The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between school-based agricultural education (SBAE) teacher Technological Content Knowledge, Pedagogical Content Knowledge, and Technological Pedagogical Knowledge and teachers' technology integration self-efficacy through the use of TPACK and the Intrapersonal Technology Integration Scale…

Although teachers agree that technology is beneficial for enhancing math education and pedagogy, there are concerns about incorporating technology into their teaching practices. The problem addressed in this study was that high school teachers are challenged to integrate technology into math instruction. The purpose of this basic qualitative study…

Teachers' beliefs about language and technology, pedagogy, and ability to integrate them can be challenging within the second language classroom. This study was a conceptual replication of previous work in the field of TPACK with world language teachers. This mixed-methods study included 59 current in-service world language teachers grades 9-12 in…

Teachers' knowledge about technology and teaching with technology is decisive for how affordances of technology integration are taken up. Two questionnaires were administered in 21 high schools in Kazakhstan: one about types of teacher knowledge based on technological pedagogical content knowledge framework and one about affordances of technology…

High school science teachers are a unique subset of teachers with distinctive PD needs in content, pedagogy, and technology, yet there is scant research about PD from the perspective of secondary science teachers. This qualitative research study used narrative research methods with grounded theory to explore how a group of seven high school…

The purpose of this comparative, bounded, and embedded case study (Creswell & Poth, 2018) is to understand the development and implementation of district administered preparation opportunities which support technology integration in secondary social studies classrooms at Hiawatha Middle and High School, a high achieving suburban school…

While traditional graphing calculators have become commonplace in high school mathematics classrooms, newer and more powerful connected graphing packages (CGP) are less pervasive.

During the 2013-2014 school year, schools in the United States purchased over 23 million personal technology devices, such as iPads, to use for educational purposes (Herold, 2016). Research demonstrates that technology can be implemented without a sound curricular and pedagogical basis (Koehler & Mishra, 2009). Deploying the iPad as an…

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in biology education offers transformative potential, yet teacher preparedness for AI remains under-researched. This study explores the perceived benefits of AI integration and self-reported Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) among pre-service biology teachers from a South African…

E-learning has gained popularity as a method of delivering education recently and offers many advantages to enhance the learning experience for students. Technology allows teachers to design more interactive and engaging lessons that cater to different learning styles. It can also provide opportunities for teachers to incorporate virtual…

One way to help teachers use technology effectively is through professional development (PD). However, understanding of how exposure to PD relates to teachers' personal characteristics is limited. The purpose of this research was to investigate the relationships among PD exposure, teachers' abilities and values, and teachers' quality of technology…
