Two-year public colleges educate more than 50% of all U.S. undergraduates, yet graduation rates (29%) fall far below their 4-year counterparts (63%). It is critical for students of 2-year public institutions that their faculty have the appropriate knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) to effectively guide students toward graduation. This study uses technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) theory to evaluate faculty KSAs. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses are used to demonstrate reliability, validity, and the 7-factor structure of the data. This instrument may be useful in pre-employment KSA assessment for potential new faculty, as well as identifying professional development opportunities for incumbent faculty.
