1. The document summarizes findings from the Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) 2013, which surveyed over 100,000 teachers and school leaders from over 6,500 schools in more than 30 countries and economies.
2. It finds that most school leaders engage in both instructional leadership, such as supporting teacher collaboration and development, and distributed leadership, through involving stakeholders in decision making. However, countries differ in the balance of these approaches among their school leaders.
3. School leadership is linked to stronger professional learning communities among teachers, as measured by factors like collaborative activities and shared responsibilities. Instructional leadership specifically relates to more reflective dialogue, deprivatized practice, and collective focus on student learning.

Understanding teachers and school leaders as “professionals” means having high expectations of them as advanced knowledge workers. It means they should not only conduct their work in an effective manner, but also strive to improve their skills throughout their career, collaborate with colleagues and parents to work towards school improvement,and think creatively about the challenges they face. However, if we expect teachers and schools leaders to act as professionals, we should treat them as such. This report aims to provide an in-depth analysis of teachers’ and school leaders’ perceptions of the value of their profession, their work-related well-being and stress, and their satisfaction with their working conditions. It also offers a description of teachers’ and school leaders’ contractual arrangements, opportunities to engage in professional tasks such as collaborative teamwork, autonomous decision making, and leadership practices.Based on the voice of teachers and school leaders, the report offers a series of policy recommendations to help strengthen the professionalisation of teaching careers.The OECD Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) is the largest international survey asking teachers and school leaders about their working conditions and learning environments, and provides a barometer of the profession every five years.

Scotland's Curriculum for Excellence: Into the Future. Report presentationBeatriz Pont
Students in Scotland (UK) engage in learning through Curriculum for Excellence (CfE), which aims to provide them with a holistic, coherent, and future-oriented approach to learning between the ages of 3 and 18. CfE offers an inspiring and widely supported philosophy of education. Schools design their own curriculum based on a common framework which allows for effective curricular practices. In 2020, Scotland invited the OECD to assess the implementation of CfE in primary and secondary schools to understand how school curricula have been designed and implemented in recent years. This report analyses the progress made with CfE since 2015, building upon several months of observations in Scotland, the existing literature and experiences from other OECD countries. The OECD analysis and recommendations aim to support Scotland as it further enhances CfE to achieve its potential for the present and future of its learners. Just as Scotland’s Curriculum for Excellence was among the pioneers of 21st century learning, its most recent developments hold valuable lessons for other education systems and their own curriculum policies.

TALIS (Teaching and Learning International Survey) EduSkills OECD
Effective teaching and teachers are key to producing high performing students. TALIS is the first international programme to focus on the learning environment and the working conditions of teachers in schools. TALIS fills important information gaps in the international comparisons of education systems. It offers an opportunity for teachers and school principals to give their input into education analysis and policy development in some key policy areas. Cross-country analysis from TALIS allows countries to identify other countries facing similar challenges and to learn from other policy approaches.
TALIS 2018 - Teacher professionalism in the face of COVID-19 (London, 23 Marc...EduSkills OECD
The world is currently facing a health pandemic and sanitary crisis without precedent in our recent history.
This has affected the normal functioning of education systems worldwide. Nearly all of the 48 countries and economies participating in TALIS are now facing mass and prolonged school closures on all or significant parts of their territory, and UNESCO estimates that 1.25 billion learners are impacted worldwide – i.e. nearly 73% of total enrolments.
This is a major external shock on the operations of our schools and the work of our teachers, who have had to move to distance and digital education offerings within a few days. It is also a major shock and challenge for parents who have been turned into home-schoolers overnight, with no training for this!
This is an odd timing to present the findings of a report depicting the functioning of schools and the work of teachers “before Covid-19”. And although there are lots of interesting things in this report, this is not a priority for today.
Today, I would like to reflect instead on how school and teachers can adapt to these dire circumstances and carry forward their teaching.
Today, I would like to focus on TALIS findings that can help educational systems as they deal with the crisis, and think forward in working out possible strategies to cope with these circumstances.
Today, I would like to convey hope that we can count on teachers to rise to the challenges.
The Education Policy Outlook 2018 - Putting Student Learning at the CentreEduSkills OECD
Taking the students’ perspective, Education Policy Outlook 2018: Putting Student Learning at the Centre analyses the evolution of key education priorities and key education policies in 43 education systems. It compares more recent developments in education policy ecosystems (mainly between 2015 and 2017) with various education policies adopted between 2008 and 2014. This report includes around 200 policies spanning from early childhood education and care (ECEC) to higher education and lifelong learning on topics such as: improving the quality and access to ECEC, promoting education success for all students, reducing the negative impact of some system-level policies and practices, increasing completion of upper secondary education, developing quality vocational education and training, enhancing the quality of tertiary education, supporting transitions across education pathways and the labour market.

