This study aimed to explore the relationships among physical education (PE) teachers’ teaching self-efficacy and their technological pedagogical and content knowledge (TPACK) by adopting the structural equation modeling technique. A total of 359 Taiwanese in-service PE teachers in junior high schools participated in this study. This study used two questionnaires, namely the teaching self-efficacy survey (containing teaching outcome expectancy, knowledge efficacy, and motor skill efficacy) to assess PE teachers’ perceptions of teaching self-efficacy, and the TPACK survey (including technological pedagogical knowledge, technological content knowledge and technological pedagogical content knowledge) to investigate their confidence in their TPACK. The results showed that both instruments exhibit satisfactory validity and reliability by confirmatory factor analysis. Structural equation modeling was used to evaluate the fit of the hypothetical model and the results indicated that all of the goodness-of-fi t indexes reached acceptable values in path analysis. In this study, PE teachers’ knowledge efficacy could positively predict both of their technological pedagogical knowledge (TPK) and technological content knowledge (TCK). Moreover, PE teachers’ technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPCK) was positively predicted by their TPK and TCK. Furthermore, PE teachers’ motor skill efficacy has a positive prediction on TPCK. However, PE teachers’ teaching outcome expectancy could not predict their TPK, TCK and TPCK in a significant way. |
