TPACK Framework

The TPACK Framework is one in which  Technology, Pedagogy and Content Knowledge are combined to promote the most effective learning experiences for each student.

As we can see in the diagram however, effective teaching can also occur when two or more of these teaching elements are combined. For example, Pedagogical Content, Technological Content, and Technological Pedagogy.

The TPACK Framework reminds educators that technology is not simply something to bolt on to learning experiences (Mishra & Koehler, 2006).
"Quality teaching requires developing a nuanced understanding of the complex relationships between technology, content and pedagogy, and using this understadning to develop appropriate, context speicific strategies and representations" (Mishra & Koehler, 2006).

I believe that each element is important to the learning of our students and when used in such a way as the TPACK framework suggests it will see more success in the engagement of students and ultimately ensure student success.
