2. TPACK
T = Technological knowledge / technology content knowledge
=knowledge about using technology
P = Pedagogical knowledge /
pedagogical content knowledge =
knowledge about the science, theory and art of teaching
And
C = Content Knowledge = core subjects, skills and strategies
K = Knowledge
3. WHAT IS
TPACK?
It highlights the kinds of
knowledge required by
teachers for the effective
integration of technology in
the classroom.
the complex interplay of
three primary forms of
knowledge: Content
4. CONTENT KNOWLEDGE
TECHNOLOGICAL KNOWLEDGE
Content knowledge
(CK) is teachers’
knowledge about the
subject matter to be
learned or taught.
Knowledge of content
is extremely important
this knowledge would
include knowledge of
concepts, theories,
ideas, organizational
frameworks, knowledge
of evidence and proof,
as well as established
practices and
approaches toward
developing such
PEDAGOGICAL KNOWLEDGE
Pedagogical
knowledge (PK) is
teachers’ deep
knowledge about the
processes and
practices or methods of
teaching and learning.
This form of
knowledge applies to
understanding how
students learn, general
classroom
management skills,
lesson planning, and
student assessment.
Technology
knowledge (TK) is
always expanding and
changing.
It is very hard to have
a definition for
technological
knowledge because
Any definition of
technology
knowledge is in
danger of becoming
outdated by the time

“Having good content knowledge, using
effective teaching strategies, and knowing
what and how to integrate technology
would increase students’ motivation and
behaviour to create a learning
environment that encourages positive
social interaction, active engagement in
learning, and self-motivation in learning.” MFA
10. CONCLUSI
ON
Tpack is a framework for teacher knowledge
for technology integration.
Teachers must realize that classroom
instruction is the most effective when teaching
and technology go hand in hand.
TPACK develops over time, with important
experiences where the teachers are challenged
to focus on pedagogy, content and the
technology happening at the same time rather
than separately.
