Abstract

The transformation from mathematics knowledge (MK) to mathematics pedagogical content knowledge (MPCK) is an important channel for mathematics teachers to develop their MPCK, and in order to reach the target, they must firstly have a good grasp of mathematics knowledge. While in the survey about mathematical normal students’ level of subject matter knowledge (SMK) in the discipline of simple logic, we could see that normal university students have a low level of it, which indirectly shows that they are quite weak in their MK. Thus, we should not only realize the magnitude of general pedagogical knowledge and content knowledge, but also attach great importance to MK in the development of normal students’ MPCK.
