ABSTRACT
This study has been undertaken with a view to find out the techno-pedagogical skills of secondary teacher
education students. Survey method was adopted for the study. Results reveal that there is significant
difference
between graduate and post-graduate secondary teacher education students in their skills in implementing
instructional strategy and guidance. Results also reveal that there is significant difference between
secondary
teacher education students who have attended computer course and who have not attended computer course in
their skill in learning, evaluation and techno-pedagogical skills. The ANOVA test results reveal that there
is
significant difference among different optional subject secondary teacher education students in their
techno-
pedagogical skills. Physical science optional secondary teacher education students are better than English,
Social science, Mathematics and Natural science optional secondary teacher education students in their skill
in
implementing instructional strategy. Thus, techno-pedagogical skills redefine established teaching-learning
styles and play a pivotal role in teacher trainees' acquisition of knowledge and competency.
