Abstract
Having good pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) is an important characteristic of effective teachers. However, PCK appears to be harder to develop in primary pre-service mathematics teachers than other forms of knowledge. This paper will explore how using some of the PCK survey questions from the 'Building the Culture of Evidence-based Practice in Teacher Preparation for Mathematics Teaching' group can be used as stimulus for discussion and reflection to cultivate a better understanding of the use of manipulatives in teaching mathematics.
