Technology, Pedagogy, and Content Knowledge (TPACK)
- Each of the three are equally important in making connections to instructional objectives in school.
- Considered the "total package" of elements that are addressed in effective technology integration.
- Melissa Pierson: "A teacher who effectively integrates technology would be able to draw on extensive content knowledge and pedagogical knowledge, in combination with technological knowledge. The intersection of th three knowledge areas could be defined as effective technology integration."
LINKING TECHNOLOGY WITH PEDAGOGICAL GOALS IN DIFFERENT CONTENT AREAS:
Discipline Content Technology Pedagogical Goals
Science Physics Digital Video Modifying Naive Conceptions
Social Studies History Digital Video Supporting Historical Inquiry
Lang. Arts Reading Digital Video Reinforcing Visual Imagery
Math Trig Digital Video Connecting Representations
"Digital Technologies make it possible to select and refine tools to address pedagogical needs in each discipline."
Moving the Framework Forward
- Assistance to teachers can be provided in which reflecting, planning, and enacting instructional strategies based on the TPACK intersection.
- The TPACK framework is a reminder that effective integration requires a deep understanding of content knowledge, and thoughtful exploration of ways in which ew capabilities of emerging technologies may intersect.
