Abstract

To date, ICT (information and Communication Technologies) integration have led to significant changes that transform many aspects of education world. The main objective of the research was to analyze the ICT skills for future professional performance of biology education students at Faculty of Teacher Training and Education of Universitas Cenderawasih. This research was a non-experimental and descriptive quantitative methodology, with an assistance of electronic survey to collect data. The 43-items questionnaire was completed by 75 students and concludes that students showed from medium to high average for all areas of ICT competences (technological literacy; the search and treatment of the information, critical thinking, problem solving and decision making; communication and collaboration; digital citizenship; creativity and innovation), and obviously need to be improved in some items formatively.
