In this workshop, you'll learn about the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework, discuss its role in professional development that supports 21st-century learning and compare notes on how it could enhance technology integration. The TPACK model describes some essential qualities of the knowledge required by teachers for technology integration, while addressing the complex, multifaceted and context-dependent nature of teacher knowledge. The workshop will end with participants developing a "so what" statement about what they have learned and an option to join a personal learning network.
