Teaching about sustainable development
The PhD project deals with science teachers’ pedagogical content knowledge within sustainable development.
The goal of the PhD project is to generate knowledge about how upper secondary school science teachers transform their disciplinary knowledge about sustainable development in teaching practice and how their pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) develops as a result of collegial reflections and didactic tools.
