Abstract:
Global educational issues highlight the importance of preparing for the demands of the 21st century by developing core competencies. Geography, as a core subject and theme of the 21st century, necessitates the integration of technology into higher education to enable prospective teachers to effectively utilize technological tools. A crucial aspect of enhancing prospective teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge is the use of instructional modules. Currently, geography modules in higher education are perceived to lack sufficient geographical content. This study proposes a solution to improve prospective geography teachers' Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK) by employing a techno-geospatial based e-module. Researchers decided to apply the Educational Research and Development method because of its focus on developing effective products in the context of educational activities. The findings reveal a significant difference in the n-gain scores between classes using the techno-geospatial based e-module and those that do not. Classes utilizing the e-module demonstrated a moderate level on the self-report measure of TPACK competency, whereas classes without the e-module were categorized as low. The techno-geospatial based e-module has proven to be both effective and feasible for enhancing prospective geography teachers' TPACK. This research contributes to the development of e-modules aimed at preparation for 21st-century skills.
