本研究旨在探讨未来科学教师对“臭氧层破坏”的教学内容知识。为了探索学生对臭氧层消耗的主题知识，他们进行了一种多项选择测试，要求他们写下答案背后的原因。这项测试是由140名PST在教育学院的最后一年完成的。对42名随机挑选的小学教师进行了个别访谈，以确定他们对臭氧层消耗的教学知识。从这项研究中获得的数据表明，小学和初中教师没有足够的主题和教学知识向中学生讲授臭氧层消耗问题。此外，显而易见的是，私营部门和技术服务小组对臭氧层消耗问题持有各种误解。小学教师在课程、学生的学习困难、教学策略和活动等方面的教学知识不足。本研究对科学教师的培训提供了一些教学启示。
The purpose of this study was to investigate the pedagogical content knowledge of Prospective Science Teachers (PSTs) on the topic of “ozone layer depletion.” In order to explore PSTs' subject matter knowledge on ozone layer depletion, they were given a form of multiple-choice test where they needed to write the reasons behind their answers. This test was completed by 140 PSTs in their final year at the College of Education. Individual interviews were carried out with 42 randomly selected PSTs to determine their pedagogical knowledge about ozone layer depletion. Data were obtained from the study which indicate that the PSTs did not have adequate subject matter and pedagogical knowledge to teach the topic of ozone layer depletion to middle school students. It was also evident that the PSTs held various misconceptions related to ozone layer depletion. PSTs' inadequate pedagogical knowledge was found in the areas of the curriculum, learning difficulties of students, and instructional strategies and activities. This study provides some pedagogical implications for the training of science teachers.
