Our findings show that there is variability in the accuracy of our machine learning models and that instructors are better at identifying predictive behaviors as compared to the models. Instructors in this context engaged in orchestration strategies, like monitoring and probing when using the orchestration tool, and groups of students were largely talking while on-task across classes.

Still, due to the contextualized nature of TPACK and potential biases, their use as proxies for actual knowledge has been criticized. Self-reports may be especially gender biased as women often underestimate their performance in STEM subjects. Drawing on a sample of <em>N</em> = 161 mathematics in-service and pre-service teachers, we aim to analyze (i) the structure of the self-reported knowledge and (ii) the relationship between self-reported and contextualized actual knowledge. To this end, we used general TPACK self-reports and a test instrument that infers the amount of knowledge separately for each dimension from performance over multiple authentic demands that teachers encounter teaching secondary school mathematics. The current study shows that the TPACK self-beliefs can be separated and measured reliably. Although all self-beliefs show bivariate relations to corresponding actual knowledge dimensions, this changes for PCK and TPCK self-beliefs when other actual knowledge dimensions are controlled. We interpret these findings that TCK self-belief and to a lesser degree CK self-belief seem to be calibrated according to corresponding actual knowledge, while PCK and TPCK self-beliefs are primarily calibrated according to non-pedagogy-related actual knowledge. Lastly, we do not find gender biases, but a small gender effect with lower actual and self-reported knowledge for female teachers over all dimensions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100322,"journal":{"name":"Computers and Education Open","volume":"7 ","pages":"Article 100205"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666557324000454/pdfft?md5=290ef98eebdb49df8a3d405754b18920&pid=1-s2.0-S2666557324000454-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141842187","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given this diversity and the lack of performance-based measures to estimate competence growth, little is known about the effectiveness of respective interventions.

Interestingly, in more than 20% of the interventions, specific training on Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (i.e., TPCK) was absent although TPCK is considered crucial for successful technology integration. Results further revealed that researchers do not seem to have adapted the design of interventions on instructional contexts (such as the expertise level of the target audience).

Survey items that are not contextualized to the target participants increase the risk of measurement error and bias. Therefore, we adapted existing TPACK surveys to specifically measure university teachers’ competences for teaching with technology. We shortlisted five existing TPACK surveys and scrutinized their respective subscales and items. We then adapted these items to more adequately capture context-specific experiences for university teachers to ensure construct validity. We collected two waves of data to test our adapted TPACK survey, which comprises 31 items distributed across seven subscales, among teachers from various disciplines in a large university. With confirmatory factor analysis, we confirmed the seven-factor structure of the adapted TPACK survey in both data waves. Moreover, the seven subscales showed adequate internal consistency. An exploration of TPACK competences among teachers from different disciplines showed both similarities as well as dissimilarities. An example of similarities is that university teachers from all disciplines felt most competent in CK and PCK, while they reported relatively low competence ratings for TPCK and TPK. Besides, an example of dissimilarities is PK; teachers from the discipline of science and engineering reported the highest score compared to other disciplines in the prior wave, while they evaluated themselves third lowest in the latter wave.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100322,"journal":{"name":"Computers and Education Open","volume":"7 ","pages":"Article 100202"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666557324000429/pdfft?md5=2195c53fdff60072bdd30a467dd5ccdd&pid=1-s2.0-S2666557324000429-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141639114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet research on contextual knowledge (XK) appears somewhat sporadic, indicating the need for greater clarity on this construct. As the domain representing the knowledge of educational contexts, the role of experience in educational contexts emerges as a key point for shedding light on this construct. The present systematic literature review aimed to offer an overview of the representations and functions associated with XK through the lens of experience and investigated this domain through comparing the empirical literature focusing on preservice teachers (less experienced) to that focusing on inservice teachers (more experienced). Systematically screening the literature resulted in a final sample of 15 studies conducted among preservice teachers and 23 on inservice teachers. Records were analyzed through qualitative codings and quantitative comparisons of these codes between these two groups of studies. Findings revealed a consistent multifaceted structure of XK across both inservice and preservice teacher studies with a distinctive greater focus on school-level factors in inservice teacher studies. In addition, across groups, studies provided evidence confirming XK as a domain supporting teachers’ practice, that can be developed, and that relates to other pedagogically relevant constructs.

The research methods integrate legal research, interviews with UK data protection experts and education professionals working at various levels from national to local, and a socio-technical investigation of the flow of children's data through Google Classroom. The findings show that Google Classroom undermines children's privacy and data protection, potentially infringing children's other rights. However, they also show that regulation has impacted on Google's policy and practice. Specifically, we trace how various governments’ deployment of a range of legal arguments has enabled them to regulate Google's relationship with schools to improve its treatment of children's data. Although the UK government has not brought such actions, the data flow investigation shows that Google has also improved its protection of children's data in UK schools as a result of these international actions. Nonetheless, multiple problems remain, due both to Google's non-compliance with data protection regulations and schools’ practices of using Google Classroom. We conclude with a blueprint for the rights-respecting treatment of children's education data that identifies needed actions for the UK Department for Education, data protection authority, and industry, to mitigate against harmful practices and better support schools.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100322,"journal":{"name":"Computers and Education Open","volume":"7 ","pages":"Article 100195"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666557324000351/pdfft?md5=d6e31f193ffc4e4c432e57f8c197921f&pid=1-s2.0-S2666557324000351-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141277721","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