Results from the 2018 cycle explore and examine the various dimensions of teacher and school leader professionalism across education systems.
Teachers are the most important resource in today’s schools. In every country, teachers’ salaries and training represent the greatest share of expenditure in education. And this investment in teachers can have significant returns: research shows that being taught by the best teachers can make a real difference in the learning and life outcomes of otherwise similar students. Teachers, in other words, are not interchangeable workers in some sort of industrial assembly line; individual teachers can change lives – and better teachers are crucial to improving the education that schools provide. Improving the effectiveness, efficiency and equity of schooling depends, in large measure, on ensuring that competent people want to work as teachers, that their teaching is of high quality and that high-quality teaching is provided to all students. This report, building on data from the Indicators of Education Systems (INES) programme, the Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) and the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), explores three teacher-policy questions: How do the best-performing countries select, develop, evaluate and compensate teachers? How does teacher sorting across schools affect the equity of education systems? And how can countries attract and retain talented men and women to teaching?
The OECD Teachers’ Professional Learning (TPL) Study project overview 2020EduSkills OECD
This document provides an overview of the OECD Teachers' Professional Learning Study, which examines policies that can support teachers' professional growth and development from initial teacher preparation through continuing professional learning. The study has two strands: Strand I focuses on initial teacher preparation and the first years of teaching, while Strand II examines continuing professional learning. The study uses a combination of literature reviews, country background reports, policy diagnostics, and stakeholder engagement to identify challenges and emerging principles in different systems. The goal is to support peer learning and provide evidence to inform policies that can strengthen teachers' professional learning over their entire careers.
1. The document summarizes findings from TALIS 2013, a survey of over 100,000 teachers in over 30 countries. It discusses teachers' professional development needs, barriers to participation, classroom practices, job satisfaction, and perceptions of the teaching profession.
2. TALIS 2018 will survey teachers in 45+ countries, including new participants from Latin America, on topics like instructional practices, school leadership, professional development, and diversity. It aims to provide insights to help support and retain teachers.
3. TALIS is a collaboration between OECD, governments, the European Commission, and teachers' unions to better understand teachers and learning environments worldwide.
OECD School Resources Review - Working and Learning TogetherEduSkills OECD
The staff working in schools are the most important resource for today’s education systems, both educationally and financially. This report aims to provide guidance for the design of human resource policies that strengthen, recognise and preserve the positive impact that teachers, school leaders and other school staff have on their students. It offers an in-depth analysis of how human resource policies can make the best use of available resources to create supportive working environments and build both individual and collective professional capacity in schools. This includes the design of entry requirements, career structures, salary schedules and working time arrangements to attract, retain and motivate high-quality staff; the effective and equitable matching of staff with schools through fair and transparent staff funding and recruitment; and informed investments in professional learning, from initial preparation to continuing development. Throughout its analysis, the report looks at implementation challenges and considers under which conditions human resource policy reforms are most likely to have the desired effects on schools and their staff. This report is the third in a series of thematic comparative reports bringing together findings from the OECD School Resources Review. This report was co-funded by the European Commission.
Vocational education and training (VET) plays a central role in preparing young people for work, developing the skills of adults and responding to the labour-market needs of the economy. Teachers and leaders in VET can have an immediate and positive influence on learners’ skills, employability and career development. However, when compared to general academic programmes, there is limited evidence on the characteristics of teachers and institutional leaders in VET and the policies and practices of attracting and preparing them. VET teachers require a mix of pedagogical skills and occupational knowledge and experience, and need to keep these up to date to reflect changing skill needs in the labour market and evolving teaching and learning environments. This report fills the knowledge gap on teachers and leaders in VET, and produces new insights into what strategies and policies can help develop and maintain a well-prepared workforce. It zooms in on VET teacher shortages; strategies for attracting and retaining teachers; initial training and professional development opportunities for teachers; the use of innovative technologies and pedagogical strategies; and the important role of institutional leaders and strategies for better preparing and supporting them
Schooling Redesigned - Towards Innovative Learning SystemsEduSkills OECD
What does redesigning schools and schooling through innovation mean in practice? How might it be brought about? These questions have inspired an influential international reflection on “Innovative Learning Environments” (ILE) led by the OECD. This reflection has already resulted in publications on core design principles and frameworks and on learning leadership. Now the focus extends from exceptional examples towards wider initiatives and system transformation. The report draws as core material on analyses of initiatives specially submitted by some 25 countries, regions and networks. It describes common strengths around a series of Cs: Culture change, Clarifying focus, Capacity creation, Collaboration & Co-operation, Communication technologies & platforms, and Change agents. It suggests that growing innovative learning at scale needs approaches rooted in the complexity of 21st century society and “learning eco-systems”. It argues that a flourishing middle level of change around networks and learning communities provides the platform on which broader transformation can be built.
This report is not a compendium of “best practices” but a succinct analysis presenting original concepts and approaches, illustrated by concrete cases from around the world. It will be especially useful for those designing, researching or engaging in educational change, whether in schools, policy, communities or wider networks.
Andreas Schleicher - Director for the Directorate of Education and Skills, OECD. Poverty is not destiny The country where migrants go to school matters more than the country where they came from. Technology can amplify innovative teaching. Countries where students have stronger beliefs in their abilities perform better in mathematics.
The design of school learning environments can foster, or hinder, the teaching and learning of 21st century skills. By the time students complete their compulsory education, they will have spent many thousands of hours within school buildings. The same holds true for their teachers and school leaders who all too often are obliged to adapt to existing layouts in schools, rather than shape them actively.
The OECD School User Survey: Improving Learning Spaces Together gives voice to those who use schools on a daily basis. This unique OECD tool consists of three self-assessment questionnaires designed for students, teachers and school leaders. They can be used to collect and triangulate evidence on the actual use of learning spaces, as well as to solicit user perspectives.
Survey results can be used at the school level to support continuous improvement and the intelligent use or refurbishment of educational facilities. They can provide deeper insights into how physical learning environments shape teaching practices and affect students’ learning outcomes and well-being.
Fifty-six percent Indians born in
the Gen Y period, feel that the brand value of a person’s educational alma mater has a significant impact on the career growth opportunities over the course of time. This prima facie, sounds rather obvious as institutions and corporations to a certain extent tend to contribute to this halo around students and professionals from prestigious educational institutes.
But does one’s alma mater play such a significant role in career development? Are alumni of prestigious schools in our country a privileged lot? Do they have it any easier than their counterparts? Or are there other factors of merit besides the brand value of one’s education at play in corporate society?
These are some of the answers we will address in this paper.

