Abstract:

“This case study analyzed the TPACK development and a learning trajectory of a single pre-service special education elementary school teacher during TPACK-based graduate pedagogy course and TPACK transfer from this course to the teaching during induction year. The case study was guided by the following research questions: 1) What instructional strategies and experiences in the graduate pedagogy course supported TPACK development of this pre-service teacher? and 2) What are the internal and external factors affecting TPACK transfer for this teacher? The study showed that TPACK level of the participant increased to exploring level of TPACK throughout the graduate course, but regressed to Adapting level during first year of teaching showing partial transfer of TPACK. The study described course experiences and instructional strategies that supported preservice teacher’s TPACK development in the graduate course and identified some external and internal factors that could have affect the transfer of TPACK from college classroom to teaching.”
