Abstract

This study aims to examine the papers prepared on pedagogical content knowledge published in European Science Education Research Association (2009-2019) conference books from a thematic and methodological point of view. For this purpose, 65 papers were examined. Data were collected through document analysis within the framework of the qualitative research approach. Descriptive analysis was used in the analysis of the data. NVivo 12 program was used to present the research data. Researchers mainly conducted studies on the development/detection of PCK. It has been determined that student knowledge and teaching methods knowledge, which are the components of pedagogical content knowledge, are investigated more. As a sample, it mostly worked with secondary school teachers. The qualitative research method was mainly preferred in the research. It has been determined that tests, interviews, and questionnaires are used primarily as data collection tools. In the data analysis, it was seen that the focus was more on content analysis.
