TPACK ICT Integration model

 Concept of TPACK

What is TPACK model?

TPACK stands for Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge introduced by Punya Mishra and Matthew J. Koehler of Michigan State University in 2006.

TPACK model is a framework that helps educators understand and integrate technology effectively into their teaching practice.

It suggests that teachers need to know about the intersections of 3domains of knowledge: content, pedagogy and technology.

3 domains:

1.  Content knowledge (CK); refers to knowledge about the subject matter being taught, including concepts, principles, and theories in the school  such as Math, Science, English, Social, Geography and history, etc.
2. Pedagogical knowledge (PK); refers to knowledge about teaching methods, strategies, and approaches that are effective in facilitating learning.
3. Technological Knowledge (TK); refers to knowledge about the use of technology, including understanding how to operate various technological tools and systems.

After learning TPACK model, I realized the importance of integrating this model in the teaching and learning as it provides support in covering 21st-century skills, enhances teaching and learning deeply, makes  lessons more interactive and student-centered. Similarly, this framework provides teachers to delve into different pedagogies and technology use in their teaching to meet the diverse interest of students. Students will also have an idea on technology use. 

 I have learned how to develop  lesson plan using TPACK model; the use of appropriate teaching pedagogies , various digital tools and simulations  to teach specific topics.

  For instance, I have chosen the topic 'Three states of matter' from class VI Science Textbook. I used Demonstration method as the first pedagogy and PPT slides to provide content knowledge on the three states of matter . Students will  observe the demonstration done by the teacher and note it down on their notebook.  In the lesson development , I have provided one online game activity to show their understanding of the content . Likewise, I  have used mentimeter to conduct quiz. 

Lesson plan  using TPACK model

Sub: Science

Topic: three states of matter

Class: VI

Time: 45 minutes

Teaching method:  Demonstration, independent learning, cooperative learning

Previous knowledge: 

• separating soluble solids by evaporation

• Separating insoluble solids by filtration 

• Evaporation and condensation

TLM:

1. Power point presentation
2. Mentimeter
3. Science kids 
4. 
   

Lesson objectives: By the end of the class, the  student will be able to;

1. define miscible and immiscible liquids correctly after the teacher’s explanation

2. observe and record changes in the appearance or behavior of liquids when mixed together with provided hands on materials by actively participating in the experiment

3. identify miscible and immiscible liquids commonly found at home or in everyday life.

 Lesson Introduction (13 minutes) demonstration

•  Greetings to the class. Recapitulate  the previous lesson.
• Teacher will provide content knowledge by setting up a simple demonstration on three states of change of matter  to stimulate curiosity about the upcoming lesson content. 
• Start by placing a few ice cubes in the glass container or beaker.
• Ask students to observe and describe the properties of the ice cubes. Guide them to note that the ice is solid and has a definite shape and volume.
• Next, heat the bottom of the beaker by placing over the flame of Bunsen burner. .
• As the heat is applied, students will observe that the ice cubes begin to melt and transform into water. Encourage them to describe the changes they observe, such as the ice melting into a liquid.
• Once all the ice has melted, continue applying heat to the water in the container. As the water heats up, it will eventually start to boil and form steam.
• Finally, ask students to observe and describe the properties of the steam. Guide them to note that steam is a gas and does not have a definite shape or volume.
• Ask students to share their observations with the class. 

•  After that, the teacher will provide information input on changes in three states of matter. Explain the meaning of matter, differences,  properties and examples.

Link - provide a google slide presentation content knowledge on the information input.

Lesson Development 

Activity (11 minutes): independent  learning

Instructions: 

• Log into the the link given below to carry out the activity. This is kind of experiment where individual students will do the activity to place each picture in its proper state and solve other questions.

Follow up activity: (7 minutes)- cooperative learning

Instruction :

• Students in their home group will discuss the questions and asnwer.
• Provide each question to the groups for the discussion. And later they will be sent to other groups to explain. 

1. Give two properties that are common in all matter.

2. Give examples of solids, liquids, and gases that you encounter in our everyday life.

3. Is ice cream soli, liquid, or gas? What will happen to an ice cream when it is kept in the sunlight?

Discussion( 7 minutes)

Assign students the numbers and ask them to go to the expert group and share their answers to the other members. Facilitate the discussion. 

Lesson closure (7 minutes)

• Have quiz to Summarize the lesson 

Instruction:

log into mentor menti.com to solve the question in a group and submit it.
