  JOURNAL NAME: Creative Education, Vol.3 No.7, November 21, 2012

  ABSTRACT: This study focuses on exploring whether pre-service kindergarten teachers can be trained to be designers of digital courseware through learning a series of technology training courses in a limited period of time during their teacher training program. The results show that preschool pre-service teachers can become courseware designers and have the capacity to integrate and produce multimedia courseware in their classroom teaching. This study also demonstrates an adequate training course and pattern for training teachers to be courseware producers, which can be referenced by other teacher training institutions.
