TPACK is an essential knowledge framework developed to help teachers successfully use technology in the classroom. It illustrates a balance between three major knowledges in education: i) Pedagogical knowledge, II) Technological knowledge, and III) Content knowledge. These three spheres of knowledge have dynamic relationships that intersect and interact with each other.
It is your powersource for successfully integrating tech into your classroom
Pedagogical Knowledge: Knowledge of Pedagogy. A deep and meaningful understanding of the teaching and learning processes, and the holistic responsibilities these have in the role of an educator.
Technological Knowledge: A thorough understanding and ability to use the technology being incorporated into the classroom.
Content Knowledge: A strong knowledge of the subject being taught- the theory behind the facts, the concepts being taught.
TPACK aims to keep teaching in the sweet spot, where these three spheres of knowledge intersect. It is a balance between the learning content, the ability to transmit that knowledge of the learning content through the effective use of technology.
