FTELab: a future classroom in higher education for redesigning teachers' init...Neuza Pedro
Presentation of Future teacher education Lab, future classroom in higher education. This project aims to rethinking and redesign teachers' initial training. More information at http://ftelab.ie.ulisboa.pt
In this paper we present the initial phase of a study in development under the project "Teachers' Aids on creating content for learning environments" (taccle2.eu), a European project funded by the European Union through the Comenius multilateral program (517726-LLP-1-2011-1-BE-COMENIUS-CMP). More concretely, we present the work that is being developed for the creation of a set of learning activities for the creative arts and cultural education curricula using ICT and Web 2.0 tools. The study was based on the principles of the development methodology approach (Van den Akker, 1999). Following this perspective, and using a focus group strategy, we present here the strategies created to catch the view of a group of art teachers previously selected on the basis of knowledge and experience of using technology in their teaching practice. Assuming the importance of involving teachers in the process of design and development of learning activities, we selected and worked during three months with a group of twelve experienced teachers in the use of the potential of information and communication tools, in particular in the use of Web 2.0 features. The main questions to answer with this joint reflection were: a) In the area of creative arts what kind of learning activities can benefit from the potential of digital technologies available today?; b) How should those activities be organized and presented to less motivated teachers in order to motivate them to use digital technologies in their practices? The preliminary results suggests the idea of structuring activities not individually, but in a "creative project integrator" as a way to bring inexperienced teachers from the arts and culture areas to meet the pedagogical potential of digital technologies and to integrate them more effectively in his or her teaching practice. In fact, the expert teachers interviewed suggest a consensus that the proposed activities should be organized around a common educational goal, albeit with sufficient flexibility that allows inexperienced teachers build or adjust their own content and context. We will conclude with a discussion and a reflection about teacher training strategies based on some suggested examples of imaginative and creative ways and proposals to organise the learning contexts using ICT tools in the case of the arts and culture subjects.

Educational research and innovation:
the case of technology integration
I am currently working as a researcher at Ghent University (Belgium) where I have been member of the Department of Educational Studies since 2003. My research interests are in the field of instructional design and educational innovation. Most of my work focuses on ICT integration in teaching and learning processes and how this can be associated with teacher and school characteristics. This encompasses the idea that innovations should be situated within the wider
field of school improvement. In more recent work, I am especially interested in exploring the interplay between (ICT) innovations and professional development. Also in this area I investigate themes at the individual level, e.g. educational beliefs, and at school level, e.g. leadership. You can find more information on my Academia profile: http://ugent.academia.edu/JoTondeur
During the presentation I will focus on the multidimensional interaction of both teacher and school characteristics in developing a richer understanding of the complex process of technology use in education. Differential types of technology use will be considered and how they are related to variables such as teacher attitudes, educational beliefs, and school policies. Moreover I would also like to discuss the interplay between pre/in-service training and ICT-integration in education.

Teacher design teams can be an effective way to promote the (re)design of curriculum materials in the context of blended learning in higher education. In this workshop, participants (educators, department heads, researchers,…) are introduced to the four-step procedure to blended learning. This procedure was developed during a professional development project by a community of practitioners (see www.ictdesignteams.be for more information). The workshop consists of three parts: first a short introduction of the project and the ICT design teams; then TDT's will be formed (under the guidance of the workshop leaders). Each TDT redesigns a particular case of 'traditional' learning into a blended design. The workshop will end with a group-reflection on the four-step approach and working in TDT's. No prior experience is expected from the workshops participants. The workshop should be interesting for any stakeholder in higher education involved in the process of integrating blended learning into the curriculum.

Presentation made at the EMINENT Project Event 2018 on the topic 'How to assess, certify and recognize learning in open online teacher professional development?'
This paper has been awarded the prize of best paper at the Educational Technology World Conference (ETWC) 2016. The main aim of this study was to measure the impact of the support pre-service teachers receive on their knowledge for effective technology integration, namely technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK). Specifically, we focused on the strategies included in the SQD (Synthesis of Qualitative Evidence) model: 1) using teacher educators as role models, 2) reflecting on the role of technology in education, 3) learning how to use technology by design, 4) collaboration with peers, 5) scaffolding authentic technology experiences, and 6) providing continuous feedback. In order to explore the relation between the perceived occurrences of the SQD-strategies and TPACK, survey data were collected from a sample of 688 final-year pre-service teachers in Belgium. In addition, a multiple case study was conducted in three teacher training institutions, including three focus group discussions with 19 pre-service teachers.

