The present study examines the pedagogical-content knowledge (PCK), content knowledge (CK), pedagogical knowledge (PK), and their impact on teacher education. Also, the learning environments are compared to investigate the effect of providing PK and CK on the development of PCK, providing this knowledge for the development of PK and educational content, and the effect of integrating the PK and educational content with PCK on the development of PCK. In addition, the present study examines the effectiveness of several learning environments with a quasi-experimental design. The research sample consisted of 170 first-year English as a foreign language (EFL) students who participated in this study using Eitaa messenger app. Quantitative pencil-paper tools including short answer and multiple-choice items were used to measure these three areas of knowledge. The tools were developed with feedback from educational researchers and school teachers to ensure their content validity. The reliability of the tools was tested using inter-rater reliability and internal consistency. ANCOVA was used to analyze the data on all research questions. The present study showed that when courses on the PCK, CK and PK are included in the curriculum, the professional teacher knowledge is enhanced. Also, considering the results, it is not that much important whether these knowledge areas are presented in an integrated or separate manner, meaning that each of these three knowledge areas can have its own courses separately or in combination.
