Abstract

This study aimed at investigating the effect of using ASSURE Model by preservice teachers for lesson planning skills to integrate technology into teaching, and to assess their perceptions towads the use of ASSURE Model. Moreover, to examine the effect of independent variables on dependent variable (perceptions). A descriptive approach was implemented to answer the study questions. A sample of (89) undergraduate female student teachers registered in Media and Instructional Technology Course was chosen. The study lasted (6) successive weeks in College of Education – Kuwait University, during (2018/2019) academic year. Data was collected by a questionnaire.The results indicated that ASSURE Model significantly effective in acquiring preservice teachers with lesson planning skills. In addition, positive perceptions toward ASSURE Model were found. This study, disclosed that independent variables: majors (Literature /sciences) and Measurement & Evaluation Course had significant effects on acquiring preservice teachers with lesson planning skills effectively.  In the light of these findings a set of relevant recommendations was introduced. Hopefully, this study may contribute to the limited local literature of ASSURE Model and its effects in Kuwaiti context.
