Abstract Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is very effective in promoting a strong educational system around the world. ICT integration is broad umbrella which covers so many tools and practices and is an essential requirement in the process of education. It is well known that education is a tripolar process where three poles are student, teacher and curriculum respectively. In this regard content, pedagogy and ICT integration plays very crucial role. "Effective integration of technology is achieved when students are able to select technology tools to help them obtain information in a timely manner, analyse and synthesize the information, and present it professionally. The technology should become an integral part of how the classroom functions -- as accessible as all other classroom tools." -- National Educational Technology Standards for Students, International Society for Technology in Education. The usage of ICT also creates pathways for teachers regarding differentiated instruction to meet the unique needs of students as individual learners within a broader classroom climate. ICT rich environments allows teachers to experience interactive classroom teaching and construct multiple perspectives. In this direction, teacher education is an important training program which helps the teachers to learn how to deal with the students and make them learn effectively. It is very important for teachers to know how, when and why ICT is integrated with content and pedagogy so that it will be more productive. So, this paper is an attempt to focus on different domains of ICT integration in teacher education.
