AbstractResearch indicates educators benefit from developing Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK), a combination of constructs that inform the design of pedagogically-sound technology-integrated instruction. Applying a mixed-methods explanatory sequential study design, we examined if and how novice K-12 teachers, who developed TPACK during the same teacher education program, transferred that knowledge to their full-time teaching upon graduation. A total of 50 participants completed a survey that explored their perspectives of technology integration. Interviews were conducted with 20 participants to further examine the survey results. Three significant findings were identified: (1) participants perceived technology integration as important to their teaching, (2) a disconnect existed between teachers’ perceived importance of technology-integrated activities and actual integration, and (3) persistent barriers continued to challenge teachers’ integration of technology.en_US
