“…Many of these CKT assessments have been used in studies to evaluate validity arguments that focus on the nature, development, and role of teacher content knowledge. This new generation of CKT assessments has successfully been used for multiple research purposes, including comparing the knowledge of contrasting groups (including prospective teachers, practicing teachers, and nonteachers) with the goal of supporting the claim that CKT is a form of professional knowledge (Hill et al, 2007; Iaconangelo et al, 2017; Kleickmann et al, 2013; Krauss et al, 2008; Phelps, 2005, 2009; Phelps et al, 2019); studying and evaluating professional development and teacher learning to show that CKT assessments are sensitive to professional learning opportunities (Goldschmidt & Phelps, 2010; Hill & Ball, 2004; Phelps et al, 2016; Tröbst et al, 2018; van Driel et al, 1998); examining differences among types of content knowledge to show that CKT includes a complex of knowledge types (Copur‐Gencturk et al, 2018; Hill et al, 2004; Mikeska et al, 2018; Phelps, 2009; Phelps & Schilling, 2004); and investigating how content knowledge contributes to both teaching quality and student learning outcomes to support the argument that CKT provides evidence directly associated with teacher quality (Baumert et al, 2010; Carlisle et al, 2009; Correnti & Phelps, 2010; Hill et al, 2005; Hill et al, 2008; Kersting et al, 2012; Phelps et al, 2012).…”
