The document explains the seven components of TPACK, including technological pedagogical content knowledge, and provides an example activity of how to apply TPACK in an instructional setting by selecting a content topic, pedagogy, and technology.
This document discusses the TPACK framework, which analyzes the ideal combination of technological and pedagogical choices made by a teacher to effectively convey content. It can be visualized as a Venn diagram showing overlap between technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge. The goal is for teachers to develop equal interactions between these three domains over time. Examples are given of how the author used various technologies like Blendspace, SMART boards, and Edmodo to integrate technology and convey content knowledge in pedagogically sound ways in accordance with the TPACK model.
The document discusses measuring teachers' Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK) with a focus on adding measures of teachers' attitudes and skills. It describes a study in Kuwait that measured TPACK, attitudes, and skills in pre-service science teachers before and after participating in technology-integrated lesson design teams. The study found increases in various TPACK domains as well as attitudes and skills for teachers who received blended online and in-person support compared to only in-person support. It recommends continuing to measure TPACK along with related constructs like skills, competence, and attitudes toward technology in education.
Tpack as a framework for technology driven teaching anderwin marlon sario
The document discusses the TPACK framework for technology-driven teaching and learning. TPACK combines the teacher's technological knowledge, content knowledge, and pedagogical knowledge. This framework shows how these knowledge areas intersect and integrate technology to make teaching more engaging, relevant, and effective. The document also introduces the SMART model for infusing technology into teaching, which represents different levels of technology integration from substitution to redefinition.
Symposium on TPACK at SITE 2014
TPACK is recognized by many as a useful conceptual framework to help define the knowledge base teachers’ need to know to effectively integrate technology in their educational practice. However, determining whether teachers indeed have developed the knowledge and skills required for effective technology integration – or in short whether they have developed TPACK – is a much more complicated issue. This symposium discusses how artifacts are being used in assessing pre-service and practicing teachers technology integration competencies. TPACK calls for coherence between content, pedagogy and technology. The assumption is that having TPACK also implies teachers’ being able to demonstrate technology integration competencies. This assumption implies a fit between (pre-service) teachers’ TPACK (often measured through self-report instruments) and the artifacts they produce.
In this symposium we discuss how different kinds of artifacts, e.g. lesson plans and lesson practice as demonstrated in video clips can be used as an indicator of a teacher’s technology integration competencies. In this symposium we discuss different artifacts (pre-service) teachers produce in order to demonstrate that they have TPACK. In the symposium different artifacts will be discussed, such as lesson plans and video clips that show technology use in classroom practice. The symposium deals with the potential and restrictions of artifacts as indicator for technology integration, the assessment of artifacts and the relation with other TPACK measures, such as the TPACK survey from Schmidt et al. (2010). Examples from different educational contexts will be presented and discussed.
TPACK -skills of Classroom Teachers in CraftsMari Kyllönen
This document summarizes a study on Finnish classroom teachers' self-assessed skills in integrating technology into their pedagogical practices for crafts, as measured by the TPACK framework. The study used a survey of 97 teachers and interviews of 5 teachers. The survey found 6 factors of TPACK skills and differences between teacher groups. Interviews found that teachers use technology for ideas/planning but pedagogy dominates, and they desire more training. The study concludes the TPACK model can assess Finnish teachers' skills but more research is needed on training and students' experiences.
TPACK/TPCK - is it the model for designing learning in the digital age?Vanguard Visions
This document discusses frameworks for designing learning in the digital age. It introduces the TPACK/TPCK framework, which describes the intersections between technological, pedagogical and content knowledge. Other models discussed include SAMR, the Technology Integration Assessment Rubric, and the Arizona Technology Integration Matrix. The document asks how TPACK might look in different contexts and lists some digital learning design approaches along with possible supporting technologies. It promotes the idea that technology integration is more about challenging beliefs about pedagogy than just using technology. The next webinar is announced as focusing on ideas that disrupt and transform education.
The document discusses different types of knowledge that teachers need: content knowledge (CK), pedagogical knowledge (PK), pedagogical content knowledge (PCK), technological knowledge (TK), technological content knowledge (TCK), technological pedagogical knowledge (TPK), and TPACK which integrates all types of knowledge. It then provides examples and asks the reader to identify which type of knowledge each example demonstrates.
