What should teacher educators know about technology? Perspectives and self-assessments
Authors: Carpenter Jeffrey P., Rosenberg Joshua M., Dousay Tonia A., Romero-Hall Enilda, Trust Torrey, Kessler Aaron, Phillips Michael, Morrison Scott A., Krutka Daniel G., Fischer Christian
This article offers a first look at teacher educators’ (N = 336) perceptions of their technology competencies based on the Teacher Educator Technology Competencies (TETCs; Foulger, Graziano, Schmidt-Crawford, & Slykhuis, 2017). The participants generally rated their competence levels highly in relation to the TETCs. Although many participants reported that the TETCs adequately reflected the competencies required of them, they suggested various additions and changes to the TETCs. This mixed-method study advances understanding of teacher educators’ perceptions of the importance of various competences to their work and offers feedback from the field regarding which competencies might be missing from the TETCs.

The results showed that teachers’ actions in the math subject community did not support the traditional notions of the community-of-practice framework.
