Teachers need to design ICT-integrated learning experiences that help students to acquire 21st century competencies such as problem-solving, collaboration, and knowledge construction. Yet, empirical studies show that teachers continue to use ICT to support information transmission. These findings suggest that teachers lack technological pedagogical content knowledge for 21st century learning (TPACK-21CL). This is a kind of professional know-how for creating ICT-integrate learning experiencs that support 21st century learning. Teachers’ development of TPACK-21CL is inextricably linked to their competencies for design because TPACK is a kind of knowledge that emerges as teachers engage in ICT lesson design. Yet, the current TPACK framework has often been criticized for its limitation as an ICT lesson design framework.
