Abstract
Singapore Ministry of Education implemented the ICT Mentor Programme in
2010. This is a professional development programme for a selected group of in-service
teachers tasked to develop and cascade effective ICT practices in schools. A TPACK
survey was employed in this study to assess the effectiveness of the programme. The
results obtained through study of participants from an earlier phase point to possible need
for enhancement of the programme. The programme was redesigned. Participants who
attended the redesigned programme perceived to have experienced substantial growth in
Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK). This is an indication that the
redesigning of the programme has yielded its intended results.