Towards a Framework for ICTs Integration in Teacher Education in IndiaPremier Publishers
Teachers can only effectively integrate technology in their instruction if they are themselves knowledgeable about the technology. In India, several researches have pointed out challenges hindering effective integration of ICTs in teacher education programme that raise the questions: What is missing in the teacher education and training curriculum? Is there skill training and maintenance for teachers? Do the teacher training institutions have the necessary infrastructure for ICT integration? This paper reports on the findings of a study that attempted to respond to these questions and suggests a possible framework for the successful implementation of teacher training programmes that make advantageous use of appropriate ICTs. It suggests that seven fundamental principles of good practice should be addressed for such programmes to be effective: a shift from an emphasis on ‘education for ICT’ to the use of ‘ICT for education’; an integration of ICT practice within the whole curriculum; a need for integration between pre-service and in-service teacher training; a need for the development of relevant and locally produced content; a need for appropriate educational partnerships; accepting a practice driven approach; and an emphasis on the development of sustainable costing models. Build on modern notions of teaching-learning activities, the paper concludes with a proposed course of action to leverage the real benefits of ICTs for teacher education in India.
PROPOSAL ISATT 2013
Sub division: 21st century learning
Capacity building for ICT integration in secondary schools in Kenya:
An exploratory case study
Jo Tondeur, Don Krug, Mike Bill, Maaike Smulders & Zhu Chang
Introduction and objectives
The demands of the 21st century dictate that learners should be equipped with requisite skills to competently engage and perform in the new information age. These skills commonly referred to as 21st century skills include inter-alia; critical thinking, problem solving, collaboration, creativity and communication (Voogt & Pareja, 2012). When the learning opportunities presented by Information Communication Technology (ICT) are well utilized, they have a great potential to develop 21st century skills (Selwyn, 2007). In view of the above, the Kenyan Ministry of Education expects ICT to be widely deployed for teaching and learning in primary and secondary schools across Kenya (see Quality Education and Training for Vision 2030). However, a simple placement of hardware and/or software will not make ICT integration naturally follow (Earle, 2002). One of the key failures of many past programs in Africa – and the rest of the world - was that schools were provided with equipment but with little or no support for teachers’ professional development, national and local ICT policies, and/or community involvement (Agyei & Voogt, 2011).
Clearly, the primary factor that influences the effectiveness of learning is not the availability of ICT, but the capacity to integrate of ICT in the different subject areas, the scope of the current study. This study investigates a professional development program that provides not only support to equip secondary schools in Kenya with ICT. The VVOB program was designed from a school improvement point of view to support the process of capacity building for ICT integration in the curriculum. It built upon teachers’ existing practices and facilities their reflection of an inquiry into these practices (see Lim, Tondeur, Nastiti, & Paragan, 2010). The school would be a collaborative community to create engaging content that would be shared and assessed (cf. Arntzen & Krug, 2011). We aim to gain insight into whether and how this program affects secondary school teachers and practices regarding the educational use of ICT.
Method
A case study was conducted in four pilot schools - with no previous ICT investments - to examine the process of capacity building for ICT-integration in the context of secondary education in Kenya. Based on a mixed method research approach, this study aims to critically evaluate the prospects and challenges through the lens of stakeholders at the different aggregation levels: policy makers (macro level), district managers, principals, and ICT coordinators (school level), and teachers and pupils at the micro level.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

7. Teachers’ 21st-century competences and ICT
attitudes are recurrently recognized as being at the
heart of modernization of the classroom practices,
yet much professional training is still inadequate,
particularly related to innovation and
teachers’ technology-supported pedagogical
practices (Barton & Haydn, 2006; BECTA, 2004; EC, 2013; OECD, 2011).
The efforts made to integrate technology in
teachers’ training curriculum in universities
are insufficient (Kay, 2006; Sutton, 2011).
#1
8. International reports identify that the levels of
ICT integration in teaching-learning activities
were not higher in ‘Novice teachers’.
Preservice teachers are moderately confident
in using technology for personal purposes but
they lack experiences in using classroom
technologies (Sutton, 2011).

As you remember, one of the most relevant skills for 21st century were the digital skills.
However national and international reports were identifying lack of kownledge and low levels of teachers’confidence in using ICT in their teaching practices.
So we can see that a significant investment needed to be made in changing teacher education, which involves initial teacher training as well as in-service teachers’ professional development.
That was the moment when our Ministry of Education decided to implement a Modernization Plan for Education: the technological plan for Education. This happened in many countries. Yet most of these programs didn’t fully addressed the teachers need for ICT-related training. And the ones that did, only focus on in-service teachers. University departments of education were not seen as stakeholders in this process of developing new teaching and learning practices in the classrooms.
Then as now the efforts made to integrate technology in teachers’ training curriculum in universities are still scarce.
In 2011, we analyzed the tendencies in the national policies regarding ICT in teacher education in 14 European countries and the conclusions were far from satisfactory. In a large set of countries ICT is not mandatory in the initial teacher education programs.
At the same moment, a new idea were being spread…
A lot of research has been developed around this concepts in order it prove or to deny it.
I would like to share with you some other relevant studies that supports our way of seing what must be developed in this active learning center.
A study developed with 409 post-secondary students in various faculties concluded that the digital proficiency of university students is not always high. It differes in gender, economic status and family income. Men from high income families presented the highest levels of digital proficiency.
Let me remind you that in most of the European countries preservice students tend to be women who came from middle socioeconomic status families.
Also international reports identify that the levels of ICT integration in teaching-learning activities were not higher in ‘novice teachers’. Teachers in the age group of 35 to 45 years old were the ones mostly involved in ICT related initiatives. The reason for that is that young teachers invest most of their time in mastering curricular contents and in managing classroom behaviors. Experienced teachers are more confident about subject and students’ management, and this allow them to focus on other issues, such as to innovate and explore how to improve their lessons.
So the idea that a new generation of ‘digital-native’ teachers were come into schools didn’t find any support in research. I mean scientific research, evidence-based research!!
Although pre-service teachers were very proficient in using basic technology for personal purposes, their scope of technology use was limited and they didn´t have any experience in using classroom technologies.
