Resumo

As dimensões matemática e pedagógica do conhecimento do professor são consideradas especializadas, e pretendese descrever o conteúdo do conhecimento revelado por participantes de um processo formativo com foco nos tópicos de Medida. Considerando o  Mathematics Teacher’s Specialised Knowledge (MTSK), explora-se e descreve-se o conteúdo do conhecimento revelado por um  grupo de professores ao resolverem uma Tarefa para a Formação, implementada em um curso para professores que atuam desde a Educação Infantil, no Brasil. Os resultados trazem um refinamento da categorização do conhecimento do professor, associada aos  tópicos (KoT), ao considerar, de forma separada, o detalhamento do conteúdo desse conhecimento, relativamente a definições,  propriedades e fundamentos. Além disso, no estudo, um conjunto de descritores de conhecimento evidenciam particularidades e especificidades dessa componente do conhecimento do professor, particularmente para os tópicos de Medida, possibilitando um tipo de mapeamento de elementos estruturais e estruturantes desse conhecimento.
