Sažetak
This paper focuses on the opinions of MA students enrolled in German as a foreign language (GFL) teaching programmes with regard to their professional competence in the use of information and communication technology (ICT) in teaching and the presence of ICT-related topics in their study programme. For this purpose, two studies were conducted via online surveys: the first one in 2018 at four Croatian universities, and the second one in 2020 at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Zagreb. The aim of both studies was to examine the following hypotheses: whether students consider themselves insufficiently educated in the use of ICT in teaching and whether they would prefer more ICT-related content and courses included in their study programme. The results of the two studies were analysed separately and comparatively. Both studies showed that, although a large number of graduate students consider themselves sufficiently prepared to use ICT in their future work, they would like to see more intense implementation of ICT-related topics in their GFL teacher-education programmes. As a conclusion, the paper provides some suggestions for the improvement of GFL study programmes in the area of ICT. These suggestions are based on the results of this research.
