The book covers the development of PCK in in-service and pre-service teacher education programs, the impact of technology on PCK, and the interplay between CK, PK, and PCK. It is a collection of research articles that explore different aspects of PCK, including its structure, development, and impact on student learning. The articles cover a range of subjects, including science, mathematics, social sciences and language arts.
The main objective of this book is to provide a contemporary understanding of Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK), its importance in different subject areas, and how it can be developed and applied in in-service and pre-service teacher education. The book is intended for researchers, teacher educators, and practicing teachers who are interested in improving their understanding of PCK and its role in effective teaching. The book will provide a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of PCK, its importance in different subject areas, and its applications in enhancing teaching and learning. The book will provide valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities in developing and assessing PCK, and identify current trends and best practices for developing and applying PCK in different subject areas. The book will also contribute to the ongoing dialogue and debate in the field of teacher education, particularly in enhancing the development and application of PCK.
