Using a structural equation modeling approach, this study explores the relationships among teachers\u2019 design thinking engagement (DTE), efficacy in two types of technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) called pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) and technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPCK), and design vitality (DV). A survey containing measurements for teachers\u2019 DTE, PCK efficacy, TPCK efficacy, and DV was delivered to 408 Chinese early childhood teachers. Reliability and validity of the instruments were attained through confirmatory factor analysis. Results indicated that teachers\u2019 DTE was statistically significant in explaining teachers\u2019 perceived PCK and TPCK efficacy, as well as perceived DV. Teachers\u2019 perceived TPCK efficacy significantly predicts DV. However, no significant prediction was found for teachers\u2019 perceived PCK efficacy to DV.\u00a0<em>Practice or Policy:<\/em>\u00a0To ensure teachers with character strength as designers who face technology integration challenges, it is important for teacher development program to highlight teachers\u2019 proximal processes as designers structured with emotional, cognitive, and behavioral processes that can be manifested through design activities of \u201cEmpathize\u201d, \u201cDefine\u201d, \u201cIdeate\u201d, \u201cPrototype\u201d, and \u201cTest\u201d.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chen, N., Hong, H., Chai, C.
