Abstract
Compétences des élèves-maîtres de l’école secondaire quant à l’utilisation des suites de logiciels bureautiques et des outils TIC courants et leurs implications pour une intégration réussie des TIC dans le système d’éducation de l’île Maurice
Highlights
The Mauritius Institute of Education (MIE) is the primary provider of professional development programmes for practicing teachers and the sole provider of pre-service training programmes for primary school teachers
In view of the importance of Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) for education, UNESCO and its partners have conducted an extensive consultation to identify the competencies that teachers should develop. This resulted in a document titled as UNESCO ICT-Competency Framework for Teachers (ICT_CFT) which was first published in 2008 and revised in 2011
From Part 1 of the survey questionnaire, it was found that a low percentage of 14.3% of teachers did not have a computer at home. 28.7% of teachers used the computer at the MIE and 62.9% at school
Summary
There are a number of issues that may hinder teachers to know how to use ICT effectively in their teaching. In view of the importance of ICT for education, UNESCO and its partners have conducted an extensive consultation to identify the competencies that teachers should develop. Teachers need to help students to become collaborative, problem-solving and creative learners through using ICT.The Framework is arranged in three approaches to teaching: technology literacy, knowledge deepening and knowledge creation. These approaches are seen as part of a development continuum and each approach has different implications for education reform and improvement. On the basis of the guidelines provided in this document that has prompted me to conduct an initial survey research on the competencies of trainee teachers
