Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate University teachers’ perception on information and
communication technology (ICT) integration into their teaching method at the university of The
Gambia. The main objective of the study was to determine how teachers at the University of the
Gambia perceived the effects of Technology, Pedagogy, and Content based on TPACK model.
This study used questionnaire, adapted from the technological, pedagogical and content knowledge
(TPACK) framework, which was administered at 88 faculty and staff of the University of the
Gambia to collect data on their level of awareness of on ICT integration. A frequency analysis was
first run to check the scores of all components of TPACK, then a correlational analysis was carried
out to measure the relationship between the TPACK constructs. The data collected from these
analyses are used to construct a structural equation model that showed the relationship of TPACK
constructs as perceived by the faculty and staff of the University of the Gambia. The results of this
study showed that the individual construct (i.e., technology, pedagogy, and content) and the paired
constructs (i.e. Technology and Pedagogy, Technology and Content, Pedagogy and Content
knowledge) of TPACK are positively correlated with teachers’ perceived TPACK at the University
of The Gambia
