Technology integration in education has a great potential for learning, provided it is based on solid teacher knowledge and pedagogical reasoning. Teacher Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) is deeply connected with non-rational factors such as beliefs and attitudes -- "dispositions" --, together informing behaviours for…
