This study assessed AI literacy among a group of preservice-teachers, and investigated the effectiveness of a suggested professional development program based on the Instructional Design Framework for AI literacy in developing pre-service teachers AI literacy skills. A quasi experimental approach with post-test pretest design was used for data…

This paper presents a cross validation study of four instruments commonly used to assess educator proficiency in technology integration. Data for the validation study were contributed by 357 teacher preparation candidates enrolled in university coursework in the Netherlands. Factor analysis, multidimensional scaling, reliability analyses and…

Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK) is a well-known framework in the field of educational technology. However, there is a dearth of studies that examine the impact of teachers' TPACK on the acceptance of Online Teacher Professional Development (OTPD). This study aimed to examine if TPACK affected secondary school mathematics…

This article explores preservice teachers' (PSTs), use of a translation app with dual language learners (DLLs). The TPACK (technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge) framework serves as the conceptual framework for the study in order to explore how PSTs integrated technology use with their current pedagogical and content knowledge. The…

The "Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge" (TPACK) conceptual framework captures the complex nature of teacher knowledge essential for effective teaching in the digital age. TPACK is difficult to assess, however, particularly among teacher candidates whose pedagogical knowledge is developing. This study aimed to examine…

This review of the literature analyzed twenty-eight survey instruments that were designed and validated by different researchers in order to measure teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge. The analysis was done to find out the nature and synthesis of survey items across domains of the technological pedagogical content knowledge…

This paper paints a complex portrait of the "wicked problem" of teaching technology integration in a field-based content literacy course in order to analyze how a teacher educator demonstrated a presence (and absence) of Teacher Educator Technology Competencies (TETCs). The study indicates that developing technology competencies in…

Most colleges of education employ a standalone technology integration course as a part of their teacher preparation programs. But in a 2016 higher education brief associated with the National Educational Technology Plan, the U.S. Department of Education suggested this approach is limiting for teacher candidates and charged teacher educators to…

Based on a study at two Swedish universities, this article aimed to identify teacher educators' use of digital tools and subsequent need for digital competence in higher education. Methodically, a digital survey was distributed via e-mail to 405 teacher educators representing two faculties at the two universities; in total, 105 teacher educators…

Proposed as an effective method for preservice teachers' technology integration development, the flipped approach may afford opportunities to model face-to-face and online instruction with technology, and it may allocate additional class time for learning by design. This study examined a course designed with the flipped model of instruction and…

In teacher education programs, modeling from both teacher education faculty and clinical educators in schools can support teacher candidates' adoption of new instructional practices. This study examined how modeling from both teacher education faculty and clinical educators influenced elementary education teacher candidates' development of…

This case study describes how leaders from three teacher education institutions utilized a technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge (TPACK) leadership diagnostic tool in the design, development, and implementation of technology rich initiatives. Participants were interviewed to find out how the diagnostic tool guided their decision…

In a 2-year longitudinal study, we examined the effectiveness of a new technology-infused approach for teaching technology integration (TI) skills to teacher candidates. In the new approach, we infused learning to teach with technology into program methods courses. We measured candidates' understanding of various Technological Pedagogical Content…

Preparing future teachers to integrate technology into their teaching in ways that support transformative student learning is a priority for teacher preparation programs in the United States. However, technology instruction often focuses on functional technology skills, leading to ineffective future technology integration. This study examined two…

In this quantitative study, correlational and multiple regression analyses were conducted to examine the technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) development of 299 preservice teachers in response to the technology preparation they received during their initial teacher licensure program. Survey data were analyzed to determine the…
