This document explores the implementation of the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) model in Dutch for Academic Purposes courses. It highlights teaching methodologies aimed at improving student engagement and active participation. Key findings include the effectiveness of varied learning activities, peer feedback, and the use of technology to foster independent learning. Recommendations emphasize personal learning objectives and the thoughtful integration of technology to support teaching goals. This framework aims to enhance the overall learning experience for bachelor and premaster students.

My findings + Time, place and pace independent + Efficient use of contact hours (the “flipped” classroom)
Wiki Collaborative learning Responsibility own learning Criteria academic paper
My findings + Students can come up with their own criteria > more ‘acceptance’ on assessment + Students have to think explicitly on what is a good paper > more retention − Individual work on a collaborative assignment
GradePeer Specifics of paper dealing with corpus analysis Peer feedback
My findings + Time, place and pace independent + Very user friendly system + Individual feedback for students + By grading another student, students get more insight in their own answers. − Limited options in the system http://uvtapp.uvt.nl/fsw/spits.gradepeer_lib.frmindex

The assignment What? Write a position paper Why? Insight writing strategies How? Think Aloud Protocol With..? An observant (and screencastomatic if you have a laptop!)
My findings + Nice buzz in the classroom + Teacher present to stimulate hesitant students + Immediate discussion on strategies • Some students found it hard to concentrate • Observant became ‘partner’
Peer feedback • Easy to organize • Convenient for planning • Teacher present for questions Set-up mini-tutorial • Form pairs • Formulate feedback, based on checklist (25 min) • Discuss feedback student A (5 min) • Discuss feedback student B (5 min) • General tips & conclusions (10 min)

TPACK – the game • Make a list of possible technologies and discuss a realistic example of an activity you could use in your teaching. • Technology:…………..? • Pedagogy: discussion • Content: media literacy (“mediawijsheid”)
My advice? Use TPACK • to find out about which elements of the model you already know a lot, and on which elements you can still improve; • to set personal learning objectives and to make conscious decisions on the integration of technology in your teaching.
