Abstract

Knowing how to train science teachers in the information society is a challenging need. To study how technologies are mobilized and integrated into educational practice, the theoretical framework of Technological Knowledge, Pedagogical Content, better known as TPACK, was used. Therefore, this document is a systematic review of the literature of articles in the CAPES / MEC (Brazil) databases of 2006-2018 on the use of the TPACK theoretical framework. The objective of this work was to identify how the TPACK framework is studied in the publications on the training of science teachers, observing the research approach to create an overview of the contributions in the use of TPACK. The methodological procedures proposed by Sampaio and Mancini (2007) were used to review the articles. The main research trends involved studies on the confidence in the instruments to evaluate the dimensions of knowledge in the theoretical TPACK model, the barriers to the development of TPACK and the nature of TPACK. The results allowed to enumerate similarities and differences between the trends of methodological approach and research, as well as to identify the gaps on the use of the TPACK model in important areas such as physics teaching and teacher training.
