Effect of PK, TK and TPK on the Efficacy of Teaching Practice in Covid-19 Times

This article analyzes the impact of pedagogical and technological knowledge on the effectiveness of the teaching practice that was developed by a group of teachers during a workshop. In this workshop, interactive digital activities were designed and implemented based on the social constructivist approach. Data were collected from each participant’s products and synchronous session contributions. The information was coded according to the TPACK model and the teaching activities. The data was analyzed using a qualitative research approach. The results showed: Motivation and Communication were positively influenced by pedagogical and technological knowledge. This shows that using interactive digital tools helped increase student interest and active participation. The assessment and the presentation of the content were positively influenced by the pedagogical thinking and negatively influenced by the technological thinking. This means that there are still some teachers who continue to evaluate only for the purpose of measuring academic performance and not to stimulate learning, even though there are teachers in distance education who have increased formative evaluation. These results could be a consequence of the use of ICT as an emerging solution in education in times of covid-19. However, it does not mean that the pedagogical model has changed significantly
