        abstract = {The digital transformation of education has significantly altered teaching learning processes, particularly within teacher education programmes. In the contemporary educational landscape, prospective teachers are expected to possess not only content knowledge and pedagogical competence but also the ability to integrate digital technologies meaningfully into classroom practices. This integration is conceptualized as techno-pedagogical orientation. Alongside this, the emergence of digigogy digital pedagogy has emphasized the need for teachers to develop specific skills related to technology-supported teaching, learning, and assessment. The present paper conceptually examines the relationship between techno-pedagogical orientation and digigogy skills among prospective teachers. Drawing upon theoretical perspectives and existing research literature, the study proposes a conceptual framework explaining how techno-pedagogical orientation may influence the development of digigogy skills. The paper further identifies key research gaps and suggests directions for future empirical investigations. The study offers important implications for teacher education curriculum design, professional development, and policy formulation aimed at strengthening digital competencies among future teachers.},
