High quality science and mathematics education is central to economic prosperity. This study will achieve two outcomes. Firstly it explores the importance of subject matter knowledge in teaching. Much has been studied about the knowledge of teachers but limited research has been conducted with teachers who have substantial subject-matter knowledge. These findings will inform the current debate about the appropriate models of teacher education and the balance of emphasis on content knowledge and pedagogical knowledge. Secondly, given a number of attempts to attract mid career professionals with high qualifications to teaching, the study will provide evidence on how these people transition to their new careers and what support is needed.

高质量的科学和数学教育是经济繁荣的核心。这项研究将取得两个成果。首先探讨了学科知识在教学中的重要性。关于教师知识的研究很多，但对具有大量学科知识的教师进行的研究有限。这些研究结果将为当前关于教师教育的适当模式以及强调内容知识和教学知识的平衡的辩论提供信息。第二，考虑到为吸引具有高学历的中等职业专业人员从事教学工作所做的一些努力，这项研究将提供证据，说明这些人如何过渡到新的职业，以及需要哪些支持。
