MENTEP: the research findings by EUN Partnership aisbl

Elena Pezzi, Italy

elenapezzi — 2018-04-30 09:51:58 UTC

What really surprises me is the high percentage of teachers (64%) for whom TET-SAT is just a confirmation of their level of competence in using ICT. What's more, for 28% of teachers TET-SAT showed a lower level of competence than the self-assessed. It confirms me the idea that the test group has been accurately selected (even though in a randomised way after the first selection) in order to work with teachers who have already a critical vision and idea of their competence and pedagogical use of ICT at school.
Knowing that, it is obvious that my first answer to the survey is not right, because I thought about a more varied sample of teachers...

Latife Çeri,Turkey

2018-04-30 10:14:59 UTC

I agree with
Elena Pezzi because it is rearly interesting 28 /100 received from the TET-SAT a lower level than the self assessed level indicated in the Benchmark Survey.

MARIA LUISA, Genova,Italy

2018-04-30 11:46:37 UTC

I think that the percentages reported by the research are significant numbers:
• The tool was easy to use (75%)
• The feedback page was useful for evaluating them
skills (69%)
• TET-SAT helped them evaluate theirs
competence (64%)
• The TET-SAT has helped them to rethink the use of
ICT in teaching (62%)
This confirms that only teachers who do not know TET-SAT do not use it, others use it and find it simple but effective too.

2018-04-30 11:53:50 UTC

I was surprised that teachers tended to over-estimate their abilities. I thought that we teachers have a good sense to rate one's own skills.

Teachers in scientific field are more willing to approach ICT than those ones in Humanistic.
30% said they didn't take part because of lacking of time.
I think ICT makes many teachers fear, still today.

ANDREINA ITALY

profconcas — 2018-04-30 12:37:10 UTC

I was very surprised by the results presented ..
my consideration about the use and knowledge of ICT was much higher and you can see from the first test I compiled.
after reading the PDF related to the survey I became aware that perhaps the colleagues with whom I work are very competent.
I agree that colleagues in science subjects are more willing to adopt ICT.
however I believe that my colleagues in humanities have a greater interest in the use of these tools at this time.

the result that I liked the most is 8% "achieved a higher level compared to the level assessed"

I do not foresee that teachers are aware of these issues and that they are aware that they need to devote time to such practices ...

Franca, Italy

2018-04-30 12:48:50 UTC

I was surprised that 64% of teachers received from the TET-SAT the same
level as the self assessed level in the survey. Then I was surprised to learn teachers of a scientific subject have highest probability of using
the TET-SAT [50%] than teachers of humanities subject [15%]. If i think about the situation of my school I should think a score exactly up side down.

Anna Maria Scrimieri

annamaria_scrimieri — 2018-04-30 12:51:58 UTC

I have to admit that initially I was very pessimistic as I thought that the evaluation of teachers was not positive because I think that not enough teachers use technologies in thieir classes. In my school my colleagues are still a little reluctant to do that They need to be convinced and driven to use new technologies. They are still a little afraid on technology.

Vasiliki Psaridou/Greece

psaridou — 2018-04-30 13:32:24 UTC

What I found really surprising was the fact that 75% of teachers found the tool easy to use. I thought that this number would have been under 50 %. Really glad to have read that

Eliana

elianamassari1 — 2018-04-30 13:50:14 UTC

Two aspects particularly struck me among those reported by the experimentation data:
the first that the percentage of teachers available to take the test is higher (50% against 15%) among teachers who already use the ICT;
the second that teachers who used TET-SAT showed more critical views on ICT in teaching and learning, especially those who started with a very high self-assessed TET competence.

Francesca, Italy

2018-04-30 14:04:40 UTC

As almost all the course members have already said, reading I was surprised by the fact that teachers tend to overestimate their abilities.

Gina, Italy

luigia_motti — 2018-04-30 14:08:29 UTC

I was surprised to read that 30% of teachers did not partecipate to TED SAT due to lack of time ... it does not take so long! I think rather that the real reason is that they do not think ICT is really useful or they are afraid of it. This is confirmed by the results concerning the difference between the scientific teachers' approach compared to the teachers of literary subjects. That's exactly what happens in my school. Teachers of mathematics, physics or science understand the importance of ICT in teaching and use it often. Instead, the teachers of the literary sector refuse the new technologies, and they consider them harmful for teaching. In reality this happens because they do not know them and, unfortunately, often, "they do not want to know them". In fact, with many efforts, I was able to convince several colleagues to participate in a course about the use of tools for teaching (concept maps, timeline, evaluation rubrics, e-books, Gsuite, padlet etc ..) and, after the initial retrosies, now they are finding them interesting and are learning to use them.

