Pedagogical Knowledge (PK): How to teach
Content Knowledge (CK): How to thing
Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK): How to teach thing
This includes: What’s fundamental, what requires other prerequisites?
Look out for that when learning a new topic
Example: Partitive division vs. quotitive division: equal sharing vs. repeated subtraction example.
PCK in this context is awareness of the fact that there are two division operations
Strategies in teaching:
Ask: “What’s it like for a learner to encounter this material?”
Be curious about thinking processes (instead of pointing out errors)
This tends to encourage reflection instead of pleasing
Apply these strategies when teaching yourself
