Researching Science Teacher Pedagogical Content Knowledge

Abstract: Pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) has been embraced as a way of describing the knowledge possessed by teachers and developing models of science teacher education. We try to analyse the possibility of improving quality of science teacher training on the basis of PCK development. The Taxonomy of PCK Attributes addresses the distinctions within and between the knowledge bases of various disciplines, science subjects and science topics. The concept of PCK conceived by Shulman (1986) embraces the idea that succes… Show more

“…Research in science education indicates that modern teaching methods have a focus that is based on constructivist learning theory where learners participate actively in the learning process (Garbett, 2011;Nezvalová, 2011). This is to ensure that science teacher education in Tanzania (MoEVT), 2007; Nzima, 2016) as in other parts of the world (Nezvalová, 2011) is focusing on preparing future science teachers who can engage students using learner-centered approaches to teaching. They would be able to root students in inquiry-based learning, science talking and discussion and would be able to link what is taught in the classroom to the real world.…”

“…Science teacher education has a role to educate and make science teacher trainees capable of teaching and supporting students' understanding of science (Nezvalová, 2011). An efficient science teacher education program should offer prospective teachers, the relevant content knowledge and a pedagogy that could be used to teach that content knowledge.…”
