Abstract
QUISPE-VICTORIA, Fredy; GONZALES-CASTRO, Abel; CARRILLO-CAYLLAHUA, Javier and MENDOZA-RAMOS, Hugo. Pedagogical content knowledge of Primary School teachers in Perú. Conrado [online]. 2024, vol.20, n.96, pp. 291-299. Epub Feb 28, 2024. ISSN 1990-8644.
Different studies on Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) have been carried out based on teachers' self-perception; however, no studies on PCK performance (R-PCK) have been reported. The objectives of the study were to describe, compare and correlate the R-PCK in reference to the variables gender, age, work experience, origin of training center and general skills (Reading Comprehension and Logical Reasoning) of the teacher. Data from the Single National Test (PUN) of primary school teachers for the year 2022, corresponding to the 24 regions of Peru, were used. A total of 94,665 participants were considered in the study (females = 67.4% and males = 32.6%). The results showed that the means in R-PCK differed according to sex, origin of the pedagogical training center and work experience, whether in the public or private sector. On the other hand, negative and statistically significant correlations were reported between R-PCK and age; likewise, a positive and statistically significant correlation was found between R-PCK and General Skills. It was concluded that R-PCK in teachers is found to be related to sex, age, work experience, origin and general skills.
