TPACK

Click on the image above to find out more about the TPACK model

​The TPACK model is a guide for incorporating technology into ones instruction in meaningful and innovative ways. Following this model is one way to ensure that you are creating learning experiences which develop the 21st century skills of your students.

The TPACK model is composed of 3 main components:

Technology: Understanding how to incorporate technology in ways that create learning experiences for students that otherwise would not be possible. Technology should not be a simple replacement but a vital component to learning.

Pedagogy: The knowledge of how to communicate and teach content. Lacking in pedagogy makes any instruction ineffective.

Content knowledge: Understanding of your content. Also, understanding what it looks like to have procedural and conceptual understanding of your content area.

The intersection of these 3 areas is where innovative and highly effective teaching takes place. This is the goal for any teacher who wants to provide instruction that creates 21st century learners. ​
