The document discusses the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework for teacher knowledge. TPACK describes the complex interaction between three bodies of knowledge: content, pedagogy, and technology. Effective teaching with technology depends on flexible understanding in these three areas. The framework requires teachers to negotiate between content, pedagogy, and technology. There are seven knowledge areas within TPACK including: content knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, technology knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge, technological content knowledge, technological pedagogical knowledge, and TPACK.

2. The TPACK frame work for teacher knowledge
is described in detail, as complex.
• Content
• Pedagogy At the heart of good teaching with technology.
• Technology
Teaching with technology is complicated further considering the challenges
newer technologies present to teachers.
Most traditional technologies are characterized by specificity.
A pencil, a chalkboard, and pendulums have not changed over the times but
they are still consider technologies though they have become a common
place.
Some technologies seem to be more opaque to teachers and offer less
stability than more traditional technologies.

3. About technologies
• Complicating teaching with technology is an understanding that
technologies are neither neutral nor unbiased.
• Social and contextual factors also complicate the relationships
between teaching and technology.
• There is no best way to integrate technology into curriculum.
• Rather, integration efforts should be creatively designed or structured
for particular subject matter ideas in specific classroom context.

5. Content knowlege.
• Contents tend to be different at different stages of education.
• Knowledge content is important for teachers.
• Knowledge and the nature of inquiry differ greatly between fields,
and teachers should understand the deeper knowledge fundamentals
of the disciplines in which they teach.
