Overview

Cross-sectional survey finds digital literacy mediates TPACK impacts on modern instruction in pre-service teachers, highlighting the necessity of digital skills in teacher training.

Key Points

  • To investigate the direct influence of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) on twenty-first-century teaching skills and assess the mediating role of digital literacy among pre-service teachers.
  • Conducted a cross-sectional survey among fourth-year education students (N=468) from two universities in Turkey.
  • Applied structural equation modeling to analyze direct and indirect paths connecting TPACK, digital literacy, and twenty-first-century teaching competencies.
  • TPACK exhibited a significant direct effect on twenty-first-century teaching competencies (β = 0.39, p < 0.01).
  • Digital literacy partially mediated the relationship between TPACK and teaching competencies with a significant indirect effect (β = 0.28, p < 0.01), accounting for 56% of the total effect.
