ICT in Education Policy: Catch up or lead the way?
II. Policy Planning: Orienting ICT towards educational results ICT in Education Policy: Catch up or lead the way? ICT in Education policy, is NOT to follow the ICT trends, is to set the educational trends inspired and enabled by ICT
19
ICT in Education Policy:
Catch up or lead the way? ICT in Education policy planning, it is NOT to drive education to follow ICT trends or let it driven by ICT. it is to build education to harness ICT. you do so, education and ICT win-win; you fail, education will be consumed or misled by ICT
20
Scope of a National ICT in Education Master Plan
ICT in education projects are well placed in national education policy & strategies, supported by public funds and implemented and monitored by responsible agencies: by governments as cost-effective education delivery media for all throughout life (EFA) by administrators as efficient educational management system (EMIS) by teachers as pedagogy-enabling tools for student-centered pedagogy (Beyond EFA) by TVET sector as emerging subject areas for ICT skill trainings (21st Century Skills) 20

Innovative Teaching and Learning (ITL) Research
This is the second year of a multi-year global research program designed to investigate the factors that promote the transformation of teaching practices and the impact those changes have on students’ learning outcomes across a broad range of country contexts. These selected preliminary results are based on teacher and school leader survey data from Finland, Indonesia, Russia, Senegal, Mexico, and England. Please note that datasets are not yet complete, so reported results may change. Final reports from this year will include survey data from Australia as well as data from other methods (LASW and qualitative data). Future years of this project will build on the methods described here to build tools for schools to reflect on their own practices and to make the definitions of “innovative teaching and learning” concrete and actionable for teachers. 47 47
48
How do we measure innovative teaching?
The teacher survey contains groups of related items—scales—related to each of the elements of innovative teaching practices from the ITL Research conceptual framework.* * Project-based learning is not included because the scale used in the pilot year did not perform well. The scales describe teacher-reported frequency of each of the practices listed in the table. Sub-construct scores are combined to represent scores on the 3 main constructs (student-centered pedagogies, extension of learning beyond the classroom, and ICT integration). These, in turn, are combined and weighted equally to create an overall index of Innovative Teaching Practices. Innovative Teaching Practices Index Construct Sub-construct # of items Student-centered pedagogies Knowledge-building 6 Self-regulation and assessment 4 Small group work 3 Personalized and individualized learning Extension of learning beyond the classroom Extended classroom community 7 Global awareness/ cultural understanding ICT integrated into teaching and learning Teacher ICT use 11 Student ICT use 14 Teacher survey: Student-centered pedagogies Knowledge building: 3.1 For your target class, how often do your students do the following? d. Support their own ideas with numbers, facts, or other relevant information f. Analyze information from multiple sources to develop a report or a solution to a problem g. Combine information from multiple subject areas h. Build their own understanding using information they gather Self regulation: 3.6 For your target class, how often do your students do the following? Assess the quality of work they have completed Give feedback to peers or assess other students' work Monitor their own progress toward the completion of an activity Revise their own work using peer feedback or self-assessment before receiving a final grade Small group work: 3.3 For your target class, how often do your students do the following? Completing a specific task or discussing their work Creating joint products that include contributions from each student Presenting group work to the class Personalized and individualized learning: 3.7 For your target class, how often do your students do the following? a) Allow students to choose their own topics of learning or questions to pursue? b) Allow students to choose how they will accomplish a task or how they will demonstrate what they have learned? c) Provide students with opportunities to learn and/or work at their own pace? d) Adjust or repeat instruction to respond to students' levels of understanding? e) Adjust assignments or class structure for individual students based on their knowledge, skills, or learning needs? f) Select topics, activities, or examples that are relevant to students’ lives outside school? Extension of learning beyond the classroom Extended classroom community: 3.8 For your target class, how often do your students do the following? Consult with experts from outside the school on an assignment or activity? b) Work with peers from outside the school? c) Involve parents or family members in an assignment or activity? d) Listen to a guest speaker or work with a community member in the classroom? e) Go on a field trip or visit a location outside the school? f) Demonstrate their work to an audience other than their classmates? g) Produce something for use outside the classroom (for example, an exhibit for a local museum)? Global awareness/cultural understanding: 3.9 For your target class, how often do your students do the following? Engage with issues related to global interdependency (for example, global environment trends, global market economy)? c) Study information about other countries or cultures? d) Study issues directly relevant to their family or community? ICT integration into teaching and learning Teacher ICT use scale: Q4.8 Now think about your use of ICT both in and outside of the classroom during the past year. How often do you use ICT to do the following? a. Present information or give class instruction to students b. Conduct classroom demonstrations (for example, computer-based simulations, virtual labs) c. Do research (for example, Internet search) and plan a lesson d.

