PLE week 5

TPACK or Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge tries to incorporate all types of knowledge used in the classroom including Content Knowledge, Pedagogical Knowledge and Technological Knowledge. Intersecting these three knowledges creates balance and a framework to draw from in the classrooms. Effective technology integration for pedagogy around specific subject matter requires developing sensitivity to the relationship between all three components.
TPK or Technological Pedagogical Knowledge removes the Content from this formula. It is merely the way of teaching in the classroom with the use of technology without a specific subject matter in mind.
Use of these two types of knowledge can be useful in the classroom. Having a knowledge of your subject and the way to teach it and how to integrate technology into that teaching makes a dynamic classroom allowing students to understand the subject matter while using technology, making things more interesting for them. This includes video, music, and interactive websites.
