Agricultural Education faces continued challenges of filling open positions, and as a result, many states have expanded alternative certification pathways as a means of alleviating the problem. Typically, alternatively certified teachers are experts in their specific industry within agriculture but lack the pedagogical preparation that comes from…

TPACK is a framework that serves as a guide for educators in utilizing technological advancements in learning activities. TPACK has now become a popular topic in both educational circles and research domains. Previous studies have examined the development of TPACK research through various methods, including literature reviews and bibliometric…

The research aimed to measure the effect of educators' teaching effectiveness focusing on content knowledge (CK) and pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) as key determinants. A descriptive survey design was utilised for the study and the participating educators were selected through a simple random sampling method. Four research questions were…

The issue of mathematical knowledge in teaching has been widely discussed over the years. In this study, we carried out a systematic review of the literature with the aim of understanding, quantitatively and qualitatively, the studies developed related to the mathematical knowledge necessary for the teaching of Mathematics, with a focus on Numbers…

Background/purpose: This study investigates the evolving role of the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework in teacher education. It aims to explore the development of TPACK scholarship, identify key contributors, and evaluate its academic and societal impact, thereby offering a comprehensive understanding of its influence…

The purpose of this study was to examine (1) preservice teachers' (PSTs) content development in terms of task selection and specialized content knowledge (SCK) index; and (2) what adaptations to core practices PSTs make in lesson plans during school placement. Content development data were retrieved from 111 lesson plans of 11 PSTs. Data on…

Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) chatbots provide teachers with opportunities to enhance their expertise by exploring topics relevant to their practice. However, studies have raised concerns about ChatGPT's mathematical accuracy. This pilot study evaluated ChatGPT's Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) and Content Knowledge (CK),…

This paper provides a rationale for The Spectrum of Teaching Styles (The Spectrum) as a pedagogical model in teaching physical education (PE). Building on prior discussions/debates (SueSee et al., 2021), we will contest the view that the concept of teaching styles is different from that of a pedagogical model. In doing so, we highlight the most…

This study explored pre-service teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge levels and their blended teaching readiness. In this context, the study employed the cross-sectional survey design, and the variables were analyzed descriptively and correlationally. The study was carried out with the participation of 477 pre-service teachers.…

This qualitative study was conducted to investigate the instructional practices employed by Engineering Graphics and Design (EGD) teachers to teach Isometric Drawing (ID). This enquiry was necessitated by the growing concern from subject advisors and teachers about the poor performance of learners in isometric drawing. In an attempt to meet the…

This study aims to describe preservice mathematics teacher knowledge of higher order thinking skills in terms of definition, Bloom's taxonomy level, curriculum, learning, and evaluation. This research is quantitative research with a survey method. and sample consisted of 248 preservice mathematics teachers in semesters VI-VIII of the Department of…

Learning to read proficiently is an essential skill needed in both academics and life. Without this skill, one's opportunities are limited socioeconomically, socially, and throughout all daily life. However, there is growing concern that the methodology currently used in many school systems is not preparing children for the rigors of reading in…

Background: African American Language (AAL) refers to a rich, widely used, and extensively researched language variety. Despite its importance, AAL remains widely stigmatized in the United States due to anti-Black linguistic racism. Many colleges offer courses with AAL content, and these courses have the potential to help disrupt anti-Black…

This study aimed to understand the relationship among conceptions of teaching and learning (COLT), classroom management self-efficacy (CMSE), and pedagogical content knowledge self-efficacy (PCKSE). A total of 485 in-service Taiwanese preschool teachers participating in this study completed three questionnaires, viz. the Conceptions of Teaching…

The educational impact of Generative AI (GenAI) technologies, such as ChatGPT, has received significant attention. We use the TPACK framework to discuss the types of knowledge teachers require to effectively use GenAI tools. We highlight the qualities of GenAI that make it like other digital technologies (they are protean, opaque, and unstable) as…
