This paper extends existing research regarding content knowledge for teaching (CKT) and the role it plays in advancing student learning. Two teachers, with high and low measured CKT respectively, are observed on the same day teaching similar content. Many studies have recently been published linking student achievement to teacher’s CKT and many US schools have begun including CKT measures in teacher hiring and retention decisions. Teaching observed for this study illustrates that content can be taught effectively by teachers across the spectrum of CKT levels, but observable and significant differences in teaching leads to important questions for in-service and pre-service teacher educators.
Conocimiento del profesor y práctica en el aula: estudio de su conexión
Este artículo amplía la investigación existente sobre el conocimiento del contenido para la enseñanza (CKT) y su papel en el progreso del aprendizaje del alumno. Dos profesores, con medidas altas y bajas de CKT respectivamente, fueron observados el mismo día enseñando contenidos similares. Numerosos estudios publicados recientemente relacionan el logro de los estudiantes con el CKT del profesor y muchos colegios estadounidenses han empezado a considerar medidas de CKT en la toma de decisiones para la contratación y permanencia de profesores. La enseñanza observada en este estudio muestra que el contenido puede ser enseñado efectivamente por profesores con niveles distintos de CKT. No obstante, se observan diferencias significativas en la enseñanza que conducen a cuestiones importantes para formadores de profesores en formación y en ejercicio.
