TPACK

TPACK is a theory of instruction developed to help teachers better instruct their students with the integration of technology. TPACK stresses that technology is to be thoughtfuly integrated as part of the whole instructional design and not to design instruction around technology. Using the pedagogical and content knowledge that educators already incorporate into their instructional design, TPACK suggests that technology can be purposefully added in order to better assist students in accessing content. 

The following video specifically explains what TPACK is and includes examples of how technology can be integrated into an instructional design.
