I want to offer another book that I have raised a loan from the library. http://www.amazon.com/Considerations-Technology-Teachers-Best-JRTE/dp/1564842738/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1362518933&sr=8-1&keywords=Considerations+on+technology+and+teachers+%3A+the+best+of+JRTE

A flipped PD design. Some of us may want to try it. :)

This is a TPACK project example from Singapore.

TPACK in science domain

Reagrding the differences between traditional and digital technologies: --Virtually all the traditional technologies share three characteristics: specificity, stability, and transparency (see  Figure 3). traditional classroom technologies have specific uses, are relatively stable over time, and are transparent or easy to understand.  The truth of Koehler & Mishra's (2009) statement that ―digital technologies-such as  computers, handheld devices, and software applications-by contrast, are protean (usable  in many different ways . . .); unstable (rapidly changing); and opaque (the inner workings  are hidden from users)‖ is demonstrated daily in preservice and inservice teacher  development programs where teachers struggle to understand how to use a range of digital technologies and why they should

In this infographic, six strategies to develop mobile learning courses is given. In the chapter "mobile Learning" Sharples and et. all (2009) gives these strategies as designing mobile learning and evaluating mobile learning.

There are many data collection tools regarding TPACK, but they measure components of TPACK (PK, CK, TK, TPK, TCK, PCK, TPCK) separately. In this study, a reliable and valid scale was developed to measure TPCK component, which is the intersection point of three main components.It was found that TPCK component consists of four constructs/dimensions. They are design, exertion, proficiency and ethics.

We were just notified that our project is going to be supported by TUBITAK. The project aims to develop science and technology teachers' TPACK through various activities. Please invite your friends who are science and technology teachers to apply for this workshop which will be held in Aksaray this summer.

Hi everyone, I've shared an article on the development and refinement of a TPACK-fostering ICT instructional process. The results suggest that teachers' TPACK could be enhanced through the use of multiple types of instructional strategies. Nevertheless, some strategies are better targeted at TPACK development than others

MoLeNET was a unique collaborative approach to introducing and supporting mobile learning in education and training via supported shared cost mobile learning projects. Collaborative approach is related to my interest. It provided technical and pedagogic advice and support, materials development, continuing professional development, mentoring, facilitation of peer-to-peer support, networking and resource sharing, research and evaluation.

Recently IGI Global caught up with editor and contributing author Margaret Niess, who recently attended the American Educational Research Association (AERA) 2013 Annual Meeting April 27th-May 1st in San Francisco, California. U.S.

To me, the most interesting thing in this infographic is that distance learning is not recent at all, and it actually dates as back as 1700s through correspondence. As you walk through the history of online learning on the left column, the right column will inform you about some other fun facts that happened at the very same year.

Dear friends, I liked this infographic because it is followable to see the development of online learning, year by year

I think a striking point in this infographic seems to be that the developments in the last decade seems to be quicker and more extensive than ever. There are only 12-year distance (2002-2014) between when OpenCourseWare started and 98 % of the universities started online programs. It is also seen that online courses are regarded as highly as face-to-face courses for most people of business and academy which might put the existence of today's pyhsical schools into risk. When we consider that online courses and learning tools are not that common in Turkey, it seems we are left behind that new distant learning paradigm in the world.
