This paper presents a cross validation study of four instruments commonly used to assess educator proficiency in technology integration. Data for the validation study were contributed by 357 teacher preparation candidates enrolled in university coursework in the Netherlands. Factor analysis, multidimensional scaling, reliability analyses and…

"Digital native," the term ubiquitously used to describe contemporary learners, is fraught with debate over its meaning and measurement. The Digital Natives Assessment Scale (DNAS) was developed and validated to measure digital nativeness. This study extends the DNAS validation discussion with data from 178 participants in three teacher…

This research aimed to investigate the structural relationships among teachers' computational thinking (CT), design thinking (DT), robotics teaching beliefs, and robotics pedagogical content knowledge (RPCK). A total of 98 in-service and pre-service teachers who participated in a robotics teaching professional development workshop served as the…

Teachers' digital teaching competence is a prerequisite for efficient teaching. This study aimed to develop a scale to assess primary and secondary teachers' digital teaching competence (PSTDTC). We analyzed and generalized definitions, models, and frameworks for PSTDTC, proposed a five-dimension model (digital teaching design competence, digital…

The Teacher Educator Technology Competencies (TETCs) were created as a set of technology competencies specifically for teacher educators who prepare future teachers to teach with technology. A survey was developed based on the competencies and administered to 223 participants who reported they were teacher educators from North America, Europe, and…

The present study reports the process of developing and validating a self-report questionnaire that can be employed to examine technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) perceptions of Iranian EFL teachers. To conduct the study, a survey instrument consisting of items adapted from two existing TPACK-based survey instruments was generated.…

Aim/Purpose: The objective of this study is threefold: (i) investigate how a group of subjects see the relationship between the integration of content, pedagogical and technological knowledge of their chemistry teaching in light of the teaching practices developed during the pandemic; (ii) present a framework for the integration of digital…

A thorough understanding of how "ICT support" provided by teacher preparation programmes influences preservice teachers' "technological pedagogical content knowledge" (TPACK) has become increasingly essential. This study aimed at exploring the mediating role of "ICT perception," "perceived ICT competence"…

Mishra and Koehler's technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) theory can help provide the framework for measuring needed knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) in faculty members at 2-year public colleges. This study tests a self-assessment survey in a large sample of 2-year public college faculty members. Using factor analysis, the…

Aim/Purpose: This paper utilizes the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to examine the extent to which acceptance of Remote Virtual Computer Laboratories (RVCLs) is affected by students' technological backgrounds and the role of collaborative work. Background: RVCLs are widely used in information technology and cyber security education to provide…

While various quantitative measures for assessing teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) have developed rapidly, few studies to date have comprehensively validated the structure of TPACK through various criteria of validity especially for content specific areas. In this paper, we examined how the TPACK survey measure is…

This study aims to expose the training and experience that pre-service teachers acquire in the course of their study at schools of education in regard to the use of information and communication technology (ICT). The study adopts the survey model and its sampling is comprised of 832 pre-service teachers who attend four different faculty of…

Today, students are expected to access, analyse and synthesise information, and work cooperatively. Their learning environment, therefore, should be equipped with appropriate tools and materials, and teachers should have instructional abilities to use them effectively. This study aims to propose a model to improve teachers' instructional abilities…

This study investigated kindergarten teachers' decision-making process regarding the acceptance of computer technology. We incorporated the Technology Acceptance Model framework, in addition to computer self-efficacy, subjective norm, and personal innovativeness in education technology as external variables. The data were obtained from 160…

This study aimed to investigate structural relationships between TPACK, teacher self-efficacy, perceived ease of use, and perceived usefulness for preservice teachers who intend to use technology, based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). A total of 296 responses from the College of Education from three Korean universities were analyzed by…
