A Mixed-Methods Study of Novice Teachers' Technology Integration: Do They Leverage Their TPACK Knowledge Once Entering the Profession?
Karchmer-Klein, Rachel; Konishi, Haruka
Journal of Research on Technology in Education, v55 n3 p490-506 2023
Research indicates educators benefit from developing Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK), a combination of constructs that inform the design of pedagogically-sound technology-integrated instruction. Applying a mixed-methods explanatory sequential study design, we examined if and how novice K-12 teachers, who developed TPACK during the same teacher education program, transferred that knowledge to their full-time teaching upon graduation. A total of 50 participants completed a survey that explored their perspectives of technology integration. Interviews were conducted with 20 participants to further examine the survey results. Three significant findings were identified: (1) participants perceived technology integration as important to their teaching; (2) a disconnect existed between teachers' perceived importance of technology-integrated activities and actual integration; and (3) persistent barriers continued to challenge teachers' integration of technology.
