Modeling the TPACK Framework

Our class last Wednesday has set one terrific example of a class that is conducted in the TPACK framework! Instead of lecturing about it, Dr. Schmidt walked the walk adopting a constructivist approach where students play active and critical roles in making contribution to the knowledge generated and the learning occurred in classrooms. The three major elements of TPACK framework have been thoroughly planned and executed in instruction and I walked out of the classroom with confidence that the goal of understanding the TPACKI framework is absolutely achieved, which motivates me to get on with the revision of one paper about applying digital storytelling in language classroom within the TPACK framework for publication. I would like to extend my personal thanks to Dr. Schmidt. Solute!

  1. Thanks Diana - there are different ways to understand TPACK but when you really break it down (especially in content areas) it is rather easy to understand. But I find it an extremely interesting framework to use to help us understand how teachers develop this critical knowledge base.
