In this work, we determine what teacher competencies are necessary for improving the teaching and learning of AI for K-12 with Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework. First, we identify current AI education resources and investigate the core foundations of AI taught to K-12. Based on the findings, we propose teacher competency for K-12 AI education by analyzing AI curricula and resources using the TPACK framework. We conclude that teachers who teach AI to K-12 students require TPACK to construct, prepare an environment, and facilitate project-based classes that solve problems using AI technologies.AI educationCurriculumK-12South KoreaTeacher competencyTPACKText/Journal Article10.1007/s13218-021-00731-91610-1987