The document summarizes education reforms across OECD countries from 2008-2014. It finds that OECD countries adopted over 450 reforms in this period, focusing on areas like equity, quality, preparing students for the future, school improvement, evaluation and assessment, governance and funding. However, countries struggled with implementing coherent reform strategies and ensuring reforms reached classrooms. The document also provides examples of reforms in specific countries like Australia, Ireland, and Sweden in this period.
International Summit on the Teaching Profession - Framing the IssuesEduSkills OECD
by Andreas Schleicher, Director for Education and Skills, OECD. - If the quality of an education system can never exceed the quality of its teachers, then countries need to do all they can to build a high-quality teaching force. Teaching Excellence through Professional Learning and Policy Reform: Lessons from around the World, the background report to the sixth International Summit on the Teaching Profession, describes the knowledge, skills and character qualities common to the most effective teachers. It examines the education policies and practices that help teachers to acquire these tools, including through induction and mentoring programmes, ongoing professional development activities, student assessments, and collaboration with colleagues. The publication also discusses the importance of involving all stakeholders – especially teachers – in the process of education reform.

This report, building on data from the Indicators of Education Systems (INES) programme, the Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) and the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), explores three teacher-policy questions: How do the best-performing countries select, develop, evaluate and compensate teachers? How does teacher sorting across schools affect the equity of education systems? And how can countries attract and retain talented men and women to teaching?
The OECD Teachers’ Professional Learning (TPL) Study project overview 2020EduSkills OECD
This document provides an overview of the OECD Teachers' Professional Learning Study, which examines policies that can support teachers' professional growth and development from initial teacher preparation through continuing professional learning. The study has two strands: Strand I focuses on initial teacher preparation and the first years of teaching, while Strand II examines continuing professional learning. The study uses a combination of literature reviews, country background reports, policy diagnostics, and stakeholder engagement to identify challenges and emerging principles in different systems. The goal is to support peer learning and provide evidence to inform policies that can strengthen teachers' professional learning over their entire careers.
1. The document summarizes findings from TALIS 2013, a survey of over 100,000 teachers in over 30 countries. It discusses teachers' professional development needs, barriers to participation, classroom practices, job satisfaction, and perceptions of the teaching profession.
2. TALIS 2018 will survey teachers in 45+ countries, including new participants from Latin America, on topics like instructional practices, school leadership, professional development, and diversity. It aims to provide insights to help support and retain teachers.
3. TALIS is a collaboration between OECD, governments, the European Commission, and teachers' unions to better understand teachers and learning environments worldwide.
OECD School Resources Review - Working and Learning TogetherEduSkills OECD
The staff working in schools are the most important resource for today’s education systems, both educationally and financially. This report aims to provide guidance for the design of human resource policies that strengthen, recognise and preserve the positive impact that teachers, school leaders and other school staff have on their students. It offers an in-depth analysis of how human resource policies can make the best use of available resources to create supportive working environments and build both individual and collective professional capacity in schools. This includes the design of entry requirements, career structures, salary schedules and working time arrangements to attract, retain and motivate high-quality staff; the effective and equitable matching of staff with schools through fair and transparent staff funding and recruitment; and informed investments in professional learning, from initial preparation to continuing development. Throughout its analysis, the report looks at implementation challenges and considers under which conditions human resource policy reforms are most likely to have the desired effects on schools and their staff. This report is the third in a series of thematic comparative reports bringing together findings from the OECD School Resources Review. This report was co-funded by the European Commission.
