3. BACKGROUND
 Teachers need to be able to make use of ICT to supervise
learners.
 Teacher training is essential as it enables teachers
developing required ICT competences.
BUT
 Teachers often run into difficulties to locate appropriate
training resources aligned to their competences.

4. PROBLEM STATEMENT
 This review represents the first milestone of an ongoing
research on teacher recommendation systems towards
recommending relevant training materials aligned to a
specific ICT competency framework.
 [Sergis and Samspon, 2016] asserted that the elicitation
of teachers’ ICT competences profile is an essential
component of an educational recommender system.

10. CONCLUSIONS
 11 papers selected and reviewed
 For each paper, we identified :
 the tool’s objective,
 the competency framework,
 the assessment method and
 the tool deployment method.
 It is just the first step on the way to the development of
an assessment tool of teachers’ ICT competency.
10

11. FUTURE WORK
 Build on previous research towards proposing an
ICT-CFT recommender system for teachers that
recommends relevant training materials aligned
to the UNESCO ICT-CFT competency framework
and based on the assessment of their ICT
competencies and profiles.
