Background
Uncomfortable with subject knowledge competencies – what students can’t do
Critique of competence model (Martin 2008)
Exploration of eportfolios for previous 5 years
Presentations at subject conferences Now focus of doctoral work

Nature of subject knowledge
Knowing in action –Schön (1983) Pedagogical content knowledge and
pedagogical reasoning – Shulman (1986)
Construction of knowledge through practical activities – Greeno et al (1996)
Situated and social – Putnam & Borko (2000)
Knowledge in practice - Ellis (2007)

Questioning subject knowledge
A fixed body of knowledge? Knowledge developed as and when
necessary so why audit and check? Personal ‘body of knowledge’ – one
size fits all does not work…
![Page 5: Mike Martin Liverpool John Moores University m.c.martin@ljmu.ac.uk.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/551bfb3f550346a84f8b4933/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Perspectives
Looking at three perspectives Institutional – ITE providers, TDA Professional – schools, subject
mentors Personal – student / NQT / beginning
teacher
![Page 6: Mike Martin Liverpool John Moores University m.c.martin@ljmu.ac.uk.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/551bfb3f550346a84f8b4933/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Institutional
Acceptance of a place on the course subject to a particular level of subject knowledge
Auditing, target setting, tracking all managed by the ‘provider’
Lists of competences generated – often subject knowledge per-se, not application
Internal and external monitoring
![Page 7: Mike Martin Liverpool John Moores University m.c.martin@ljmu.ac.uk.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/551bfb3f550346a84f8b4933/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Professional
Students come to the professional context already with subject knowledge
Focus on helping to teach what is already offered to pupils
What happens in the classroom is the focus
Knowledge required is driven by curriculum of the moment
![Page 8: Mike Martin Liverpool John Moores University m.c.martin@ljmu.ac.uk.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/551bfb3f550346a84f8b4933/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Personal
Development of subject knowledge in the individual student / NQT / beginning teacher
Knowledge acquired by an individual according to their needs

Decided to canvas opinion Questionnaire developed to get a
snapshot of students’ opinions

Ownership
Owned by institutions – knowledge static, content focused and uniform
Owned by professionals – curriculum driven, delivery focused and diverse
Owned by the individual – personalised, unique and diverse, non-uniform
![Page 16: Mike Martin Liverpool John Moores University m.c.martin@ljmu.ac.uk.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/551bfb3f550346a84f8b4933/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Methods of learning
In institutions – learning with peers In schools – learning with mentors,
technicians Self-taught – OK for knowledge
acquisition

Assessment
A question of competence What can be assessed? Students work – annotated Pupils work - annotated

Eportfolios
Used to capture a variety of media Usually personal and ‘owned’ by the
student Storytelling – Helen Barrett www. electronicportfolios.org Annotation

Question time…
Who should drive subject knowledge development in ITE?
How can differences between institutional and professional expectations be resolved?
What interventions / actions could improve subject knowledge development in schools?
What balance should there be between generic / transferable skills and single subject knowledge per se?
How much knowledge is needed to teach your specialist subject?