Vocational education and training (VET) plays a central role in preparing young people for work, developing the skills of adults and responding to the labour-market needs of the economy. Teachers and leaders in VET can have an immediate and positive influence on learners’ skills, employability and career development. However, when compared to general academic programmes, there is limited evidence on the characteristics of teachers and institutional leaders in VET and the policies and practices of attracting and preparing them. VET teachers require a mix of pedagogical skills and occupational knowledge and experience, and need to keep these up to date to reflect changing skill needs in the labour market and evolving teaching and learning environments. This report fills the knowledge gap on teachers and leaders in VET, and produces new insights into what strategies and policies can help develop and maintain a well-prepared workforce. It zooms in on VET teacher shortages; strategies for attracting and retaining teachers; initial training and professional development opportunities for teachers; the use of innovative technologies and pedagogical strategies; and the important role of institutional leaders and strategies for better preparing and supporting them
Schooling Redesigned - Towards Innovative Learning SystemsEduSkills OECD
What does redesigning schools and schooling through innovation mean in practice? How might it be brought about? These questions have inspired an influential international reflection on “Innovative Learning Environments” (ILE) led by the OECD. This reflection has already resulted in publications on core design principles and frameworks and on learning leadership. Now the focus extends from exceptional examples towards wider initiatives and system transformation. The report draws as core material on analyses of initiatives specially submitted by some 25 countries, regions and networks. It describes common strengths around a series of Cs: Culture change, Clarifying focus, Capacity creation, Collaboration & Co-operation, Communication technologies & platforms, and Change agents. It suggests that growing innovative learning at scale needs approaches rooted in the complexity of 21st century society and “learning eco-systems”. It argues that a flourishing middle level of change around networks and learning communities provides the platform on which broader transformation can be built.
This report is not a compendium of “best practices” but a succinct analysis presenting original concepts and approaches, illustrated by concrete cases from around the world. It will be especially useful for those designing, researching or engaging in educational change, whether in schools, policy, communities or wider networks.
Andreas Schleicher - Director for the Directorate of Education and Skills, OECD. Poverty is not destiny The country where migrants go to school matters more than the country where they came from. Technology can amplify innovative teaching. Countries where students have stronger beliefs in their abilities perform better in mathematics.
The design of school learning environments can foster, or hinder, the teaching and learning of 21st century skills. By the time students complete their compulsory education, they will have spent many thousands of hours within school buildings. The same holds true for their teachers and school leaders who all too often are obliged to adapt to existing layouts in schools, rather than shape them actively.
The OECD School User Survey: Improving Learning Spaces Together gives voice to those who use schools on a daily basis. This unique OECD tool consists of three self-assessment questionnaires designed for students, teachers and school leaders. They can be used to collect and triangulate evidence on the actual use of learning spaces, as well as to solicit user perspectives.
Survey results can be used at the school level to support continuous improvement and the intelligent use or refurbishment of educational facilities. They can provide deeper insights into how physical learning environments shape teaching practices and affect students’ learning outcomes and well-being.
Fifty-six percent Indians born in
the Gen Y period, feel that the brand value of a person’s educational alma mater has a significant impact on the career growth opportunities over the course of time. This prima facie, sounds rather obvious as institutions and corporations to a certain extent tend to contribute to this halo around students and professionals from prestigious educational institutes.
But does one’s alma mater play such a significant role in career development? Are alumni of prestigious schools in our country a privileged lot? Do they have it any easier than their counterparts? Or are there other factors of merit besides the brand value of one’s education at play in corporate society?
These are some of the answers we will address in this paper.

