Abstract

The paper reports the first results of a research project aimed at developing an adequate framework of teaching competencies (Tigelaar et al., 2004) adjusted to modern approaches to teaching with technology in accounting and business education. The paper draws on the generic teacher competence framework that was previously used for modelling pre-service teacher competencies in vocational education (Baumert & Kunter, 2013) and proposes to extend the area of its use to include in-service teachers within higher education and to incorporate a set of TPACK (Mishra & Koehler, 2006) constructs to capture and to structure the essential types of teacher knowledge for effective technology integration. Based on literature review, the paper presents a conceptual framework of teacher competence-in-action (Chomsky, 1965) in technology-enhanced environments within higher education for future research and practical purposes, such as evaluating teaching effectiveness and guiding faculty development in accounting and business education
