THE CURRICULAR DIMENSION AS A COMPONENT OF THE DIDACTIC KNOWLEDGE OF THE CONTENT

Abstract

We describe a case study focused on the knowledge of the curriculum of a high school physics teacher, two consecutive years on electric field teaching. We used three levels to characterize the knowledge of the curriculum: declarative, design and action. The characterization of the knowledge of the curriculum was doing from pedagogical content knowledge (PCK), through the content analysis as a technique. The results show a high traditional tendency in each of the levels considered. After the intervention, the level of design represents the biggest changes, where intermediate trend increases. These results show the importance of curriculum design of education, in the process of realization of the PCK.
