Pour+the+Foundation-+Exploring+TPACK

=Pour the Foundation: Exploring TPACK 11:05 - 12:05= In this session, participants will be participating in a TPACK game.

Participants will:
 * Understand and apply basic concepts associated with technological, pedagogical and content knowledge (TPACK).

=I. Ready! (5 minutes)= Here is an overview TPACK game:
 * 1) At your table you will find 3 containers with slips of paper already filled in. In one container (labeled "C"), the slips of paper list different basic content area (SS, SCI, ENG I, MA, etc). In the second container (labeled "T"), the slips of paper list different technologies (blogs, wikis, docs, etc). In the third container (labled "P"), the slips of paper list pedagogical strategies (collaborative learning, PBL, differentiation).
 * 2) We invite you to add you own SPECIFIC technologies (e.g., Moodle) that you have at their district or school and/or pedagogical approaches adopted your school level (Marzano, TQM. etc) to the appropriate labeled containers using the markers and blank slips of paper available on your table.
 * 3) In the first round, each table would draw from 2 containers and brainstorm ways to fill in the third, missing item that would be an EFFECTIVE approach to support student learning.
 * 4) In a second round, participants draw from all 3 containers and brainstorm a lesson with all 3 TPACK components.
 * 5) We invite you to record your “successful” ideas in your TPACK Game Recording Space on the wiki page with your table number listed below.

=II. Set! (15 minutes)= The FI staff will model both versions of the TPACK game for your entertainment!
