This is a virtual place for folks interested in learning to "operationalize TPACK" (Technology, Pedagogy, and Content Knowledge) via curriculum-based learning activity types ('ATs') to get up-to-date information, and (more importantly) participate in the vetting and refining of the activity types in each of the curriculum areas in which activity type development is happening. The curricula in which we are developing and refining learning activity type taxonomies appear on the left. Those that have taxonomies available for your perusal and feedback have links to other pages in this wiki.
