Abstract

This article analyzes how content knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge of ‘spatial transformation’ can be developed with pre-service primary school teachers. The Model of Educational Reconstruction serves as a research framework, in which the conceptions shown by students and experts are compared with one another and the learning needs are determined. The results show that students don’t show an adequate understanding. Based on this analysis, the learning needs are identified and educational guidelines for spatial thinking through geography are proposed.
