LEAL, Sérgio Henrique; NOVAIS, Robson Macedo  y  FERNANDEZ, Carmen. Pedagogical content knowledge of “structure of matter” of an experienced chemistry teacher within general chemistry course. Ciência educ. [online]. 2015, vol.21, n.3, pp.725-742. ISSN 1516-7313.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1516-731320150030013.

In this paper we investigate the Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) of an experienced teacher of Chemistry higher level of education with a history of good performance. A qualitative case study was developed from the audiovisual record of their lessons, instrument application of Content Representation (CoRe), semi-structured interviews and stimulated reflection. We note that the teacher can mobilize in their practice most categories of PCK, adopting the “Didactic” as an orientation for teaching science and showing great concern for the transmission of scientific facts. Despite their classes being predominantly lectures and teacher centered, it was possible to identify moments of an interactive approach, which considers the different views of students on the content taught. Finally, we note that the teacher presents a pedagogical practice that reflected in their teaching strategies.
