TPACK stands for Technological, Pedagogical, And Content Knowledge.

It is a framework in order to understand and describe the kinds of knowledge needed by a teacher
for effective pedagogical practice in a technology-enhanced learning environment.

Mishra and Koehler proposed that content knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, and technology
knowledge concurrently provides a framework for technology integration in the curriculum.

There are three main components of teachers’ knowledge: content, pedagogy, and technology.

Technological Knowledge is an understanding of how technology tools, resources and devices


fit into the process of teaching and learning.

It is more essential understanding and mastery of information technology for information


processing, communication, and problem solving than does the traditional definition of computer
literacy.

It is recognizing when information technology can assist or impede the achievement of a goal.
It is adapting continuously to changes in information technology.

Content Knowledge (CK) – This describes teachers’ own knowledge of the subject matter. CK
may include knowledge of concepts, theories, evidence, and organizational frameworks within a
particular subject matter; it may also include the field’s best practices and established approaches
to communicating this information to students. CK will also differ according to discipline and
grade level – for example, middle-school science and history classes require less detail and scope
than undergraduate or graduate courses, so their various instructors’ CK may differ, or the CK
that each class imparts to its students will differ.

Pedagogical Knowledge (PK) – This describes teachers’ knowledge of the practices, processes,
and methods regarding teaching and learning. As a generic form of knowledge, PK encompasses
the purposes, values, and aims of education, and may apply to more specific areas including the
understanding of student learning styles, classroom management skills, lesson planning, and
assessments.

assessments.

Technological Content Knowledge (TCK) – This describes teachers’ understanding of how


technology and content can both influence and push against each other. TCK involves
understanding how the subject matter can be communicated via different edtech offerings, and
considering which specific edtech tools might be best suited for specific subject matters or
classrooms.

Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) – This describes teachers’ knowledge regarding


foundational areas of teaching and learning, including curricula development, student
assessment, and reporting results. PCK focuses on promoting learning and on tracing the links
among pedagogy and its supportive practices (curriculum, assessment, etc.), and much like CK,
will also differ according to grade level and subject matter. In all cases, though, PCK seeks to
improve teaching practices by creating stronger connections between the content and the
pedagogy used to communicate it.

Technological Pedagogical Knowledge (TPK) – This describes teachers’ understanding of how


particular technologies can change both the teaching and learning experiences by introducing
new pedagogical affordances and constraints. Another aspect of TPK concerns understanding
how such tools can be deployed alongside pedagogy in ways that are appropriate to the discipline
and the development of the lesson at hand.
TPACK is the end result of these various combinations and interests, drawing from them – and
from the three larger underlying areas of content, pedagogy, and technology – in order to create
an effective basis for teaching using educational technology.
