Abstract

This study aims to enhance the competencies of English pre-service teachers in integrating technical knowledge and human-centered competency education for application in the context of middle and high school English education settings. To achieve this, it extends the traditional TPACK model to develop the HC-TPACK framework and the corresponding HC-TPACK-English model. The framework and model were designed through literature reviews and expert consultations, with the internal validity of the model secured through expert content validity assessments. The study also investigated how these pre-service English teachers incorporated both technical knowledge and human-centered competencies in their lesson designs, based on an analysis of their teaching-learning guides in classes using the model. The findings are as follows: First, the HC-TPACK model, which adds human-centered competencies to the traditional TPACK elements, is expected to help pre-service teachers adapt to future educational environments and develop innovative teaching methods. Second, the application of HC-TPACK enabled pre-service teachers to plan lessons that integrate technology in lesson design and strengthen human-centered competencies. This could be confirmed in the lesson plans of prospective English teachers. These results highlight the importance of an integrated approach to content, teaching methods, competencies, and technology utilization for teacher education program developers and educators.
