Carlos Bernardo Gomez Ferragud

Carlos Bernardo Gomez Ferragud serves as an Associate Professor at the University of Valencia's Faculty of Teacher Training, specializing in the Didactics of Experimental Sciences within the EXPERIMENTAL A departmental unit.

He holds a doctorate from the Universitat de València (2014) with his thesis "Estudios sobre el establecimiento de analogías" (Studies on the Establishment of Analogies), supervised by Dr. Vicente Sanjosé and Dr. Joan Josep Solaz Portolés.

His research centers on Science Education frameworks, particularly examining how teachers develop Pedagogical Content Knowledge for experimental sciences instruction. As a core member of the "CDC Pedagogical school content knowledge: grounds of the teachers' instructional analysis and action" research group, he investigates the cognitive foundations of science teaching practices and instructional decision-making processes in classroom settings. This work directly informs teacher training methodologies for physics, chemistry, and biology education.

The CDC research group provides the primary collaborative environment for his investigations into the epistemological and pedagogical structures underlying effective science instruction.
