The DTAMS assessments (
http://louisville.edu/education/research/centers/crmstd/diag_sci_assess_middle_teachers.html)
include a subscale for pedagogical content knowledge, but are really
intended for middle school science teachers.  The physical science
assessment might meet your needs, however, depending on the content
background of your teachers and the content of the course.  Test
administration is free but scoring costs $10/test.
