TPACK (Technoligical, Pedagogical, and Content Knowledge)

What is TPACK?


This video/enhanced podcast describes TPACK--a useful conceptual model for understanding the complex interplay of professional knowledge domains during a teacher's integration of technology with classroom practice.

Personal TPACK assessment
As people, we must consider knowledge and the acquisition of knowledge to be a never ending journey of discovery. In other words, our knowledge will never be complete but it will become more complete with experience and as we continue to grow.
As educators, TPACK offers us a framework for organizing our knowledge and a tool for assessing our knowledge and identifying areas of improvement.  Personally, my greatest area of growth is needed in technological, pedagogical knowledge (TPK). That is not to say that I have no need for growth in the other areas of the TPACK framework but my understanding of integrating technology and pedagogy is the least developed, simply because I am lacking in experience in this area.
