Abstract
In Singapore, IT has been used in preschools for many years (Cheung and Hu, 2002, Cheung, Hew and Chua, in-press). We do not have a clear guideline for training organizations to design and develop an IT course for preschool teachers. As a result, preschool teachers have varying standards to integrate IT in the curriculum. We believe there is a need to explore what IT skills and knowledge preschool teachers should have to integrate IT into the curriculum in the context of Singapore’s preschools.