TPACK as a Framework for Technology Driven Teaching and LearningIra Sagu
The document discusses frameworks for integrating technology in teaching, including TPACK and SAMR models. It defines TPACK as the intersection of technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge that describes a 21st century teacher's capabilities. SAMR categorizes technology use from substitution to augmentation to modification to redefinition. The document also identifies learning theories and selecting appropriate technologies for instructional plans and assessments.
This document discusses the strategic integration of technology into instruction using the TPACK framework. TPACK stands for technological pedagogical content knowledge and refers to the interplay between a teacher's knowledge of technology, pedagogy and content. The document outlines the 7 components of TPACK, including content knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, technological knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge, technological content knowledge, technological pedagogical knowledge, and technological pedagogical content knowledge. It provides examples of each component and has teachers do activities to apply TPACK to choosing a technology to support a given content and pedagogical approach. The goal of TPACK is to understand how, when and why to use technology for effective
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.
The TPACK framework highlights the types of knowledge teachers need to effectively integrate technology in the classroom. It involves the complex interplay of technological knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, and content knowledge. Technological knowledge refers to knowledge about technology use, pedagogical knowledge is knowledge about teaching methods, and content knowledge is knowledge about subjects and skills. Effective technology integration requires understanding the relationships between these three knowledge domains.
This document reflects on a student's learning about the TPACK framework for effectively integrating technology, pedagogy, and content knowledge in teaching. Through their education course, the student has realized that while technology can help or hinder learning, it must be carefully balanced with pedagogical and content considerations. Examples are provided of both effective and ineffective uses of technology in the classroom, and the student's own TPACK diagram evaluates their developing knowledge across the three domains.
TPACK integration in teacher education: A case study in educational institut...Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The aim of this study was to explore the ways in which teacher education institutions prepare pre-service teachers for integrating ICT in their classroom practice. Specifically, a multiplecase study was conducted to examine the ways in which the development of TechnologicalPedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) was promoted in the existing curriculum of threeteacher education institutions in Flanders. In the three cases, data were drawn from semi-structured interviews with the heads of the department and the ICT coordinators. Focus groupdiscussions collected the perspectives of pre-service teachers and teacher educators. Theresults indicate that 1) the three institutions are moving from ICT as a “stand-alone” coursetowards embedding ICT across the curriculum and 2) three approaches were adopted for developing pre-service teachers’ TPACK, each representing different ways of understandingthe place of ICT in the curriculum. The discussion will focus on the challenges andopportunities inherent in understanding how to develop pre-service teachers’ TPACK in thecurriculum of teacher education institutions.
Meaningful use of ICT in education requires teachers to develop knowledge and skills that enables them to integrate ICT with a suitable pedagogical approach for teaching specific subject matter in a certain context. Koehler & Mishra (2008) introduced Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge as a conceptual framework to describe the knowledge base teachers need for effective teaching with technology. This symposium aims to present successful strategies to develop Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) as emerged from several studies in different countries around the world. Based on the studies, and a further in-depth analysis of the data we tried to further uncover the conceptual understanding and the empirical validation of the TPACK framework. Active collaboration of teachers seems to be an effective way to develop TPACK, but the question remains how TPACK as a conceptual framework can be understood.
The document discusses the TPACK framework for integrating technology into teaching. TPACK stands for technological pedagogical content knowledge and considers the intersections between technology, pedagogy/teaching methods, and content knowledge. It explains that effective technology integration requires understanding how technology can be used to teach specific content. The document provides descriptions of technology, pedagogy, and content knowledge and discusses using technology to support different activity types to build and express student understanding.
The document discusses Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK), a framework for teacher knowledge in the digital age. TPACK involves the complex integration of teachers' understanding of technology, pedagogy, and content knowledge. Effective teaching requires teachers to thoughtfully integrate technology into their pedagogy and representation of content. While technology training for teachers is important, simply knowing how to use technology is different than knowing how to teach with it. The framework emphasizes the need for teachers to develop knowledge at the intersection of these three components.
The TPACK framework requires understanding the negotiation between content, pedagogy, and technology. It includes seven knowledge areas: content knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, technology knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge, technology content knowledge, technology pedagogical knowledge, and TPACK, which builds on the core ideas of how teachers can creatively integrate technology within a contextual framework by understanding the complex relationships between students, content, parents, technology, and teachers.
