Great! Good understanding!



Thanks

Q1:
CK: basic information
PK: methods
TK: tools
Q2:
TCK: pairing the technologies to the content
TPK: We use tools and methods to learn the basic content of the knowledge
PCK: identify the affordances of matching the appropriate pedagogical knowledge

The key concept of CK includes the factual knowledge, concepts, principles and theories that make up a particular field of study.
PK refers to the knowledge and understanding of how to teach a specific subject.
TK refers to the understanding and expertise related to the use, development, and application of technology.

Q1:What is the “key concept” for CK, PK and TK respectively?
A:
CK(Content):subject that teacher exactly teach student
PK(Pedagogical):teaching method
TK(Technological):tools
Q2:What are the relationships between these components in
TPACK?
A:Supplement each other to meet students’ needs

1. Content Knowledge: CK refers to the knowledge and understanding of the subject matter or content being taught like concepts, theories, principles etc.
Pedagogical Knowledge: PK refers to knowledge of teaching methods to facilitate effective learning. It involves understanding learners' needs, designing learning experiences. PK focuses on the art and science of teaching.
Technological Knowledge: TK refers to an understanding of how technology works effectively used in educational contexts. It includes knowledge of tools, software and applications to support teaching and learning.

PCK is about understanding how to teach the content effectively, such as explain the concepts and the misconceptions.
TCK means how to use the technology to raise the teaching efficiency. To enhance the students interest.
TPK is to combine technology with teaching to teach more effectively. For example using IPad in the class to let the lesson more interesting.
