Integration of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge Components and Inventive Skills among Malay Language Teachers

Open access
This study focuses on the components of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) and Inventive Skills (IS) among secondary school Malay language teachers in Malaysia. TPACK is eight elements related to teacher knowledge to integrate technology, pedagogy and content components in a subject. Meanwhile, IS is a skill dimension that needs to be mastered by Malay language teachers in Malaysia. IS marks one of the most important parts of 21st century skills. Malay language teachers need to be sensitive to every transformation in the national education system in order to be in line with current needs. Therefore, this study tries to analyze the influence of TPACK components on IS among Malay language teachers. This study uses a survey research design and the study sample consists of 400 Malay language teachers of national secondary schools in Malaysia who were selected using a stratified random sampling technique. This study conducted Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) analysis through SmartPLS 3.0 software. Overall, these eight components of TPACK can be important predictors of IS among Malay language teachers. In addition, this study also provides a clear picture to all Malay language teachers in Malaysia regarding proactive measures to master TPACK and IS components comprehensively. The knowledge and teaching skills possessed by teachers will develop in line with their experience in the national education system. Therefore, TPACK components, namely technological knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, content knowledge, technological pedagogical knowledge, technological content knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge, technological pedagogical content knowledge and contextual knowledge will be able to further highlight the teacher's IS during the teaching and facilitation process in the classroom especially among Malay language teachers in Malaysia.
