Abstract:

“A brief narrative description of the journal article, document, or resource. This study describes the TPACK-Developing Instructional Model which prescribes an instructional process for developing pre-service teachers’ Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) during …instruction [for using] information and communication technology (ICT) tools. This model proposes three phases for developing teachers’ TPACK through ICT instruction. The phases are: fostering teachers’ acceptance and technical proficiency; pedagogical modeling; and pedagogical application. An ICT instructional intervention designed with this model as its framework and its effects on the TPACK development of 74 pre-service teachers were examined. Qualitative analyses of their course reflection comments found that they predominantly developed Technological Knowledge and Technological Pedagogical Knowledge. More emphasis on subject-focused pedagogical modeling, product critique, and peer sharing may better develop their Technological Content Knowledge and TPACK. Future developments of the TPACK-Developing Instructional model are discussed.”
