Self-assessment for teachers on professional knowledge of digital media literacy in inclusive and digital learning environments

The "Self-Assessment for Teachers on Professional Knowledge of Digital Media Literacy in Inclusive and Digital Learning Environments" (Meidl) is an instrument designed to measure pre-service special education teachers’ knowledge across the seven dimensions of the Technological Pedagog-ical Content Knowledge (TPACK, Koehler et al., 2013) framework. It extends the original TPACK model by integrating digital literacy as content knowledge and inclusive teaching as pedagogical knowledge, thereby addressing key competencies required for inclusive and digitally supported teaching practices. The questionnaire enables the identification of individual strengths and areas for development within and across the core and intersection dimensions of TPACK. Initial valida-tion with pre-service teachers at the beginning of their studies confirmed the instrument’s theoret-ical structure and its applicability for large-scale assessments in teacher education. The present document provides the complete translated questionnaire (see also the original in German lan-guage: Jungjohann, 2024) including all items and background information on its conceptual foun-dation. The MeidL self-assessment is published open access and can be freely used for research and development in teacher education and related fields under the CC BY-SA license.