This document discusses principles of e-learning design such as information presentation, visual design, and navigation. It emphasizes organizing information logically and in digestible chunks, using consistent interfaces, and establishing visual hierarchy, balance, and unity. Examples are provided of both good and bad design with annotations explaining the effective and ineffective aspects. The document concludes that considering these design principles can enhance the user experience and learning outcomes.
Visual Learning - Techniques to Improve LearningEric Langhorst

Tips are provided for visual learning study strategies such as using flashcards with images and diagrams, highlighting text in different colors, and asking teachers to diagram concepts.
This document discusses principles of visual literacy and design for educational purposes. It defines visual literacy as the ability to interpret and create visual messages. There are two routes to visual literacy: input strategies to decode visuals and output strategies to encode visuals. The document also discusses theories of how visuals support learning and memory, such as dual coding theory. It provides examples of different types of visuals that can be used in classrooms like diagrams, graphs and charts. Guidelines are given for effective visual design including selecting elements, establishing patterns, and arranging elements according to principles like alignment, balance and consistency.
Many researches show that visuals in eLearning courses help in enhancing the learning experience. However, indiscriminate use of visuals could mar the learning experience. If this fact is overlooked, we may end up having courses filled with too many bullets, irrelevant images, unnecessary decorative visuals which leaves learners detached and unenthusiastic about the course.

The document discusses several reasons for why learning English is important. It states that English is widely spoken around the world and used in business, travel, education, and various careers. Knowing English provides access to higher education, international sports, global business opportunities, and information from around the world. It also notes that English skills are essential for good career prospects in many fields like engineering, medicine, law, science, and aviation. The document encourages learning English through various methods like reading books and magazines, listening to music, watching movies, speaking with others, and practicing writing. It emphasizes that mastering English can improve one's life and career advancement opportunities.
Principles of Visual Communication explained in a simple manner. Was presented at a workshop organized by STC, used as reference material by some design schools.
This document provides an introduction to the collaborative e-book project titled "E-Learning Concepts and Techniques". The e-book was created by students in Bloomsburg University's spring 2006 online class on e-learning concepts and techniques. It includes 11 chapters that cover topics such as what is e-learning, instructional design models, e-learners, e-learning tools, instructional strategies, and more. The introduction provides background on the class project and acknowledges the authors and contributors to the e-book.
Visual communication is the conveyance of ideas and information through visual means like pictures, symbols, and gestures rather than words. It has a long history dating back to Charles Darwin's scientific study of nonverbal communication. Today, visual communication is widely used in advertising, promotions, and other applications to get attention and convey messages in a memorable, easy to understand way across language barriers. However, it also has disadvantages like being imprecise for complex ideas and not transmitting through phone lines or at a distance.
The document discusses visual communication, defining it as the communication of ideas through visual displays of information like images, art, signs, and typography. It provides a brief history of visual communication from cave paintings to modern web design. It also outlines the nodes, or elements, of visual communication including visual intelligence, graphic design, visualization, and professional visual fields. Finally, it presents a model of the visual communication process and discusses advantages like transcending language barriers, and disadvantages like allowing for multiple interpretations.
Visual communication is the process of sending and receiving messages through visual images. It is an important tool for effective communication that uses elements like color, font, pictures, and organization to convey ideas in a impactful way. Visual communication encompasses many fields like graphic design, advertising, and film where it is used to attract attention, engage emotions, and influence thinking through visual elements rather than just text.
E-learning can take many forms, including standalone courses, virtual classrooms, games/simulations, embedded content, blended learning, and mobile learning. When designing e-learning, instructional designers must make important decisions about learning goals, objectives, prerequisites, and sequencing. There are three options for sequencing - bottom-up which teaches prerequisites first, top-down which starts with the main objective, and sideways which allows learners to discover prerequisites as they learn. Design also requires selecting appropriate learning activities such as presentations, readings, explores, and activities for learners to connect with and apply the content. Careful planning of these design elements can ensure effective e-learning experiences.
