This study tracked the changes of preservice biology teachers' pedagogical knowledge along with science teaching efficacy throughout sequentially developed science methods course I and II over two consecutive semesters. Two courses, science methods course I and II, aimed these preservice teachers to discuss the notion of science teaching with teaching and learning theories, to learn science instructional models, to design lessons utilizing science instructional models, and to eventually implement microteaching. The preservice teachers were mainly engaged in cooperative instructional planning activities through science methods course I, and engaged in cooperative microteaching activities through the science methods course II. This study revealed that preservice teachers successfully developed pedagogical knowledge and science teaching efficacy after two science methods courses. The science methods course I where cooperative instructional planning activities occurred helped the preservice teachers to improve pedagogical knowledge but not science teaching efficacy. Based on their pedagogical knowledge development, then, these preservice teachers increased science teaching efficacy belief after completion of the science methods course II.

A perspective of the nature of teacher knowledge has a significant impact on why and how we study teacher knowledge. The purpose of this study was to explore the mathematics knowledge in teaching (MKiT) in terms of meanings, characteristics, and analytic methods. MKiT regards teacher knowledge as practical knowledge that has meanings only when it is employed in teaching mathematics. Various components of teacher knowledge interact one another in teaching mathematics. Given this, teacher knowledge is regarded as an organism specific to teaching contexts and it needs to be analyzed by observing lessons or a teacher's actions related directly to the lessons. This paper is expected to induce research on teacher knowledge from the MKiT perspective and urge researchers to have a profound understanding of the nature and analytic methods of teacher knowledge. Some implications of future research are included.
