A case study of secondary pre-service teachers’ technological pedagogical and content knowledge mastery level

In recent years, researchers reported that effective ICT integration requires teachers to acquire knowledge of technology, content, pedagogy and the intersection of these, known as TPACK (Mishra & Koehler, 2006; Archambault, & Crippen, 2009).This study specifically sought to answer: 1) What...
