As digitalisation is becoming increasingly important in educational settings, teachers' key competencies -- in particular, their professional knowledge regarding the integration of information and communication technology (ICT) in the classroom -- warrant targeted development. Aside from their general pedagogical knowledge (GPK), teachers'…

Graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) play important roles in engineering education at the undergraduate level. Since there are lots of technological content knowledge (TCK) in engineering curriculums, the improvements of GTAs' teaching skills on TCK will help the teaching effectiveness of the curriculums. As the instructor's knowledge about…

The research aimed to explore teachers' use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the classroom. The context of the study was a master's programme in Education at a South African open distance learning institution. One of the modules focussed on technology integration in open distance learning, and 19 enrolled students participated in the study. The…

Instructional Design Knowledge (IDK) can inform technology integration decisions and Technology Pedagogy and Content Knowledge (TPACK) can help instructional design processes. As a means to understand how teachers may draw from their TPACK and IDK as they design instructions and develop technology-enhanced learning activities, we examined the…

Research on teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) has been burgeoning recently. Yet, little is known about how teachers integrate AI tools such as ChatGPT in language teaching. This preliminary qualitative study investigates the exploration and incorporation of ChatGPT in language teaching by graduate student instructors…

Technostress is a phenomenon in which rapid technological advancement affects teachers' psychological well-being. It is an emerging concern in English language education, which may be exacerbated by the advent of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools such as ChatGPT. This study explores the factors that influence technostress among…

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…

Preservice teachers (PSTs) often feel unprepared to utilize digital tools in meaningful ways that support learning in the elementary classroom. It is imperative that teacher preparation programs provide support in this area so that children can learn to use digital tools to communicate in the 21st century. Previous research suggests that the…

Wise technology integration is not simply a matter of selecting to use, but a matter of how to effectively use technology in context within the curriculum. Technology integration cognition should thus be thought of as pedagogical design thinking that involves critically examining the affordances of learning technologies and then strategically…

This article examines the consequences of routine mobile devices usage tendency in the TPACK-based classroom with the aim of improving academic performance. Findings from the primary data analysis with students and prospective graduates with teaching intention in future (n = 313) in China indicate that the regular usage tendency of mobile devices…

During the past two decades, technology-mediated task-based language teaching (TMTBLT) has received great attention among scholars and practitioners in the EFL context. However, exploring the perceptions of teachers and students enacting TMTBLT in EFL teaching from the dimensions of various tasks and English skills remains under-explored. To fill…

The TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) model is a technology integration framework that identifies three types of knowledge that educators need to bring together for successful edtech (educational technology) integration - technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge (a.k.a. TPACK). This model used by educators when they…

This paper reports an analysis of university lecturers and students' experience of the online mode of learning in the COVID-19 situation. It as qualitative research employed semi-structured interviews and observation of online classes to gather data. It reports on how online classes enabled university lecturers and students to manage online…

The aim of this study was to investigate how to develop prospective chemistry teachers' TPACK and thus qualify them for the effective use of educational technology in their future chemistry teaching. For this purpose, we developed and evaluated a university seminar for the professional development of preservice chemistry teachers. We implemented…

Career-change pre-service teachers appear to offer more to teaching due to the knowledge, experiences and mindset garnered from previous vocations. How these experiences contribute to this cohort's technology pedagogy is not well understood. This explanatory case study applied a social cognitive lens to investigate how incumbent technological…
