Abstract
The increasing demand for flexible and innovative educational modalities has
established virtual learning environments as a key strategy in higher education. In
foreign language teaching, the effectiveness of these environments depends not
only on the use of digital platforms but also on the integration of pedagogical
frameworks that ensure meaningful, interactive, and student-centered learning
experiences. This study analyzes the application of the Technological Pedagogical
Content Knowledge (TPACK) model as a theoretical and practical framework for
designing virtual courses within the Specialization Course in the Administration of
Virtual Environments for Foreign Languages Teaching and Learning at the
University of El Salvador. The research explores the origins, evolution, and
theoretical foundations of TPACK, highlighting its relevance in balancing content,
pedagogy, and technology in online language education. It also examines case
studies, challenges, and limitations, proposing strategies based on active learning,
digital inclusion, and continuous teacher training. The findings indicate that
applying TPACK contributes to the development of more integrated, effective, and
student-centered teaching practices, strengthening teacher competencies for
managing virtual environments and improving the quality, accessibility, and
relevance of foreign language learning at the University of El Salvador. This study
provides a reference framework for optimizing virtual language courses, fostering
communicative skills, intercultural competence, and digital literacy.
