MODULE 9 – TPACK – Technology, Pedagogy, and Content Knowledge

I think the TPACK framework can be extremely useful for me in the classroom. It makes me reflect to what I was talking about in Module 1 in regards to structural integrity. I admire this framework from a structural integrity stand point as it is grouping these fundamentals which are essential for learning together, where they can work in harmony in order to create a sound process of learning.

I think, well I would like to sit right were all elements overlap and intersect because that is ‘where true intelligent integration of technology happens’.

I would say the content and technology elements would be my strongest, the ‘how’ which is pedagogy I think would more challenging. As Punya mentioned in the video technology changed everything, it changed the ‘how’ and that ‘what’, pedagogy and content (Microsoft Technology Enriched Instruction (TEI), 2014). I feel the way technology as changed pedagogy can be an obstacle for even teachers who are experienced.