This document discusses e-learning, including its nature, characteristics, modes, styles, advantages, and disadvantages. E-learning refers to learning facilitated by electronic media and online resources. It can take various forms, including supporting traditional classroom learning, blended learning models that combine online and in-person instruction, or fully online learning. E-learning provides benefits like flexible access, individualized instruction, and the ability to reach remote learners, but also faces challenges like upfront costs and a lack of in-person interaction. Educational institutions need to provide training and technical support to promote effective adoption of e-learning.
The document discusses eLearning in higher education and training. It provides examples of different forms of eLearning like learning management systems, Moodle, browser-based training, Open University, and distance learning. It also discusses the positives of eLearning in increasing access and student engagement, and the challenges of eLearning like student and instructor skills, technical issues, and managing student motivation in distance learning.
This document discusses the impact of the internet and e-learning on education. It notes that e-resources have provided easy access to books and journals for students. E-learning has grown due to the internet providing access to information. E-learning uses computer and web technology to bridge the gap between teachers and students. It allows for individualized, interactive, and learner-centered education. Monitoring and grading systems track student progress. The internet is transforming education and many universities may have less attraction by the end of the decade without adapting to e-learning.
The document discusses the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework. TPACK describes how teachers' understanding of technology, pedagogy, and content interact and overlap to effectively integrate technology into teaching. It suggests teachers need knowledge in technological content, technological pedagogical, content, and pedagogical content areas. The TPACK framework emphasizes the complex interplay between these components and allows teachers to thoughtfully integrate technology rather than view it as simply an add-on.
This symposium discusses strategies for developing teachers' TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) through professional development programs. Four contributions will be presented that use design-based approaches to prepare pre-service teachers in various countries to integrate technology. The first discusses a program in Kuwait using design teams, the second a US master's program, the third design teams for math teachers in Ghana, and the fourth the development of a TPACK assessment instrument. The goal is to identify characteristics of effective professional development for technology integration.
This document discusses the importance of effective professional development for teachers to successfully integrate technology into their classrooms. It notes that while teachers have access to technology, few use it appropriately. Effective professional development demonstrates why technology integration is important, teaches educators how to integrate it, and offers diverse training methods. It is important for professional development to assess teacher needs, set goals, and identify funding. When done poorly, professional development can negatively impact teacher attitudes towards technology integration.
Effective Professional Development for Successful Technology Integrationshughes
This document discusses the importance of effective professional development for teachers to successfully integrate technology into their classrooms. It notes that while teachers have access to technology, few use it appropriately. Effective professional development demonstrates why technology integration is important, teaches educators how to integrate it, and offers diverse training methods. It is important for professional development to assess teacher needs, set goals, and identify funding. When done poorly, professional development can negatively impact teacher attitudes towards technology integration. Overall, the document stresses that with proper training, teachers can maintain positive attitudes and effectively incorporate technology.
The document compares data from two previous studies: one on pre-service teachers' technology competence, confidence, and use during student teaching, and one on faculty perceptions of technology integration in their courses. While pre-service teachers received high grades in technology courses, their confidence in integrating technology was low. Student teaching portfolios also showed a lack of technology integration, despite self-reported planning. Faculty interviews revealed that while they saw value in technology, they did not consistently model integration or provide opportunities for students to practice it. This suggests a disconnect between faculty beliefs and actions that may explain students' lack of confidence and integration during student teaching.
The Texas Teacher STaR Chart is an assessment tool developed around four key areas of technology integration: teaching and learning, educator preparation and development, leadership/administration, and infrastructure. The chart helps teachers evaluate their current technology skills and integration in the classroom. It also identifies needs for professional development and helps teachers ensure they are meeting technology standards and improving students' learning with technology. The STaR Chart has four levels - Early Tech, Developing Tech, Advanced Tech, and Target Tech - which describe increasing levels of technology integration, use of technology for higher-order thinking, and access to technology resources.
This document describes a study that investigated the impact of a science methods course enhanced by the TPACK-IDDIRR model on developing pre-service science teachers' quality of technology integration. 57 pre-service teachers enrolled in the 12-week course, where they were taught science teaching methods and how to effectively integrate technology. Participants created lesson plans, which were evaluated before and after receiving feedback. Results showed that technology integration quality significantly improved across different teaching methods after the training, as measured by increased scores on a technology integration rubric. The study concluded that actively experiencing technology integration in different contexts through a TPACK-focused course is effective for developing pre-service teachers' TPACK abilities and designing technology-enhanced lessons.
