In this research, the authors clarified how experiencing micro-teaching as a teacher affects 「the skills of ICT use in education」 in lectures involving subject teaching methods in a university. The authors adopt the concept of TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) to analyze 「the skills of ICT use in education」. Further, the authors used the data from two classes (93 students) of the method of home economics education for pre-service teachers in the faculty of education. The data of the research group who did the micro-teaching (33 students), and the control group who participated as students in the class (60 students) were compared. As a result, two issues were clarified: 1) the students in the research group received a higher score for the efficacy of TPK (Technological Pedagogical Knowledge) than the control group, and 2) the students in the research group tried to improve their lesson plans twice not just from the perspective of the ICT skills but also by improving the teaching method.
