TPACK (technological pedagogical content knowledge) has emerged as a clear and useful construct for researchers working to understand technology integration in learning and teaching. Whereas first generation TPACK work focused upon explaining and interpreting the construct, TPACK has now entered a second generation where the focus is upon using…

This monograph represents an effort to build upon and extend beyond the literature on school mathematics as discussed in "Mathematics and Science: Critical Filters for the Future." Three significant changes in the political and educational landscape since 1985 are discussed. The first change is the introduction of mathematics standards…
