TRANSLATOR

Hi guys!

I’m Mª del Mar and I’m the translator of this week. I’m going to describe five new words that we have learned this week doing the task in order to remember them. These words are:

TPACK: (Technological, Pedagogical And Content Knowledge) It’s a framework of knowledge which is considered essential to improve the quality of today’s effective teachers.

Technological knowledge: It’s the part of the TPACK that contains all the ICTs and technology use in class by the teacher.

Pedagogical knowledge: It’s the part of the TPACK that contains the knowledge of the teaching skills and strategies that teachers should have to give their classes and to improve and control the environment on that.

Content knowledge: It's the part of the TPACK that contains the knowledge of the concepts, theories,… included in the subject matter that an educator uses to teach their students.

Venn diagram: are schemas which represent the links between the different elements within one topic. In the case of TPACK, the Venn diagram allows us to observe the relations between the three previous concepts and how they impact on one another.   

That’s all for this week! :)
