N2 - One of the major outcomes from the national Teaching Teachers for the
Future (TTF) Project in 2011 was the development and statistical
validation of a survey instrument to measure the Technological
Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) of pre-service teachers as a
result of the TTF intervention implemented across all Australian Education
Institutions (HEI) delivering pre-service teacher education programs. The
TTF project was positioned within the context of the emerging
implementation of National Professional Standards for Teachers (AITSL,
2011) and focused specifically on the national curriculum areas of
Mathematics, Science, English and History. The TTF TPACK Survey
instrument developed for the TTF Project was informed by earlier work on
the measurement of TPACK and ICT integration in classrooms (Albion,
Jamieson-Proctor & Finger, 2010; Jamieson-Proctor & Finger, 2009;
Jamieson-Proctor, Watson, Finger, Grimbeek & Burnett, 2007). The
development of the instrument was guided by the TTF Research and
Evaluation Working Group and incorporated additional items to extend the
earlier developed TPACK Confidence Survey (TCS), in order to meet the
particular needs of the TTF project. The data collected were subject to a
battery of complementary analysis procedures using both the pre
(N=12881) and post (N=5809) data. Four scales were investigated and
confirmed as reliable: (1) Confidence - teacher items; (2) Usefulness -
teacher items; (3) Confidence - student items; and (4) Usefulness - student
items. This paper describes the theoretical framework and psychometric
properties of the TTF TPACK Survey developed and administered in 2011.
