Screen shots and more!

TPACK contains three different sections including PK, CK, and TK. PK knowledge is all about knowing about general teaching skills. CK pertains to having knowlege realted to a certain content. TK entails having the technological knowledge or skills that will allow you to use technologies. It is mainly concerned with how to support specific content areas. An example of this include using powerpoints

TPK is the understanding of how technology can be used in general areas. This means, how it can be applied overall, but not to a specific content area. In English I might use TPACK to help advance primary research of older texts in archives or scan images of older texts that sutdent's would not be able to view otherwise. IN TPK, I liked the example of powerpoints- they are good for just about every subject and help 'spice up' presentations.
