KAHN, Robyn Raina  e  NYAMUPANGEDENGU, Eunice. Investigating opportunities for integrating methodology when teaching a life science topic (meiosis) to fourth-year pre-service teachers: A case study. Journal of Education [online]. 2022, n.86, pp.64-84. ISSN 2520-9868.  http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2520-9868/i86a04.

Pre-service teachers (PSTs) are expected to effectively integrate their content knowledge with their knowledge of teaching when teaching classes after qualification. This integration can, however, be challenging for PSTs because the two components are often taught separately at teacher education institutions. This qualitative case study investigated the possibilities of integrating the teaching of the two components at a South African university educating future science teachers. Data in the form of video-recorded lectures, video-stimulated recall interviews with a teacher educator, and focus group interviews with 15 PSTs were collected. Data analysis was mainly deductive informed by the topic-specific pedagogical content knowledge conceptual framework. Many opportunities for integrating methodology were created by the teacher educator while teaching meiosis content. The study concludes that integrating methodology when teaching content courses is possible. However, the integration should include explicit discussion of the pedagogical reasoning behind the visible teaching routines.

Palavras-chave : teacher education programmes; pre-service teachers; pedagogical content knowledge; topic-specific pedagogical content knowledge; meiosis; subject matter representations; curricular saliency; pedagogical reasoning.
