Technological pedagogical knowledge (TPK) is the knowledge of how technological tools can be used in a pedagogical context. TPK is not content specific, but rather addresses how to use technology in conjunction with the general knowledge and skills related to teaching. TPK can be used to support teaching methods and strategies in any content area. Examples of TPK may include the knowledge of how to use multimedia tools such as videos and audio to help students become interested and engage in the topic, such as French culture.
