    Keith's video "TPACK in 3 minutes" did a lovely job of summing up the TPACK framework in a few words with great examples. The speaker makes it a point to explain "context" within the TPACK model and how it is implemented. He states that the model will look very different depending on the perspective (corporate vs. teacher) and grade level (elementary vs high school/college). I think one of the driving forces is the realization and understanding by many teachers that implementing useful technology - in the context of what their teaching- is necessary to accommodate the students' needs regardless of if the teacher is technology smart or not. However, this is where I think the resistant force sets in as well. Even though TPACK is a package where each of the 3 domains work together, I think that teachers find it overwhelming or very "sudden" and big of a change that it makes some of them feel uneasy to fully adopt it. This goes with what Stephen had stated in a previous post- that maybe the best way to approach this framework is to have teachers take baby steps.

    Thank you very much for sharing this link. The creator of this video does a very good job of explaining what TPACK is and demonstrating the dotted line for context was a nice addition to the TPACK model. A few other things I am taking from this video is that it shows the power of the internet. I think this teacher did this video in one take, which means he did not spend time editing or retaking what he was doing. I have a feeling this was created in about 15 minutes after setting up the camera, gathering materials and planning in his mind what he would say. This 15 minutes of effort has been watched over 5,000 times since its upload a little over one year ago. In this day and age, 5,000 views on Youtube might not seem like that much, but twenty years ago speaking to 5,000 people on a subject would almost be unimaginable. The power of online video is something I am taking from this course.

    Great video that explains the concepts of TPACK in a more simplistic manner. I think is does a great job of showing how not integrating such a model could harm our current/future learners- learners of the 21st century.

    This is a beautiful presentation, and I know it's purpose is not to teach you everything about TPACK, but you also don't want to dishearten learners or veteran teachers with overloading them with what they should be doing. If I told everyone right now that by next Friday you all should be playing golf and be good at it, most of you would look at me and say no way or I cannot. If I said I want to show you how to putt a golf ball one day, then the next day we are going to work on chipping a golf ball... I am slowly building the foundation of playing golf. For TPACK to work with teachers who are not tech savvy, you have to slowly build the foundation. Maybe designate one piece of technology, and for some it might be something as simple as a digital camera, and properly work that into a lesson. If you want all teachers to be successful using the TPACK model, baby steps might be needed for some, just like some of our students need baby steps and others hit the classroom running in full stride.

    The video "TPACK Framework" definitely portrays the most important message of TPACK which is successful implementation of TPACK is not an easy process; rather it is a process that will require creativity from teachers. I really like what Stephen stated with his golf analogy and I feel like the video is great for teachers who are new to the framework by explaining TPACK in a very simple format: you need to have knowledge of the content you are teaching, knowledge of how to effectively teach as well as creative ideas of how you will use technology to tie in the content effectively. Through this video, I can see how the subject being taught can be considered as a resistant force to the framework. It is absolutely possible to apply TPACK in every content area however I feel that it is easier or more obvious to apply it in science curriculum as oppose to language arts (I am in no way saying that it is impossible). In order to make TPACK successful introducing teachers to this framework and ensuring them that is okay if they run into a brick wall because this not a 1-2-3 fix and it will require creative solutions.

    Jamie Kasper, associate director of Arts Education collaborative, provides her own perspective or interpretation of the TPACK model.
  • Dipali Patel on 01 Jun 12
     
    Favorite line(s): o "TPACK gives us a model to think about the intersection between technology, content, and instruction" o "We can say the same thing about technology: while we can spend a limited amount of time learning the skills to use it, we eventually need to move beyond skills to think about technology's use in learning."
  • Stephen Demoratz on 01 Jun 12
     
    The pencil analogy she makes is fantastic. "Think about this: in the 1500s when the pencil was new, people generally did not study how to use the pencil." I agree. In 1997 when I decided to go into teaching, the tools of the classroom (overhead projector, chalk, copier) really did not need to be taught as part of the college courses. Now, mastery of the tools we have and the software and websites available is necessary to be a strong educator. I also hate to use these terms, but you are "adding to the plate" of teachers by making them learn more than we had to learn in the past. But technology also "takes things off the plate" by saving great amounts of time in the daily routine of a teacher. I used to spend hours with a calculator on grades each six weeks (yes, six weeks) figuring out grades. It also took much more time finding a parent's phone number, calling, leaving a message, waiting for the call back than simple email technology gives us today.

    Segments that particularly jumped out: - "there are three main components of teachers' knowledge: content, pedagogy, and technology. Equally important to the model are the interactions between and among these bodies of knowledge, represented as PCK, TCK (technological content knowledge), TPK (technological pedagogicalknowledge), and TPACK." -"Many approaches to teachers' professional development offer a one-size-fits-all approach to technology integration when, in fact, teachers operate in diverse contexts of teaching and learning." -"three key components of teacher knowledge: understanding of content, understanding of teaching, and understanding of technology. The complexity of technology integration comes from an appreciation of the rich connections of knowledge among these three components and the complex ways in which these are applied in multifaceted and dynamic classroom contexts."

    This video is long, but it breaks down all parts of TPACK and provides examples. This video stresses the importance of using the TPACK model to solve "wicked" problems. The presenter also discusses the importance of creativity in this process. There are many great examples provided in the video. My favorite example was about the third grade teacher who used technology to enhance students understanding of maps. The class took a trip to DC and used cameras and mapping software to record their journey. The main points of the video are: teaching with technology is a wicked problem, wicked problems require creative solutions, and that teachers are the designers of the Total PACKage, and that solutions need to be novel, effective, and whole,

    I have shared this with my technology integrated group, since we has cited TPACK as the basis for our school's program. This video does a beautiful job of conveying this information and I hope we use this to assist our staff as we struggle to implement technology uses for learning. I particularly like the acknowledgment of the difficult nature of this. The humorous nature of the presentation along with depth of scholarly foundation contained is excellent!

      Students in schools from all over the world can enter scientific data.  This is a great way to truly integrate technology with education - students can do "real science" and collaborate with their "colleagues" from other countries.  Great for biology, earth science, environmental science, etc.

    This website is a brief overview of the TPAC model. Basically TPAC is a framework that incorporates technology, pedagogy, and content knowledge. According to the website, "As teachers, we understand intuitively the layers of complexity that technology adds to our work with students but the TPCK (also TPACK) framework makes these layers of complexity explicit. It captures the kinds of knowledge required for the effective integration of technology in the classroom."

  • STEM education must be elevated as a national priority. Our nation’s future economic prosperity is closely linked with student success in the STEM fields .The U.S. must expand the capacity and diversity of the STEM workforce pipeline.Policymakers at every level must be informed about policy issues related to STEM education.Effective policies to promote STEM education should be bipartisan and evidence-based.
