TPCKTPCK
Koehler and Mishra’s TPCK framework
•Elementary ed certification programs:
• Low on science
• Low on inquiry models

Strong Science BackgroundStrong Science Background
Something like this should be used in classroom
“interactive technology is a great way to use visual and auditory learning styles to reach students with different learning abilities.”
“using interactive technologies is essential in these times.”

Weak science backgroundWeak science background
See no value for it
“I don't think that I will do all that much with technology when I get into my classroom ... If we can provide entertainment without the computer how cool are we?”
•80% of K-8 teachers do not teach with inquiry
•Pressures of high stakes testing
•Few experiences

Teaching ExperienceTeaching Experience
Something like this should be used in classroom
“We are currently living in an age where video games, ipods, laptops and cell phones rule. In order to compete schools must find ways to engage and maintain our students' attention. We have to incorporate more computer based research and activities into our lessons.”

Beyond Value…Beyond Value…
But:“I am a teacher who has two computers at home, I occasionally use my daughter's ipod, I play video games with my son and who doesn't have a cell phone. I have all of these devices at the tip of my hand and yet I rarely use technology in my classroom.”
•How to achieve TPCK with deficient PK and CK?•Science instruction must be integrated with technology

“It is simply my unwillingness to think out of the box when it comes to technology. I'll try the latest teaching strategy or do something out of the norm that my colleagues won't do and yet I refuse to give technology a try. Here I go with the excuses: lack of working computers, time, the curriculum, standardized testing, students' behavior, school walkthroughs, etc, etc, etc. In spite of these I know I have to do better by my students. Hopefully, this summer I'll be able to create some lessons and reformat activities that will incorporate more interactive technology. Sadly, this statement sounds familiar. Oh yeah, I think I said it last spring......”
