Abstract

The present study aimed to: (a) develop a conceptual TPCK-SRL scheme for assessing teachers’ integration of self-regulated learning (SRL) considerations while infusing technology into a TPCK classroom context (blending K = knowledge about T = technology, P = pedagogy, and C = content), which reflects all three knowledge components’ dynamic interactions with SRL and (b) test this scheme's validity and reliability as a practical tool for measuring effects of teacher education. The scheme was used to assess 9 preservice teachers’ lesson designs, collected before and after a course on TPCK Teaching and Learning Methods. At posttest, lesson designs revealed specific, qualitative TPCK-SRL descriptions that referenced TPCK components and SRL considerations (what, how, when, and why to infuse technology), thus providing content validity for the scheme. Theoretical, methodological, and practical implications and future research are discussed for using the TPCK-SRL scheme to empower teachers’ technological professionalism.

► A TPCK-SRL assessment scheme was developed. ► Integrating technology, pedagogy, content knowledge with self-regulated learning. ► The scheme was validated on preservice teachers’ lesson designs. ► Mixed methods were used for content validity for the scheme.