The Capstone Program is an online professional development program through PBS TeacherLine and ISTE that certifies teachers' mastery of the ISTE National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers (NETS-T). The program empowers teachers to demonstrate skills in technology operations, planning technology-supported learning environments, implementing technology in the curriculum, using technology for assessment, enhancing productivity with technology, and understanding social and ethical issues related to educational technology.
Action Research Proposal Presentation - DRAFTMarc Stephens
This document provides an overview of a proposed action research project to improve teacher implementation of classroom technology at a suburban high school. The project will assess teachers' technology skills and practices, provide training using a constructivist model, and involve weekly technology-integrated lessons with support from a technology team. The goal is to determine how to better support teachers in using technology to enhance student learning.
The document discusses barriers to integrating information and communication technology (ICT) into teaching and learning environments based on a review of literature. The major barriers identified are lack of teacher confidence, competence, and access to resources for using ICT. Providing teachers with ICT resources like hardware, software, training, time, and technical support can help overcome these barriers and improve integration of ICT into classrooms. Understanding the barriers that inhibit teachers from using ICT and how to address them, such as improving access to resources and teacher skills, is important for effective integration of technology into education.

1) TPACK is a framework for teacher knowledge that focuses on the intersections between technological knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, and content knowledge.
2) A study examined the relationship between modeling technology use during teacher preparation and the development of pre-service teachers' TPACK. It found that greater modeling of technologies like digital materials and communication tools predicted higher TPACK.
3) TPACK can be used as a framework for teacher educator development to help integrate technology throughout teacher preparation programs in a way that connects it to pedagogy and content.
The document discusses the TPACK framework for integrating technology into classroom teaching. TPACK considers the interrelation between a teacher's technological knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, and content knowledge. It was used to create a commerce learning experience that incorporates relevant technologies like cloud-based organizers and educational blogs. The lesson plan demonstrates knowledge of how students learn and uses collaboration and differentiated instruction while promoting deep learning through a student-centered model.
This document proposes a framework to support teachers in designing ICT lessons for 21st century learning using technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) and design thinking. It argues that design thinking can help teachers address complex factors in lesson design and transform their various forms of TPACK knowledge. The framework depicts the iterative process of design thinking, which involves framing problems, developing ideas and materials, implementing lessons, and reflecting. It suggests teachers draw on different TPACK knowledge domains through guiding questions at each stage to support 21st century learning goals like cognitive, metacognitive, sociocultural, productivity and technological skills. The framework is intended to address limitations of existing ICT lesson design models and help teachers develop lessons engaging students in
U.S. Approaches to Teacher Education in ICTanneleftwich
This document summarizes research on how pre-service teachers in the United States are prepared to integrate technology into their teaching. It finds that while technology courses are common, there is little evidence of their effectiveness and a disconnect between what is taught and what teachers actually use. The document outlines a large study funded by the US Department of Education that will examine teacher education programs and in-service teachers' technology use to identify best practices for preparing teachers.
1. The document discusses the relevance of techno-pedagogic analysis in commerce education, which involves using technology to support pedagogic analysis or the logical breakdown of curriculum from a teacher's perspective.
2. Techno-pedagogic analysis is important in a learner-centered education system as it can make learning experiences more vivid and thorough while improving student learning and teacher effectiveness.
3. While techno-pedagogy has benefits like higher-order thinking, there are also challenges to technological integration like a lack of equipment, training focused only on basic skills, and unsupportive social and institutional contexts.
The document discusses the TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) framework, which describes the types of knowledge teachers need to effectively teach with technology. It introduces TPACK as an extension of Shulman's PCK (Pedagogical Content Knowledge) framework to include technology knowledge. The document then provides an overview of the TPACK framework and its components - technological knowledge, content knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, technological content knowledge, technological pedagogical knowledge, and pedagogical content knowledge. It discusses the interactions between these knowledge domains and challenges to implementing TPACK in teaching.
CCSD has invested $30 million in technology for classrooms but some teachers lack skills to integrate it effectively into instruction. A solution is teacher technology change management through professional development that aligns with their beliefs, provides examples of successes, supports risk-taking, and expands what constitutes good teaching to include technology integration. This will help teachers identify how technology supports learning goals and have students use tools appropriately.
