What is TPACK? T = technological P = pedagogical A = and C = content K = knowledge Definition: A conceptual framework for the knowledge teachers need to effectively instruct with technology. (Brad Flickinger, 2012-Flickr)
TPACK explained It is the intersection of three educational components. 1.Technology 2.Pedagogy 3.Content
History Mishra and Koehler added TK component in (Chai et al., 2011) Shulman’s 1986 theory included CK, PK, and PCK. (Kereliuk et al., 2011) (Willcarr.edublogs.org, 2012)
Mishra and Koehler’s 2008 TPACK model added: 3 circles of knowledge Dotted line of context encircling the 3 circles (Cox & Graham, 2009) Mkoehler.educ.msu.edu (Mkoehler.educ.msu.edu, 2011)
