The Tpack model as a hybrid training oportunity in masters and postgraduates degrees

Abstract

In the 2020-2021 academic year, during the pandemic, the teaching team of the Master Social and Educational Interventions of the University of Barcelona applied the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) model, which integrates technology in the teaching-learning processes (Mishra & Koehler, 2006). A participatory evaluative research (Redice Redice20-2861), with the participation of faculty and students involved, was carried out to identify the elements that facilitate and hinder virtual teaching, to know the impact of its application and to formulate recommendations applicable to online university higher education. A mixed quantitative and qualitative methodology was used, employing different instruments such as questionnaires, focus groups, interviews and observations during the 2020-2021 academic year, analyzed with NVivo 11, Atlas.ti 8.0 and Excel. The results obtained show that the application of digital environment activities within face-to-face training improve, among others, the connection with the professional world and offer dynamization strategies in the classroom that contribute to the creation of learning communities as an effective strategy.
