TPACK in science domain

A nice prezi related to TPACK in science education prepared by Jamie Smith.

This is the abstract of a research study . In this study they invited a research panel (six researchers) and an expert panel (54 science-related educators) to propose and validate the framework of TPACK-practical. They applied two rounds of anonymous communications and Delphi survey techniques; identified a total of eight dimensions of TPACK-practical and corresponding indicators and rated them as having high levels of importance. They found disciplinary differences between the different groups of experts. Their findings suggest that the structure and content of subject matter shapes not only the way they teach with technology but also the thinking logics they build longitudinally from their learning experiences

While I was doing research on TPACK, I saw that validity of TPACK-practical model was examined in Turkish context.In that study, it was revealed that the adapted form of the survey exhibited the same item-factor harmony and structure as the original form.

An example from the field of computer science, they used quantitative survey using a questionnaire with closed-ended questions to measure TPACK

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.
