Keys ideas to make effective used of TPACK
Concept from the content being taught can be represented using technology.
Pedagogical techniques can communicate content in different ways using technology.
Different content concepts require different skills levels from students, and educational
technology can help address some of these requirements.
Educational technology can be used in tandem with students’ existing knowledge, helping
them either strengthen prior epistemologies or develop new ones.
