Abstract

In response to the shift to online instruction, English language lecturers in Indonesian higher education are expected to integrate digital tools that embody technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge (TPACK). Prior studies often report only tool use frequency, neglecting whether such use advances language teaching goals. This study investigates Indonesian EFL lecturers’ perceived and demonstrated TPACK competence through their use of digital tools and instructional strategies in online English teaching. This convergent mixed-method study examined 59 EFL lecturers from universities across Java, Sumatera, and Sulawesi. Data were garnered from closed and open-ended questionnaires using digital tools. Quantitative analysis using SPSS showed relatively high perceived TPACK competence, with a mean score of 3.962 (SD = 0.826) on a five-point Likert scale measuring tool selection aligned with TPACK principles. Frequently used tools included WhatsApp and the campus Learning System, while Flipgrid and Google Docs were popular for speaking and writing. Thematic analysis revealed varying TPACK alignment; some lecturers deliberately integrated tools for pedagogy and content, whereas others selected technologies mainly for convenience or institutional constraints. Findings suggest that, despite widespread technology use, stronger pedagogical support and ongoing TPACK-focused professional development are essential for meaningful integration in Indonesia.

Abstract

ICT in English Language Teaching (ELT) has revolutionized language learning by allowing the students to become more active, interact frequently and assume more responsibility in their learning process. This study investigates the research question: How do EFL teachers demonstrate and integrate Technological Pedagogical Knowledge (TPK) and Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) in ICT-supported English language instruction? Focusing on EFL instructors at a public university, the study employed a quantitative research design supported by a survey instrument that measured teachers’ self-reported TPK and PCK levels. Supplementary data were gathered through lesson plan evaluations and structured classroom observations to triangulate findings. Descriptive statistical analysis has been conducted and provided in the form of mean scores and standard deviations in order to outline the centralities and ranges in the knowledge domains of teachers. Preliminary results show that teachers have reported to be above average when voicing their Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) (M = 4.1, SD = 0.6), although their Technological Pedagogical Knowledge (TPK) (M = 3.4, SD = 0.9) scores have displayed more variance than the latter, which may show the necessity to provide more support to integrate the use of technology. There was a greater chance that a teacher having higher TPK would employ interactive and student-based ICT activities. In contrast, those with lower TPK relied more on traditional, lecture-based methods despite having access to digital tools. In order to promote balanced teacher professional knowledge (TPK) and pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) in EFL instructors, the results support the significance of focusing on professional development. This presentation provides evidence-based recommendations for teacher educators and policymakers to support the effective integration of ICT in tertiary-level English Language Teaching (ELT) settings.
