Pedagogical Knowledge of Faculty Members in the College of Education at Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from the Students' Perspectives

This study aimed to uncover the pedagogical knowledge of faculty members in the Faculty of Education at Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University according to the students' perspectives. The researcher used a questionnaire that consisted of 31 items covering three dimensions: content knowledge; students' characteristics knowledge; and pedagogical knowledge, and applied it to a random sample of 405 students who were enrolled in the second semester of the academic year 2016/2017 from the College of Education at Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University. The obtained results showed that the students believed that faculty members had a low level of pedagogical knowledge in all aspects. In light of the study's results, the researcher recommended conducting a meditative training workshop in order to develop the college members' pedagogical knowledge as well as conducting related comparative studies.
