TY - JOUR T1 - Analysing the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge Levels of Physical Education and Sports Teachers TT - Analysing the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge Levels of Physical Education and Sports Teachers AU - Murathan, Talha PY - 2025 DA - July Y2 - 2025 DO - 10.22282/tojras.1596153 JF - The Online Journal of Recreation and Sports JO - TOJRAS PB - Metin YAMAN WT - DergiPark SN - 2146-9598 SP - 235 EP - 245 VL - 14 IS - 3 LA - en AB - The technological developments exert an influence over the educational activities and diversify them. Expectations from teachers, who are the most circumspect actors of these continuums, also differ. Concordantly; the objective of this study is to analyze the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPCK) levels of Physical Education and Sports teachers actively working within the Ministry of National Education. The effect of variables such as gender, professional seniority, computer usage time has been scrutinized for determining the TPCK levels of their teachers. The study group of the research was formed by 506 Physical Education and Sports teachers who worked the in the 2023-2024 Academic year. The data were obtained using the personal information form and the TPCK scale. According to the results of the statistical analysis carried out with the descriptive screening model from the quantitative research methods, it was monitored that all sub-dimensional averages of the scale were adequate and eminent. PK and PCK have a higher score average than other sub-dimensions. It was obvious that male teachers were more competent than female teachers in TK size, teachers who received graduate education had a higher TPCK level than teacher candidates who received undergraduate education, and that teachers who completed their technology education were higher than the averages of other groups in all sub-sections compared to their computer usage time at TPCK levels. It has been understood that teachers who work between 21-25 years have a lower level of TPCK than teachers with lower professional seniority.
