Abstract: In this article, we describe course components that enable student teachers to combine technological knowledge with pedagogical content knowledge and their contribution to the transition to technological pedagogical content knowledge. The lecturer in the course is a role model in the following course components: teaching modes, assessment methods, and technological knowledge. The research population included 40 student teachers from different disciplines. Data analysis was performed by qualitative as well as quantitative methods. The findings indicate that the course components enabled the student teachers to achieve technological pedagogical content knowledge. The most significant factor in enhancing the process was the lecturer as a role model. Teaching modes also promoted technological pedagogical content knowledge, whereas technological knowledge was an obstacle.
