This paper aims to assess students' recognition of attained targets of practical seminars for the teaching profession through a curriculum design that uses ICT. In Study 1, we promoted a practical seminar for the teaching profession in 2013 focused on reflection about the contents of visiting lecturers using an e-portfolio for teaching the students, and they did peer assessment of the movies with the system for enhancing student reflection using videos of classes (MORIMOTO and KITAZAWA 2014) using movies of classes made by classroom teachers. However, from the results of the curriculum design, their teaching skills about subjects and methods and techniques of instructional skills did not increase. In Study 2, we changed the curriculum design of the practical seminar for the teaching profession in 2013 to the seminar of 2014. The changes were that the students made the class movies focused on materials and methods and techniques of instructional skills and then did peer assessment of the movies with the system for enhancing student reflection using videos of the classes. From the results, we found that their recognition of teaching skills about subjects and methods and techniques of instructional skills increased.
