Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge: Looking Forward
Abstract: Research on Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) has thrived in recent years. Scholarship has examined how teachers develop and apply their knowledge base in diverse settings (e.g., K-12, post-secondary, and informal learning environments) and across content areas, and recent research has led to a proliferation of means of understanding how teachers’ knowledge develops. Building on the work of contributors to the 2nd edition of the TPACK Handbook, this symposium session looks forward on topics such as teacher professional development and learning, options for measures, and the impact of diverse settings. Specifically, this session focuses on advances in research on the TPACK framework, new directions for research approaches and measures, and nascent strategies for developing teachers’ TPACK.
