In recent years, the rapid integration of technology and education has transformed teaching practices, highlighting the necessity for university teachers to develop the ability to effectively integrate technology, pedagogy, and content knowledge. Various TPACK capability enhancement trainings have emerged, but there are no unified standards for the quality of training content and the management of the training process. This study employs the expert scoring method to evaluate the TPACK (Technology, Pedagogy, and Content Knowledge) training module designed for teachers at Qingdao University. Using purposive sampling techniques, five experts in the field of TPACK were invited and consulted to evaluate the content, structure, and applicability of the modules through a systematic scoring process. The TPACK training module includes content from 6 units consisting of 19 sub-units, as well as the implementation plan for the training. The results of the study indicate that the TPACK training module received a high score for its effectiveness, reflecting its relevance and potential for improvement in higher education teaching practices. This research provides valuable insights into the evaluation of professional training modules for university teachers, emphasizing the importance of expert validation in ensuring the quality and effectiveness of such projects.