Innovative teaching practices and students’ 21st century skills
Teachers who report more frequent use of innovative teaching practices also tend to report that their students exhibit stronger 21st century skills. Teacher survey: 21st century skills scale Q3.10 In your opinion, how skilled on average are students in your target class in the following areas? (Choose one box in each row.) a. Working in small groups to complete a task together b. Developing a persuasive argument that is based on supporting evidence c. Planning the steps they will take to accomplish a complex task d. Developing an innovative solution to a problem with no defined answer e. Using technology or the Internet to find information f. Analyzing information from multiple sources g. Selecting the appropriate technology tool for a task h. Evaluating the quality of their own work Scale reliability: very strong , 0.83 and above All results are significant. Survey data show a strong correlation between teacher reports of their own innovative teaching practices and their estimates of their students’ 21st century skills. Analysis of actual learning activities and student work (to come) will be a more objective measure of this relationship. 49 49

School-level factors associated with innovative teaching practices
The teacher survey measured teacher reports of a number of school-level practices and policies that might be related to innovative teaching. Of these: Frequency of teacher collaboration had the strongest association with innovative teaching practices, followed by Degree of school-level support for teacher collaboration, then Incentives and appraisals for innovative teaching. 50
51
Frequency of teacher collaboration
51 Frequency of teacher collaboration Teachers who report more frequent collaboration tended to score higher on the innovative teaching practices index. These charts describe collaboration about instruction, and collaborative practices related to continuous improvement. Collaboration about instruction Q7.2 How often do you collaborate with colleagues at your school in the following ways? (choose one box in each row.) Share new ideas on effective teaching methods Share and discuss the quality of students' work products Plan lessons and units together Discuss student achievement score data with other teachers to make instructional decisions Co-teach with another teacher at my school Collaboration about culture of continuous improvement Q7.2. How often do you collaborate with colleagues at your school in the following ways? (choose one box in each row.) Share and discuss the quality of students’ work products Think critically about our instructional practice at this school Source: teacher survey 51
52
Support for teacher collaboration
Teachers who reported that their schools offered high levels of support for professional collaboration tended to show higher levels of innovative teaching. Q7.3. To what extent do you agree with the following statements about the level of support for teacher collaboration at your school? (choose one) Are encouraged to work together to improve teaching and learning Have class schedules that are arranged to support team teaching Have scheduled time in the school calendar to work together Are encouraged to observe other teachers’ classrooms The school leader survey measured the level of support for collaboration as well. Findings were similar to the teacher survey in Indonesia, Russia, and the combined data. Q13 (SL survey) What supports for teacher collaboration are in place at your school? (choose one) Teachers observe other teachers’ classrooms Teachers are expected to carry out team teaching. Class schedules are arranged to facilitate team teaching Time is schedulexd in the school calendar for teachers to work together (for lesson planning, reviewing student work, etc) There is a formal peer network or mentoring program within the school Source: teacher survey 52
53
Incentives and appraisals for innovative teaching
53 Teachers who reported that their schools offered incentives and appraisals for innovative teaching practice tended to show higher levels of innovative teaching. Q7.4 There are incentives for teachers to explore or implement new teaching practices Teachers are rewarded or recognized for improving their teaching practices Teacher appraisals emphasize new teaching practices 53
54
Student access to computers in the classroom
Student access to at least one computer in the classroom (desktop or laptop) is a strong predictor of ICT integration into teaching and learning. The relationships of access to student-centered pedagogies and learning beyond the classroom are also positive trends, but the relationships are not significant. 54

UNESCO ICT Competency Framework for Teachers (ICT CFT)
To help Member States develop national ICT Competency Standard for Teachers and provide guidelines for planning teacher education programmes, UNESCO has developed the ICT-CFT Approach Components POLICY AWARENESS POLICY UNDERSTANDING POLICY INNOVATIONI TECHNOLOGY LITERACY KNOWLEDGE DEEPENING KNOWLEDGE CREATION POLICY AND VISION CURRICULUM AND ASSESSMENT BASIC KNOWLEDGE KNOWLEDGE APPLICATION 21ST CENTURY SKILLS PEDAGOGY TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION COMPLEX PROBLEM SOLVING SLEF MANAGEMENT ICT BASIC TOOLS COMPLEX TOOLS PERVASIVE TOOLS ORGANIZATION & ADMINISTRATION STANDARD CLASSROOMS COLLABORATIVE GROUPS LEARNING ORGANIZATIONS TEACHER PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT DIGITAL LITERACY MANAGER AND COACH TEACHER AS MODEL LEARNER
59
How to apply the CFT: Localizing UNESCO ICT CFT or developing your own standard?
ICT-CFT and E-Readiness: ICT Competency Standards should not be taken as mandatory standards for teachers in developing countries without sufficient e- readiness ICT CFT and Teachers Pedagogical Content Knowledge: Teachers’ ICT qualifications should be pivoted around pedagogy. Teachers’ ICT competency is not the determinant factor for knowledge deepening and knowledge creation. Policy environment and other enabling factors are more critical.
