Describe the TPACK Framework and its components.

• The TPACK Framework consists of Technological Knowledge (TK), Pedagogical Knowledge (PK), Content Knowledge (CK), and their intersections: TPK, TCK, PCK, and TPACK.

• The TPACK Framework consists of only three components: Technology, Pedagogy, and Assessment.

• The TPACK Framework is solely focused on Content Knowledge without any intersections.

• The TPACK Framework includes only Technological Knowledge and Pedagogical Knowledge.

How can teachers integrate technology effectively using TPACK?

• Teachers should avoid using technology in the classroom.

• Technology should be used independently of content and pedagogy.

• Teachers can integrate technology by aligning it with content and pedagogy through TPACK.

• TPACK is only relevant for online teaching environments.

• Assessment plays a critical role in evaluating the integration of technology, pedagogy, and content knowledge in teaching.

• Assessment is primarily focused on content knowledge without considering pedagogy.

• Assessment is only used for grading students' performance.

Explain how Technological Knowledge can enhance Content Knowledge.

• Technological Knowledge has no impact on Content Knowledge.

• Technological Knowledge complicates the understanding of Content Knowledge.

• Content Knowledge is solely based on traditional teaching methods.

• Technological Knowledge enhances Content Knowledge by providing interactive tools and resources that improve engagement and understanding.

What are some examples of Pedagogical strategies that utilize technology?

• Textbook reading assignments

• Traditional lectures

• Examples of pedagogical strategies that utilize technology include: 1. Flipped classrooms, 2. Blended learning, 3. Gamification, 4. Online discussion forums, 5. Interactive simulations.

• Group projects without technology

How does the TPACK framework support differentiated instruction?
