About the Book

Since its emergence, the construct of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) has significantly impacted preservice and inservice teacher education, educational policy, and educational research. PCK has served to re-focus educators' attention on the important role of subject matter in educational practice and away from the more generic approach to teacher education that dominated the field prior to 1975. This text summarizes the theory, research and practice related to pedagogical content knowledge. The audience is provided with a functional understanding of the basic tenets of the construct as well as its applications to research on science teacher education and the development of science teacher education programmes. The authors are prominent educators representing a variety of subject matter areas at primary and secondary levels. Although the focus of the text is science education, it should provide useful reading for any individuals with interests in professional teacher education.
