) Standards for Teachers in private secondary
schools of Karachi. TPK was categorized as 2 standards of ISTE-2008 i.e. enhance
creativity in students and design digital-age assessment. 120 teachers from 12
private secondary schools of Karachi were selected based on a simple random
sampling technique. For the collection of data, a teacher survey questionnaire was
used that was designed to gain information on their level of ICT integration and
their professional knowledge according to the ISTE-2008 Standards. Data was
collected through questionnaire distribution and analyzed through SPSS. Based on
ANOVA results, the overall model was significant because the F value was greater
than 2 and the significant value was less than 0.05. A strong significant correlation was found between ICT integration and TPK. Strong and moderate significant
correlation of ICT integration with teachers’ ability to enhance creativity and
design digital-age assessment was found respectively. ICT integration explained
32% of the variance in teachers’ professional knowledge. The integration of ICT
with ISTE-standards is highly recommended for the teachers.
