Discussion: TPACK Design
Discussion | Interaction Strategies (How relate to Instructional Activities and Pedagogic Strategies)?
Specific interaction strategies: (Because my students are using a specific technology in this specific way, I expect cognitive amplification in these areas: consider, for example, Bloom’s Taxonomy).

- Potential interaction strategies in an online worksheet
- Potential interaction strategies in a graphic organizer: Compare & Contrast
- Analysis of the interaction strategy implicit in a Simulation: A Gallery Walk
- Analysis of a video lesson: Exploring Emigration: Maps & Migration : Using maps and technology to explore geography /Grades 6-8, Social Studies.
Discussion | The Learning Activity Types Website | Helpful for choosing the right technology to help represent content. (Resources about PCK for the Design of technologically enhanced learning experiences (TELEs))