The document summarizes education reforms across OECD countries from 2008-2014. It finds that OECD countries adopted over 450 reforms in this period, focusing on areas like equity, quality, preparing students for the future, school improvement, evaluation and assessment, governance and funding. However, countries struggled with implementing coherent reform strategies and ensuring reforms reached classrooms. The document also provides examples of reforms in specific countries like Australia, Ireland, and Sweden in this period.
International Summit on the Teaching Profession - Framing the IssuesEduSkills OECD
by Andreas Schleicher, Director for Education and Skills, OECD. - If the quality of an education system can never exceed the quality of its teachers, then countries need to do all they can to build a high-quality teaching force. Teaching Excellence through Professional Learning and Policy Reform: Lessons from around the World, the background report to the sixth International Summit on the Teaching Profession, describes the knowledge, skills and character qualities common to the most effective teachers. It examines the education policies and practices that help teachers to acquire these tools, including through induction and mentoring programmes, ongoing professional development activities, student assessments, and collaboration with colleagues. The publication also discusses the importance of involving all stakeholders – especially teachers – in the process of education reform.

This document discusses how open educational resources (OER) have the potential to drive innovation in education systems but have not yet delivered systemic change. It argues that OER are not just a technological innovation but can enable social and educational innovation through technology. For OER to unlock their innovation potential, education policies must align with and utilize OER to address education systems' innovation needs. The document examines how education systems may be getting "out of tune" with the changing skills demands and calls for innovating learning environments and conditions to better support learning and create learning societies. It suggests OER could help by enabling new forms of learning, teachers' collaboration, reducing costs, improving resource quality and access, and lowering barriers to learning, but that
This document discusses how open educational resources (OER) can help drive innovation in education. It makes three key points:
1) OER have the potential to foster new forms of 21st century learning by making learners more active and collaborative. However, most OER currently just supplement existing teaching and do not enable innovative pedagogies.
2) OER can support teacher professional development by providing training resources and opportunities for collaboration. However, collaboration remains a challenge for many teachers.
3) Educational policies can help realize OER's potential by funding repositories, supporting communities of practice, and promoting OER's use in schools. More research is also needed on OER's impacts.
The document provides an introduction and overview of Scotland and the Scottish Borders, as well as background information on the Curriculum for Excellence initiative and Determined to Succeed strategy.

