In Step 2 of the Technology Integration Planning (TIP) model, Roblyer and Doering (2014) underline the importance of assessing the 'TechPACK'. This involves assessing the 'who' (content knowledge), followed by the 'what' (technological knowledge) and the 'how' (pedagogical knowledge). I personally prefer using the TPAC assessment for Step 2. The TPAC assessment stipulates that the choice of technology should be guided by the 'what' (content knowledge) and the 'how' (pedagogy) within the boundaries of local context. Here is an example of how I use TPAC when integrating technology into the curriculum.

While both the TechPACK and TPAC assessments focus on curriculum and pedagogy (both important), TechPACK does not place enough emphasis on the importance of taking the local context - or the equitable selection of technology - into consideration (also important). More information about why this is essential in the Australian context here and here.

This is a partial re-post. Read the full article in its original form here.  

The highlight of the second semester in TIP is its Founding Anniversary. So it's a week full of events and TIP EXPERIENCE as some would call it.

8TH SEARCH FOR TIP MODEL STUDENTS 2013

Miss Ann B. Mateo, TIP MODEL STUDENT 2012, was there to give her final bow to TIP and pass on the crown to 

Miss Niña S. Cañares. Aside from her beauty, she's also intelligent. Hehe! Di ko na nakita yung sa ibang category pero very well said sya sa question and answer.

Wala kaming picture nung winners eh. Yung mga bet ko lang. :)))

Si kuyang naka-blue :"> Mikhail Pelobello, BEST IN CANDY COSTUME and MR. PHOTOGENIC

Si Cath! Girl crush ko! Classmate ko sa PE! Catherine Mariz Florencio, 1ST RUNNER UP, BEST IN EVENING GOWN, and MISS PHOTOGENIC. She's so prettyyyy. =))))

Bukod sa TIP MODEL inabangan din yung Field Demo ng first year PE students na may theme na ballroom dancing. Nakita ko din humataw ang Talents Guild o TG, TIP's dance crew. And I have to say this, sorry but I think they're better than Mapúa's AI, hehehe! No, srsly. No bias. Wala kong pictures nila pero idol ko talaga sila kuya/ateng magaling sumayaw, nakakatindig balahibo sila =))))

Foundation week highlight: STUDENT'S NIGHT

(C) TIP POSITIVE FB

Nung una ayoko pa sumama dito eh, akala ko kasi konti lang yung mga kakilala kong pupunta, sa huli naka bili pa din kami. Akala ko kasi pa-KJ-an to at mabibitin lang ako. MALI AKO! :D

Excited kami ni Chichay pumunta kaya 1 pa lang nasa school na kami. Nakapanood naman ng Cheerleading competition, CONGRATS CPE! Then nag-clear up tapos pinapasok ulit kami ng 5pm. 

Di ko na namalayan kung anong oras na nagsimula yung concert. 

  The hosts, si Kuyang Archi at Ateng CBE. Hehe!

Merong student bands from different department programs na hindi naman mahirap sabayan kasi mga most favorited yung kinanta nila such as E-heads, Rivermaya, Kamikazee hits. At tatlong beses kinanta yung Kisapmata -_____- 

Favorite ko yung kumanta ng E-heads at Rivermaya medley. 

  Game na game kami, simula pa lang nasa gitna na kami para makipag rak rakan at slaman? Hahaha! Bawal pikon! 

Huggard faces, siksikan, eto yung nasasaktan ka na kasi grabe yung tulakan pero tawa ka pa din ng tawa.

Aristotle Pollisco, kompositor ng Tondo, no longer Simpleng Tao, THE Gloc-9. Starstrucked lang kami! Haha! Medyo may attitude sya but that kept the crowd energetic. Gusto kong marinig sana ng live yung mga unang kanta nya eh, tipong elem and HS days, HAHA! But everyone rooted for SIRENA. Cool dude. \m/

Meron ding guest bands, yung mga NEXT BIG THING, yung mga rising bands na first time mag release ng album, like All for Patricia, not to mention how beautiful their vocalist, Patricia, astig din. Kinwento ng hosts na naabutan pa nila dati na pa-guest band guest band lang ang Callalily sa students' night and look at where they are now, so GOOD LUCK ALL FOR PATRICIA and all the other guest bands! :D

Denise Barbacena, Gloc's protegé. They sang Hari ng Tondo and Upuan.

Wala kaming picture nung nagkakalat kami sa bleachers! XD we danced to DJ DREADKNOXX's music. Walang pakelam kahit sino makakita! Clubbing lang ang peg. Lumipat na kami sa bleachers kasi nakakapagod! 

SI YAEL!!! :""> pinaka inabangan! Ok lang kahit nasa beachers na kami nyan kita pa rin naman at tsaka di rin kami mapapansin sa gitna. Dami ba namang tao. Nagwala at nagpadala pa rin kami sa mga kinanta nya like Tambay, Bitiw, at syempre JEEPNEY <3

Cool in a coat and tie, nagpa-picture sa crowd si Yael. Hihihi! POGI NYA NUH!

The crowd

We finished 11pm. All the performers satisfied us with 4 to 5 songs each (yes including gloc9 and spongecola) walang katapusan na sayawan, head-bangan, slaman, adrenaline rush, sigawan, lahat ng emosyon! Hindi nakaka OP, kahit di mo kilala kasundo at katawanan mo, except lang sa pikon! Kaya bawal talaga pikon! :D probably the most unforgettable college experience I had so far.

LOOK AT US!

These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive, and these are the moments I'll remember all my life~
