Abstract: 

“Shulman (1987) provided the language to describe how teachers develop their knowledge base with what he termed pedagogical reasoning.  He suggested that through the development of content knowledge, educational studies and the wisdom of practice, teachers develop their pedagogical content knowledge (PCK).  In revisiting PCK, Koehler and Mishra (2005) have added technology to propose TPACK as the ‘new’ teacher knowledge category. This chapter considers the significance of exploring the reasoning and actions associated with teaching with technology. Could this be termed technological pedagogical reasoning? This chapter will provide a basis for the importance of exploring this question.” (Prepublication version)
