Pedagogical Content Knowledge of Mathematics Teacher and its Influence on Students Achievement: An Analytical Study
Keywords:
Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK), Students Achievement, Mathematics TeacherAbstract
The teaching of mathematics may be influenced by a variety of factors, but instructors are crucial to the process. Every student is engaged in class by the teacher, who believes that everyone can learn mathematics. The term "pedagogical content knowledge" was first used by Shulman (1986), which generated a whole new wave of research studies on teachers' subject-matter expertise and the significance of this information for effective instruction. Understanding about the student, the learning environment, the content of mathematics, the mathematics curriculum, and knowledge of pedagogy make up pedagogical content knowledge.
Objective: To understand how a teacher's pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) influences student accomplishment.
Research Question: Does a teacher's pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) affect the academic success of their students? Mathematics instruction: a teacher who teaches students in class 7 grade and has at least a B.Sc. with a B.Ed. or another professional teaching degree. Student Success: Student success in mathematics for the seventh grade, based on researcher-made assessments of the subject matter. According to the data analysis, instructors with a high level of pedagogical subject knowledge have students who accomplish at higher levels, while teachers with a low level of pedagogical content knowledge have students who achieve at lower levels.
