Using pre-service teachers' (PSTs) technological, pedagogical, content knowledge (TPACK) survey responses, this study's cluster analysis identified five distinct learning profiles: Pedagogical Content Knowledge Specialists, Technological Forerunners, Pedagogically Minded, Balanced Integrators, and TPACK Lingerers. Instead of using a single…

Research Findings: This mixed-methods study utilized the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework to examine surveys, reflections, focus groups, and lesson plans from 22 pre-service teachers (PSTs) participating in two technology-rich courses. Following the completion of these courses, the results indicated a notable…

Since 2020, teaching has gone through substantive transformation. Teacher educators have been compelled to reevaluate their instructional strategies and the use of technology to deliver effective training for pre-service teachers. The year 2020 escalated the use of teaching strategies that relied on technology as a crucial tool in all teaching…

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'…

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…

The integration of technology into teaching and learning processes is highly relevant in today's educational landscape, as technology has become essential for facilitating student learning. However, in practice, technology has not been fully optimized to develop students' critical thinking skills. The TPACK framework, which guides teachers in…

This study examines the factors influencing preservice teachers' (PSTs) technology integration during teaching practice in teacher preparation programs. Utilizing a multidimensional framework, the study integrates models such as TPACK, UTAUT, and the Triple-E evaluation rubric, among others. The research involved a Qualtrics survey of 1,217 PSTs…

Aim/Purpose: The purpose of this systematic literature review is to evaluate the application of UTAUT and UTAUT2 frameworks in K-12 education. Background: This study included an analysis of peer-reviewed empirical studies that use the UTAUT and UTAUT2 frameworks to understand the factors that influence technology adoption among K-12 educators. New…

The demand for postsecondary and online courses is rising, requiring colleges and universities to turn to technology to keep up with the trend. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the higher education transition to online teaching, forcing faculty to use technology to teach. Although technology is ubiquitous in higher education and…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of preservice teachers' identity on TPACK regarding the mediating roles of mathematics teaching competency, teacher belief, and technostress across grade levels. A total of 926 preservice mathematics teachers participated in the study. We used structural equation modeling to determine and…

This study investigates Contemporary Mathematical Instruction Competence (CMIC) using the PISA 2022 dataset. The research aims to identify the underlying dimensions of CMIC and assess their consistency across different cultural contexts. Variables were selected from teacher surveys in PISA 2022, focusing on mathematical reasoning, cognitive…

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…

Educational technology has changed the teaching and learning process in many ways. As teachers needed new strategies to adapt to emerging technology tools and to interact with students, immediate feedback and digital instructional resources had become the norm. Teaching and learning expectations are growing because of technological improvements.…

This research investigates the impact of lecturers' digital literacy skills on higher education institutions. It explores how technology integration influences teaching, learning, and research while proposing strategies to enhance educational outcomes. The central issue is how lecturers' digital literacy skills directly affect higher education…

The potential of AI in K-12 education is vast, promising personalized learning experiences, enhanced engagement, and innovative instructional tools. However, its introduction into classrooms brings forth concerns ranging from ethics to teacher preparedness. Drawing on Christensen's concept of disruptive innovation, this study aims to assess and…
