摘要

This chapter presents the pedagogical foundations of the MTECS course: active learning and the TPACK model. Specifically, it introduces an active-learning-based teaching model designed for implementation in the MTCS course. The model is based on the constructivist approach and is used in this Guide in many of the activities. The chapter starts with the motivation and the rationale for using active learning in the MTCS course; then, the active-learning-based teaching model is introduced and explained, including a description of the role of the instructor of the MTCS course in the model implementation. We then present the TPACK model of teachers’ professional knowledge which encompasses the PCK component, to explain the rational for the selection of the different topics included in this Guide.
