In 2022-23, the teacher development program in ELL focused mainly on the technological aspects, in terms of installation, configuration and use of the software. In line with the study recommendations, it is proposed through an action research that a a TPD program with an emphasis on technological, pedagogical and content knowledge (TPCK) dimensions together will enhance ELL effectiveness. Alongside this, teachers' interactions in virtual communities of practice (COPs) can enable sharing of resources, ideas and implementation models which will enable growth in knowledge and skills and further promote their professional development and student learning.
