The 5Es inquiry-based Lesson plan activities and the Preservice Science Teachers' Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) Development (original) (raw)
Science is a piece of knowledge as well as a process. The knowledge of science has been expanded day-today; however, the process of doing science in the classroom remained unchanged. Our classroom follows a very conventional way of doing science. Even the used of information and communication technology are popular in teaching-learning of science but how to integrate ICT effectively according to pedagogical demand of teaching-learning of science is remained an issue. Many researchers concluded that ICT tools have great affordances in pedagogical strategies of teaching-learning of science. For example, computer simulation, animation, data logging, and online discussion forum have great affordances in the process of doing science where learners construct their knowledge by themselves. The present study is a pre-experimental, pretest-posttest design of study where the investigator developed 5Es inquiry-based ICT integrated lesson plan activities with the following of the TPACK model framework. The finding revealed that 5Es inquiry-based ICT integrated lesson plan activities effective for the development of preservice science teachers' TPACK construct i.e. TK, PK, TCK, PCK and TPACK, which is useful for effective ICT integration in classroom teaching and learning of Science.
