Corporate EdTech Certification Programs (CECPs) have the potential to disrupt the traditional ways professional development has been offered to teachers. With large companies creating CECPs to demonstrate the ways their products can be used for educational purposes, this study utilized a content analysis methodology to analyze which knowledge…

The authors explore the influence of instructional technologies on teachers' subject-matter knowledge as well as how this knowledge is mediated by context, experience, and beliefs about teaching, mathematics, and technology. This study examined how four pre-service middle grades mathematics teachers' (PSTs) beliefs about teaching, mathematics, and…

With the use of a variety of digital tools, services, and applications to enhance the learning environment, technology is now deeply interwoven within the educational process. Technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge (TPACK) model was used as a lens to evaluate GeoGebra's potential and limitations in the teaching and learning of Limits…

This study examined the effects of reflective practices (RP) on self-directed learning competencies (SDLC) as well as the relationship between technology-mediated collaborative learning (TMCL) as a reflective practice and SDLC in a preservice teachers' class. Regression analyses were conducted to examine the effects of RP on SDLC. In addition, a…

It is inevitable to use information technologies in education field as in every field. Public and private educational institutions have attempted to equip classes with these technologies. One of these technologies is smart boards. Smart boards are set up in the classrooms of public education institutions within the scope of the FATIH project and…

The purpose of the study is to introduce dynamic geometry software to prospective mathematics teachers and investigate their usage processes of technology on a geometric task. The participants of the study were three prospective mathematics teachers purposefully selected from 52 sophomores by their technological pedagogical content knowledge…

The present study examines experiences of mentor teachers and their teacher colleagues following three days of professional development training for early literacy instruction and a literacy software program (ABRA). Four Kenyan teacher-mentors were interviewed and 34 teachers were surveyed. Training included program specific and curriculum…

With the emergence of new instructional technologies, pre-service teachers are expected to develop Mathematical Technological Knowledge (MTK), which we define as teacher knowledge of technology developed as a result of exploring mathematics with technology. We examined 16 middle grades pre-service mathematics teachers' (PSMTs) MTK within a…

A rapid, exploratory review to establish a shared understanding of what constitutes good quality EdTech and implementation. The review: (1) examined existing frameworks and standards; and (2) identified the characteristics, quality components, essential conditions and evaluation criteria for the design and implementation of EdTech. The report…

Today, more than ever before, English-language educators recognize the importance of using digital resources to teach students in a variety of modalities. Current circumstances have caused schools, universities, institutes, and colleges all over the world to rethink the way they teach and learn. Teaching with technology has suddenly evolved from a…

This study aims at investigating the effects of Programming Education Planned with TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) Framework on middle school students' learning outputs within the ITS (Informational Technology and Software) course. Although TPACK is known as a teacher training program, this study demonstrates it can be used in…

The COVID-19 pandemic worldwide evidenced the need to revise and strengthen the current perspective of the role of technology in nontechnology- based classes. The current situation requires the revision of practices and basic knowledge of computer literacy and use. Traditionally, technology in the process of language learning has been considered…

This action research study primarily examined how educative curriculum materials (i.e., curriculum materials that include supports for teacher learning) can improve a teacher's knowledge base and ability to succeed in the classroom. The focus was on the impact of one type of educative curriculum material: PowerPoint presentations. Specifically,…

This study characterises the development of Specialised Content Knowledge (SCK) with dynamic geometry software (DGS) throughout a semester. The research employed a single-case study with the embedded units of three pre-service middle grades mathematics teachers. Qualitative data were collected, and factors affecting these three teachers' SCK…

The purpose of this paper is to present a multitechnology-enabled lesson used with secondary preservice mathematics teachers to develop their technological pedagogical statistical knowledge. This lesson engages preservice teachers in a statistics lesson aimed at developing their reasoning about the measurement units of data using TinkerPlots and…
