This paper reports the results of an analysis of conducting trial lessons aimed at enhancing recognition of teaching skills using information and communication technology (ICT) in a teacher training course of science teaching methodology in elementary school. In study 1, we compared two types of trial lessons conducted by pre-service teachers: 1) the pre-service teachers conducted a trial lesson in which only the teacher used ICT for learning in the class, 2) the pre-service teachers conducted a trial lesson in which both the teacher and the students used ICT for learning in class. We found that in the case of 2) above, pre-service teachers were able to recognize that they could teach children to use ICT. In study 2, we compared their recognition of teaching skills using ICT trial lessons (Study 1) and their recognition after teaching practice in elementary school. The findings indicated that their recognition of three items pertaining to their recognition to use ICT in class increased after the teaching practice. We found that the students who experienced teaching using ICT at elementary school as teaching practice highly recognized the need for trial lessons using ICT and the usefulness of attending trial lessons using ICT.
