Abstract

As a review study, the present study was carried out in order to introduce PCK construct to researchers and evaluate which aspects of PCK were studied in our country, and, finally, make recommendations in light of the analysis of the studies for further research. For this purpose, ERIC database, YÖK (Higher Education Council) database were searched by using "Pedagogical Content Knowledge" as keyword. Moreover, journals published in Turkey and which are possible to be reached electronically were searched using the same keyword. 28 studies in the science education context were analyzed by means of standards obtained from the related literature. Results showed that large part of the studies were conducted with pre-service teachers as case studies. Moreover, PCK was studied in terms of its components rather than as a whole. In addition to that, participant teachers and pre-service teachers have some shortcomings regarding to PCK, pedagogical knowledge, and subject matter knowledge. Findings will hopefully provide some insight for researchers since shortages of the related literature will be determined by this study.

Özet

Bir alan taraması olan bu çalışma, ülkemizde Pedagojik Alan Bilgisi (PAB) alanında araştırma yapmak isteyen araştırmacılara hem PAB kavramını tanıtmak, hem de ülkemizde bu alanda hangi noktaların çalışıldığını ve eksikliklerin neler olduğunu göstermek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. PAB anahtar kelimesi ile ülkemizde yayınlanan eğitim dergileri, ERIC ve Yüksek Öğretim Kurumu [YÖK] tez veri tabanı taranarak elde edilen 28 çalışma (Fen eğitimi alanında) analiz edilmiştir. Sonuçlar yapılan araştırmaların büyük kısmında öğretmen adayları ile kısa süre zarfında ve daha çok nitel durum çalışmaları ile çalışıldığını göstermektedir. PAB, bileşenleri bazında çalışılmış olup bütünsel olarak çok az sayıda çalışmada ele alınmıştır. Ayrıca, öğretmen adayı ve öğretmenlerin PAB, pedagojik bilgi (PB) ve alan bilgisi açısından eksikliklerinin olduğu ortaya konmuştur. Alan yazındaki eksikliklerin belirlenmesinin bu alanda çalışan araştırmacılar için aydınlatıcı bir rol üsteleneceği umulmaktadır.
