The purpose of this study was to identify components of pedagogical content knowledge of an exemplary biology teacher in junior high school. Data were collected mainly by means of participant observations, teacher interviews, and document reviewed. Participant observations and teacher interviews were video-recorded or tape-recorded. The analytical induction and triangulation were employed to enhance the validity of findings. The teacher's pedagogical content knowledge was composed of four major categories: purposes of biology instruction, students' learning of biology, biology curriculum and teaching medium, and instructional representations of biology. Each category had several chief subcategories. These categories interacted with each other and appeared to be highly integrated. The results were intended for providing suggestions which were contributing to science teacher educators, science teachers, and researchers on teacher knowledge. oblems through understanding; b) teachers should state problems concisely and clearly; c) teachers should give the children more chances to practice the construction of external problem representation; d) teachers should be careful about the effects on the interaction of attribution and instruction. re financed by government grants. ime while fifth grade Social Science teachers gave the longest wait-time. Second grade teachers wait an average of 2.69 seconds while fifth grade teachers wait an average of 2.97 seconds for students to respond. 3. Most questions asked by teachers were relatively easy, low-level cognitive questions, especially in Mathematics. ns C/M isn't an easy task. In general, most teachers recognize the importance of C/R and R/P establishment, but commonly they aren't done adequately and properly, since available materials are quite short and most teachers learn alone or ask others' helps. Basing on above-mentioned findings, the author has offered several valuable suggestions described below to teacher colleges and elementary schools' 1. Request teacher colleges to invest more manpower to proceed systematic researches on C/M field. 2. When hold workshop or offer course of C/M, the establishment and maintenance of C/R and R/P should be assigned as key content. 3. Mutual discussions are necessary during drawing up C/R. Every class should draw up a funtionable, reasonable and practicable C/R and should avoid repeat among different grades. 4. Teachers of each grade and school authorities had better draw up effective procedures of common activities. It will be very helpful to beginning teachers or teacher transfers.
