Abstract

Scientific evidence shows that the integration of technology, pedagogy and content is a factor in the success of teaching performance, and it is essential to have tools that provide in-depth knowledge of this process. However, almost all the questionnaires on this integration are in English in Scopus and WOS, therefore, validated instruments in Spanish aligned to the culture of the Latin American educational ecosystem are required. From this reality, the study aims at the translation, cultural adaptation, and validation of Valtonen’s Technological, Pedagogical and Content Knowledge for 21st Century Skills Questionnaire (TPACK-21). The research followed an essentially epistemic methodological route. The translated and adapted questionnaire was applied to 221 teachers of Regular Basic Education in Lima, Peru. The confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the 6 dimensions of the model and showed high reliability. It is recommended to continue with research that evaluates the TPACK-21 in different contexts and educational levels, especially in Latin America. It is also suggested to expand qualitative studies for a better understanding of the underlying aspects, as well as the construction of meanings and meanings of teachers as a basis for the creation of continuing education programs.
