Constant teacher training and up-dating is fundamental to provide quality teaching and learning. Digital competences are among the skills that teachers must acquire in order to improve the teaching and learning processes. The aim of the present study was to review the scientific production of the last five years regarding teacher digital…

"Research Findings": This study incorporates teacher vitality, efficacy, and engagement with lesson design practice in which teachers can particularly encounter challenges from technology integration that calls for design thinking. Using a structural equation modeling approach, this study explores the relationships among teachers' design…

A growing number of studies are focusing on the effect of teachers' knowledge on their behavioral intention to use technology in teaching. This study aims to explore the influence of teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) on their behavioral intention to use technology by including their technology self-efficacy and attitude…

This study aimed to investigate the differences between pre-service teachers' (PSTs) perceived TPACK given the different clusters of their epistemic beliefs collected via a questionnaire. The responses gathered from 807 Chinese PSTs were utilised to elicit such a relationship. All of the participants responded to the Pre-service Teachers'…

This study aims to investigate gender and regional differences in technological pedagogical readiness (TPR) among primary mathematics teachers in China during the post-pandemic era. Utilizing a web-based questionnaire, data were collected from 601 teachers across six provinces, representing eastern and western regions. The TPR scale, encompassing…

This quantitative study examined the dynamics of the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework within mathematics education, centring on the role of Contextual Knowledge (XK). The research, conducted with middle school mathematics teachers in Chongqing, China, employed structural equation modelling (SEM) to explore the…

As digital teaching aid, virtual simulation experiments integrate modern information technologies such as virtual reality, augmented reality, 3D modeling, digital interaction, network communication, and databases, breaking free from the limitations of time, space, personnel, and resources. By simulating experimental scenes and objects, students…

Despite increasing calls for integrating generative AI (GAI) into education, individual teachers still show disparate attitudes and actions. It is thereby pivotal to understand the reasons behind such divergent responses. However, factors affecting teachers' uptake of GAI in their instruction, particularly their endorsement of students' engagement…

This study investigates the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in primary mathematics education, focusing on the influence of internal and external factors on AI utilization. Employing second-order Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with data collected from 516 primary mathematics teachers in a southwest city in China, the research…

Teacher technology integration is an evolutionary process, and its relation with various personal and contextual variables may change over time. This study collected questionnaire responses from 429 Chinese K-12 teachers at two time points, and examined how the associations of technology-related beliefs, pedagogical practices and perceived…

The adoption of technology in second language (L2) classrooms has been found a complicated process depending on several factors, two of which may play a crucial role in teachers' technology adoption are emotional intelligence (EI) and self-efficacy beliefs. To date, however, there exists little empirical evidence regarding their interaction to…

Research Findings: This study aims to validate a scale highlighting the applicability of selected TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) domains of knowledge to early childhood education and to explore the internal relationships between TPACK's components in the Chinese context. A survey instrument was designed and administered to…

In the evolving landscape of primary mathematics education, this study investigates the impact of gender, age, teaching experience, educational background, and mathematics-specific education on the factors of integrating digital technology during the post-pandemic era in primary schools. Data from 554 primary mathematics teachers in China, were…

Technology integration refers to the process of innovation diffusion, from understanding technology knowledge to achieving a high level quality of technology usage. To address the gap in research regarding the critical factors that influence K-12 teachers' practice of technology integration at the initial stage of a massive government-led training…

There is an urgent need to address the critical demand for qualified Chinese language teachers against the background of China's seeking greater Sino--foreign cultural and educational cooperation. The literature on integrating technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) in language teaching has been increasing in the last few years.…
