Lots of money has been spent on ICT . What are the results regarding learning?

But is the right question to get the right answer ?

Reasoning and context

I do not believe

that learning results must get better when using ICT;

nor that ICT is a magic weapon.

To find the right questions (also some answers)

we developed an online system called eLEMÉR.

What can eLEMÉR do? He serves

  • as a self-evaluation tool for schools,
  • also as a monitoring tool for the country.

I believe that

  • the way of learning outside and inside schools must get closer;
  • young people get more able to answer the expectations of modern life if they are taught how to use ICT purposfully.

  • the methods are appropriate,
  • teachers are comfortable with using it,
  • they know why and how they and their Ss sould use it.

I believe that ICT can only do about better learning if

The eLEMÉR self-evaluation system

What similar systems do we know about?

  • The English Self-evaluation Framework by the former BECTA, now NAACE;
  • The Microsoft Innovative Toolkit;

Other knowledge sources used

  • UNESCO/IFIP categories of school status;
  • EU/EUN survey called STEPS, 2009;
  • Evaluation framework by EUN PLA, 2009;
  • InfoDev Handbook by the World Bank, 2005

eEducation Summer Symposium

Alpan-Adria-Universität

No Child without Digital Competencies

Results are shown

  • as a written report with diagrams
  • compatible with the ICT strategy template
  • years can be compared
  • school can be compared to country

  • 100 indicators
  • four categories (learning, teaching, organisation, infrastructure) and
  • 14 sub-categories
  • Possible answers: Not applicable, False, Partly true, Almost true, True

Introduction

strong policy+strong support or

week policy and strong support

Austria: 38% of the surveyed Ss go to such kind of schools

% of Ss going to digitally supportive schools - Survey of Schools, ICT in Education

Digitally supportive

High competence and attitude, high access, low obstacles

Austria: 26% of the surveyed Ss have such teachers

% of Ss taught by digitally supportive teachers

Digitally supportive

Digitally supportive school 38/41%

Digitally supportive teacher 26/25%

Digitally supportive student 22/35%

High access and frequent use at home and at school

Austria: 22 % of the surveyed Ss (reason: low access or use at school)

% of digitally competent and supportive students

Digitally confident and supportive

low access/use at school and high access/use at home (student profile 2, )

Survey of Schools, ICT in Education

EUN - EC

I am going to talk about eLEMÉR who

  • helps us find what schools are doing with ICT
  • helps schools find out what they can do with ICT
  • http://ikt.ofi.hu/english/

False, Partly true, Almost true, True

http://ikt.ofi.hu/english

It has been developed

  • from very little money (less than 40 thousand Euros)
  • by three enthusiastic people (Nóra Németh Tartsay, Éva Tibor)
  • with the help of several others.

eLEMÉR is a men's name

It recalls 'e-measuring' or 'digital measurement'

He became a familiar figure for Hungarian schools

since 2010 when he was born

Survey of Schools: ICT in Education, European Commission

Benchmarking Access, Use and Attitudes to Technology in Europe's Schools

Conclusion

Success for Austria

Methods of self-evaluation and data collection

Data is in accordance with other surveys (ESSIE, Survey of Schools by EC).

Main lessons of the years

  • Distance access (VLE) is crucial (learning anytime anywhere);
  • More creative and professional use of ICT is needed;
  • Promotion of 21st century skills is essential;
  • Teachers should collaborate and network more for CPD;
  • A reward system would generate more attention.

  • Schools do the self-evaluation voluntarily
  • Ministry sends out letters once a year
  • Snapshot: 28, February, eLEMER's nameday

Suggestions for data collection

  • Using the personal online questionnaires
  • No ICT coordinator / IT teacher
  • Agreed answers / values based on proofs

Adminstrators' site

  • calculates the basic country results automatically;
  • shows the order of the indicators;
  • creates a written report same as for schools;
  • gives the list of schools in the order of the overall results ;
  • collects all the feedback on the system in a file.

Results of the monitoring process

Infrastructure would allow for more developed use.