Key aspects of the curriculum framework like the four capacities, experiences and outcomes, and partnership approach are summarized.
This document discusses findings from the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) tests regarding high-performing education systems. It identifies several lessons learned, including that successful systems have clear goals aligned across the system, prioritize high-quality teachers, provide autonomy to schools balanced with accountability, and maintain coherence across policies over time. The document also notes patterns among countries regarding reading performance, socioeconomic factors, teacher compensation, and other metrics assessed by PISA.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can

– Collection of comparative data and
production of indicators
– Benchmarking
– Best practice
– Peer learning
– Policy analysis
– Advice and assistance
Improving the quality of education
3. 3 PISA in brief
• Over half a million students…
– representing 28 million 15-year-olds in 65 countries/economies
… took an internationally agreed 2-hour test…
– Goes beyond testing whether students can
reproduce what they were taught…
… to assess students’ capacity to extrapolate from what they know
and creatively apply their knowledge in novel situations
– Mathematics, reading, science, problem-solving, financial literacy
– Total of 390 minutes of assessment material
… and responded to questions on…
– their personal background, their schools
and their engagement with learning and school
• Parents, principals and system leaders provided data on…
– school policies, practices, resources and institutional factors that
help explain performance differences .

…representing more than 4 million teachers in 34 countries…
Over 100 thousand randomly selected lower secondary
teachers and their school leaders from over 6500 schools
…took an internationally-agreed survey about the working
conditions and learning environments in their schools…
…responding to questions about their background, their teaching
practices, support and development, their relationships with
colleagues and students and the leadership in their schools

1818 Drivers of job satisfaction
The more frequently that
teachers report participating
in collaborative practices
with their colleagues,
the higher their level of
self-efficacy.
The same is true
for job satisfaction.
19. • Education has to manage a constant
tension between quality control and
innovation
• We need to be sure that all schools achieve
minimum standards and that is achieved
through evaluation and assessment
• But we also need to be sure that systems
have scope to change and develop
Quality and innovation
20. “The Nature of Learning: Using Research to Inspire
Practice” OECD Publications, Sept. 2010, 338pp.
21. ‘Innovative Learning Environments’ 2013
21
Based especially on 40 case
studies from 20 countries, (plus
85 self-report notes)
Develops and presents the ILE
framework
Extended extracts -
innovations are ‘in their own
words’, & bring the concepts
and principles to life
22. The Learning Principles – environments
should:
• Make learning central, encourage engagement, and be where learners
come to understand themselves as learners
• Ensure that learning is social and often collaborative
• Be highly attuned to learners’ motivations and the importance of emotions
• Be acutely sensitive to individual differences including in prior knowledge
• Be demanding for each learner but without excessive overload
• Use assessments consistent with its aims, with strong emphasis on
formative feedback
• Promote horizontal connectedness across activities and subjects, in-and
out-of-school
Moreover, all should be present not one or two.
22
24. • To investigate the pedagogical knowledge
of teachers and the knowledge dynamics
in the teaching profession.
• What is pedagogical knowledge?
– The specialised knowledge of teachers for
creating effective teaching and learning
environments for all students.
Project Objectives
25. Research Question #1
Science of Learning, including the neurosciences
• huge progress in understanding how the human brain
works
The potential of the learning sciences
• to inform the pedagogical knowledge of teachers and,
hence,
• to improve pedagogical practice is significant.
Does the knowledge base of the
teaching profession sufficiently
incorporate the latest scientific
research on learning?
26. Policy imperative for the teaching and
learning of 21st century skills,
might entail
• a re-skilling of the current teacher workforce and
• upgrading of the knowledge base of the teaching
profession.
Does the knowledge base of the teaching
profession meet the expectations for teaching
and learning 21st century skills?
Research Question #2
27. • Work in progress
• Analysing what policy makers,
practitioners, employers and parents
believe about skills; what the evidence tells
us; what stakeholders actually do; and the
gaps between them
27
The role of social and emotional skills
30. Social and emotional skills are malleable
Theevidence
Heckman and Kautz (2014)
• Sensitive periods for cognitive skills
tend to be early
• Sensitive periods for social and
emotional skills are much longer
32. • Data, indicators and benchmarking
provide evidence for policy makers
• Research and innovation provide ideas
• The role of policy analysis is to turn that
into useful advice for specific countries at
specific times
