Abstract

Teachers need high technological pedagogical knowledge (TPK) to integrate digital technology effectively into their teaching. The valid assessment of teachers’ TPK is important so that researchers can investigate its development and impact on student outcomes. However, providing validity evidence for frequently used TPK self-report scales is challenging. Previous studies have indicated only weak correlations between these scales and tests. It remains open whether low correlations are due to method-specific biases of the self-reports or the fact that self-reports and tests measure different constructs (generalized knowledge/self-efficacy vs. specific knowledge). We investigated the relationship between self-report scales and tests of two aspects of teachers’ TPK – TPK-teaching and learning and TPK-classroom management – in a sample of 238 in-service teachers. Results showed that the TPK self-report scales seemed to measure a different construct (more generalized knowledge) than the tests and that low correlations cannot simply be explained by self-report method-specific biases.
探索自我报告是否适合深入了解教师的技术教学知识
教师需要具备较高的技术教学知识(TPK),才能有效地将数字技术融入教学。对教师的技术教学知识进行有效评估非常重要,这样研究人员才能调查教师技术教学知识的发展及其对学生成绩的影响。然而,为经常使用的 TPK 自我报告量表提供有效性证据具有挑战性。以往的研究表明,这些量表与测试之间只有微弱的相关性。相关性低究竟是由于自我报告方法的特定偏差,还是由于自我报告和测试测量的是不同的建构(广义知识/自我效能感相对于特定知识),这仍然是一个未知数。我们以 238 名在职教师为样本,研究了自我报告量表与测试之间的关系,这两个方面涉及教师的 "教师专业 知识"--"教与学 "和 "课堂管理"。结果表明,TPK 自我报告量表似乎测量的是与测试不同的结构(更广泛的知识),而低相关性不能简单地用自我报告方法的特定偏差来解释。
