The Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge framework (TPACK) adds technology to content knowledge and pedagogy. In this instance technology is defined as any tool or device of a technical nature that will enhance the students learning experience. Content knowledge is knowing the subject matter and pedagogy is the way the content is taught (O'Donnell, Dobozy, Bartlett & Bryer, 2012). As the diagram below shows, the TPACK framework outlines the overlapping of these areas to create more contemporary classrooms that invite students to participate in their own learning. In order to do this successfully, teachers of the 21st century are required to be competent in all the aforementioned areas.
