Abstract

This systematic literature review aims to identify the themes of the study on the Technology Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework in mathematics education and the research methods used in the studies. The search for articles published from year 2015 to 2020 was conducted through the Google Scholar electronic database. A total of 30 articles were selected. The results show that researchers are more focused on studying the level and effectiveness of technology integration in mathematical learning. Over 50% of the research has been done on teachers compared to students and lecturers in the field of mathematics. The findings also show that technology integration in teaching fraction and algebra is the most frequently studied. Qualitative research method is the dominant research methodology used to study the research objectives regarding the TPACK framework, compared to the quantitative method and the mixed method. Limitations and suggestions for further studies are also discussed.

Highlights

  • Technological advancements contribute to the transformation of education

  • Based on the critical analysis carried out on the purpose and questions of research presented in each article, four main research themes were identified, namely (a) identify the relationships among Technology Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) components, (b) identify the relationship between TPACK components and other variables, (c) identify the extent and impact of the integration of existing and new technologies in mathematics learning, and (d) identify the effectiveness of educators' professional development programs

  • The results showed that two studies examined the ability of TPACK among educators of mathematics subjects, which are Harits, et al, (2019) and Mailizar, and Fan (2020)

Summary

Introduction

Technological advancements contribute to the transformation of education. In this light, the integration of technology in teaching is considered as a responsive and innovative pedagogical tool in 21st-century learning (Naidoo, 2014). Ansyari (2015) argued that the use of technology has increased rapidly in the educational environment while Holmgren (2015) reported that the use of technology-based tools has led to a positive growth in teaching.

Ansyari (2015) argued that the use of technology has increased rapidly in the educational environment while Holmgren (2015) reported that the use of technology-based tools has led to a positive growth in teaching. This is due to the inclusion of year-round students from different family backgrounds who each have different intelligence and abilities. Educators should be wise in selecting and using technology-based teaching aids that have the potential to enhance students’ interest and achievement in the subject
