Editor's Notes
- #3 TALIS 2013 was the second round of TALIS, after the 2008 cycle. The main focus is on lower secondary teachers, but TALIS 2013 introduced the options for countries to survey also their primary (6 countries) and upper secondary teachers (11 countries took this option).
- #4 These are the main themes of TALIS 2013, for time reasons this presentation will focus on some of them
- #5 TALIS looks at the importance of teacher professional development, mentoring, induction – an array of programmes that help teachers develop the skills they need to teach effectively and feel supported
- #6 Figure 4.14 TALIS recognises the importance of PD to teachers, given the ever-changing classrooms. When asked about the needs that teachers feel for PD - Teaching students with special needs, ICT skills for teaching and new technilogies in the workplace are among the most frequently reported areas with high needs for PD among teachers across all countries. In Mexico teaching in multicultural settting is also among the high needs.
- #7 Figure 4.15 In many cases participation in PD can be limited due to a number of obstacles teachers may experience. Conflicts with work schedule, lack of incentives or high costs are among the most frequently reported barriers. In order to overcome such barreirs teachers need support from the system’s and from their leaderships. In terms of the latter, the figure shows that particularly in Mexio lack of employer support is a big barrier to teachers’ participation in PD.
- #8 It is important to overcome these barriers because TALIS shows that teachers feel that PD positively impacts their teaching…
- #9 TALIS asks teachers a number of questions about their classroom practices and the environment and their teaching beliefs
- #10 Adapted from Figure 6.12 Not surprisingly most of teachers’ time in a given lesson goes to teaching, however TALIS shows that a lot of time is also spent on administrative tasks and keeping order in a classroom. For instance in Mexico it’s nearly a quarter of an average lesson – that is a lot of time, which is sacrificed that should be better spent on students’ learning.
- #11 Expended from Figure 6.7 Teachers’ job extends far beyond teaching. The figure shows the number of hours teachers spend on in an average week on: school management, communication with parents, extracurricular activities (e.g. in Japan it’s nearly 8 hours a week – equivalent to a working day in many countries), student counselling, team work, administrative tasks, marking, planning and all other tasks. The figure also shows that there is a lot difference between countries in terms of these activities.
- #12 Figure 6.2 The figure presents the percentage of teacher who report using these different teaching practices frequently or in nearly all lessons. It shows that in most countries, the more active teaching practices (small group work, using ICT, work on projects that require at least one week to complete) are used much less frequently than the more passive practices (e.g. presenting summary of recently learned content or checking students’ homework). The differences between the use of these practices in Mexico is small than the TALIS average. Research suggests that different practices could be beneficial to students’ learning and active teaching can stimulate the development of students’ non-cognitive skills as well.
- #13 TALIS asks also asks teachers about their satisfaction with their job, their schools and their perception about the profession.
- #14 Figure 7.2 Teachers are generally very happy with their jobs, as shown in this figure. More than 80 % of teachers are: Satisfied with their jobs Enjoy working in their schools Would recommend their schools as good places to work
- #15 Figure 7.3 As the figure shows only about one third of teachrs across TALIS countries see teaching as a professiona that is valued in society. This can potentially have implications for teacher retention and attracting good candidates to the professions. As the figure shows there are some differences across systems– e.g. more than 50% see teaching as a valued profession in Malaysia, Singapore, Korea and Abu Dabu (UAE), while less than 10 % in Spain, Sweden, France and Slovak Republic.
- #16 There is a positive association between teachers’ perceptions of the value of teaching profession in the society and country’s student achievement. This can see in positive associations with the share of top mathematics performers in PISA 2012 – as seen in this graph; also: Positive association with average mathematics performance (the higher the percentage of teachers who believe that teaching is a valued, the higher the average in mathematics in PISA 2012) - R2 = 0.15 r= 0.38 Negative association with the share of low mathematics performers in PISA 2012 (the higher the percentage of teachers who believe that teaching is a valued, the fewer PISA low performers in a country)- R2 = 0.06 r= 0.23
- #17 Figure 7.6 The graph shows that on average across TALIS systems, teacher satisfaction is not affected by class size (as shown in the figure to the left) but is affected by classroom compsoition. E.g. the higher the percentage of students with behavioural problems in a class – the lower teacher’s job satisfaction. In contrast: teacher collaboration and positive relationships between teachers and students and other teachers are some of the drivers of job satisfaction.
- #18 The next round of TALIS ( the third round) will take place in TALIS 2018. We already know that there will be even more systems participating than in 2013 – over 45 countries or economies have confirmed so far, including several Latin American countries. The main focus is on lower secondary (ISCED 2) teachers, as always. In addition, same as in TALIS 2013, we offer countries options to also join primary school (ISCED 1) TALIS, upper secondary (ISCED 3) TALIS, and TALIS-PISA link – whereby TALIS questionnaire will be delivered in the same schools as PISA 2018 in order to link student and teacher data on school level. If countries are still interested in joining TALIS 2018 the deadline is end of July 2016.
- #19 These are the themes currently under development with the TALIS Questionnaire Expert Group. The main idea is to balance the need for policy-relevance by making sure that the themes will be relevant in the future, with the need for consistency in questions across surveys so that we can analyse trend data across the 3 cycles of TALIS.
