ED35 Proportion of primary <strong>and</strong> secondary school teachers trained via ICT-enabled distance education<br />

programmes (for ISCED levels 1-3)<br />

Definition:<br />

Total number of primary <strong>and</strong> secondary school teachers<br />

who were trained via ICT-enabled distance education<br />

programmes, expressed as a percentage of the <strong>to</strong>tal<br />

number of teachers.<br />

Data requirement:<br />

(TDE) Number of teachers trained via ICT-enabled<br />

distance education programmes for ISCED levels 1-3.<br />

(refer <strong>to</strong> questionnaire item D.1.1)<br />

Purpose:<br />

To measure the degree of use <strong>and</strong> outcomes of ICTenabled<br />

distance education programmes for training<br />

teachers who currently teach in primary <strong>and</strong><br />

secondary schools.<br />

Method of collection:<br />

Administrative data collection through annual school<br />

census (or extract data from school records).<br />

Data source(s):<br />

Statistical unit of the Ministry of Education or,<br />

alternatively, the national statistical office.<br />

Analysis <strong>and</strong> interpretation:<br />

A high percentage or value for this indica<strong>to</strong>r reflects a<br />

high degree of use <strong>and</strong> outcomes of ICT-enabled<br />

distance education programme for supplementing<br />

conventional training of primary <strong>and</strong> secondary school<br />

teachers.<br />

This indica<strong>to</strong>r can also be calculated by ISCED levels,<br />

geographical regions, urban/rural areas <strong>and</strong> for<br />

individual educational institutions, <strong>and</strong> analysed in<br />

conjunction with other indica<strong>to</strong>rs regarding the<br />

percentage of teachers trained by modes of teachertraining<br />

in order <strong>to</strong> identify the contribution of the ICTenabled<br />

distance education delivery approach <strong>to</strong> teacher<br />

development programmes.<br />

Methodological <strong>and</strong> definition issues or<br />

operational limitations:<br />

See Appendix II for a more detailed definition of ICTenabled<br />

distance education programmes.<br />

Additional data may be collected <strong>to</strong> derive corollary<br />

indica<strong>to</strong>rs that distinguish between teachers trained in<br />

pre-service or in-service ICT-enabled distance<br />

education programmes.
