Abstract
  • Online teaching has gradually been integrated into various classes in recent years. Especially since the outbreak of COVID-19, online teaching has become the mainstream pattern of teaching instead of traditional face-to-face classroom. However, there are still many problems in the quality of students' learning in online environment. The current study applied SPSS26.0 for descriptive analysis and discovered that students' perception of teachers’ TPACK(technological pedagogical content knowledge), students' active learning and high order thinking have some problems, and used smartPLS3.0 for structural equation model test found that the perceived TPACK of students has a significant impact on students' active learning and high order thinking, and students' active learning has a significant impact on high order thinking. Therefore, improving teachers' TPACK in online environment is of great significance to have an improvement in online learning quality. This study also provided a theoretical significance about the relationship between perceived TPACK and active learning and high order thinking in online environment.
