Περίληψη: Purpose: This study explored how content knowledge (CK) affects both micro- and macroadaptive teaching, with a focus on microadaptivity, in fourth-grade physical education classes. Methods: In a pre–post design, two female preservice physical education teachers (PSTs) participated in a workshop to enhance their CK for teaching the squat vault (gymnastics) and "moving to get open" (basketball). Microadaptive teaching was assessed through PST responses, task instructions, and student performance; macroadaptivity was analyzed via lesson plans. Results: After the workshop, PSTs identified errors more accurately. The proportion of task instructions addressing student errors increased, and student performance improved in both skills. Lesson plans reflected higher quality content development. Conclusion: CK played a vital role in improving both micro- and macroadaptive teaching. In particular, CK helped PSTs respond more effectively to student needs during instruction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
