General pedagogical knowledge of primary school teachers in Geneva
This contribution provides a statement of teachers’ general pedagogical knowledge via a thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews with 23 elementary school teachers of the canton of Geneva. Analysis identifies 94 reported behaviors converging into 10 sets of behaviors. Three general pedagogical knowledge axes are then identified: diagnosing, teaching, and managing social and disciplinary aspects. These results confirm and extend the data from the literature by proposing a new model representing a dynamic pedagogical knowledge triad.