Paulo Dionisio, Portugal

paulo_dionisio — 2018-04-30 14:11:28 UTC

I am glad that most teachers use the TET-SAT tools for self-regulation, self-reflection and self-assessment as a measure to be implemented in their pedagogical practices

Angelamaria Galderisi, Italy

soleemare_a — 2018-04-30 14:12:09 UTC

I share the same attitude and feelings of sample teachers who did the TET SAT test. Before doing the test I believed to have a medium level in ICT competences, but after the test I realized how much I have to work in order to use my technological competences in teaching.

2018-04-30 14:34:06 UTC

I am very curious about the age of the profile A in relation with the age of the profile B. As for the rest, the results seem predictable and I find similar results in my experience. Thank you

Maria, Italy

2018-04-30 14:48:23 UTC

I think a few colleagues in my school have heard about the MENTEP project. I will propose them to perform the test and analyze the results, but I fear they will be lower than those highlighted in the videos.

Cristiano Lodi, Italy.

2018-04-30 14:59:54 UTC

I will propose the TET-SAt to my colleagues at the end of the master. It's important to reflect with my colleagues about level of our skills in ICT and I think tha the TET-SAt is a perfect tool for that.

Daisy , Italy

daisydegio — 2018-04-30 15:20:32 UTC

As far as the results of the survey are concerned, I'm not surprised that 30% of the teachers did not partecipate because of the lack of time...but maybe they do not think that ICT is really important in their job... but I think they are WRONG: it is one of the most important skills in the didactics of the XXI century .

As soon as I had heard of the possibility of joining this MOOC I wrote an email to my colleagues, but less than 10% answered me, and noone wanted to start it... due to the lack of time, the intense period at school... So I'll definitely try once again because I really believe that TET SAT can be useful for the teachers.

Cinzia, Italy

2018-04-30 15:28:27 UTC

I find interesting the MENTEP research findings: they are similar to my initial reflections on the results of the experimentation of TET-SAT. I'd like to propose it to my colleagues; in my school there isn't a big familiarity with self assessment

2018-04-30 15:32:12 UTC

I believe that it is important and necessary for every teacher and student.

Dimitrios , Athens

2018-04-30 15:43:28 UTC

I think that teachers who made the Test overestimated their ICT competences and confused theory from a digital lesson in real classroom.

Paola, Italia

2018-04-30 15:51:10 UTC

The most interesting video for me was the second "The probability of using TET-SAT".
1. I dont know where to place my discipline: scientific or humanistic?
2. I think it's normal that scientific disciplines are more aligned with the use of ICT, even if, in my opinion, the best results are obtained from disciplines that are normally far to technology.
3. Older teachers have less confidence with ICT, even if they are often more attentive to the methodological content than to the spectacular aspects.
4. Who doesn't have devices at home can not use them at school: to use the ICT you have to prepare a lot of material at home ...
5. Women are more technological than men? This is in contrast to European data that indicate the female refractory to undertake careers related to ICT

Silvia, Italy

2018-04-30 16:10:04 UTC

I'd like to propose the TET-SAt to my colleagues. I think it's important to reflect with them about level of our skills in ICT and I think tha the TET-SAt is a perfect tool for that.

Elisabetta, Italy

2018-04-30 16:11:46 UTC

It is important for every teacher to know another way for our job.

Flavia, Italy

flavia_marcelli — 2018-04-30 16:39:42 UTC

I've found Giovanni Abbiati's 4th video very interesting because of three main points:
1) older teachers revised their TED competences more than younger ones;
2) women revised them more than men;
3) the test group results showed a little bit less enthusiasm about their own TET competences than the control group.
This means that TET-SAT has had in general terms an impact of critical revision and has stimulated self-reflection , particularly as far as older women teachers are concerned (by the way, I'm one of them!)

Natale Andrea, Italy

2018-04-30 16:42:37 UTC

As everyone is surprised by the results obtained by the TET-SAT, perhaps everyone is afraid of all this technology and keep their knowledge under control. In my opinion this is the moment to start changing.
I do not think there may be problems with age differences. We must be patient.

Ale, Italy

2018-04-30 16:58:51 UTC

I Will propose ti muovi colleagues the toolkit, bug I'm almost dire mostra of Thema won't take parte because I know how they understimates Digital competences

Alessia, Italia

2018-04-30 17:34:59 UTC

Me too I'm surprised that teachers over-estimate their abilities.

Elvira - Italy

elvis72_eg — 2018-04-30 17:43:31 UTC

After using the TET-SAT, I have a more critical perception of my level of TET competences. I think that TET-SAT should be tested by all teachers!

Paola T., Palestrina(Italy)

torniai_paola — 2018-04-30 17:49:13 UTC

I agree with my colleagues and me too I'm surprised by research results. It's very important to reflect about TET competences

Yes research results are brilliant...I've never mind it...infact I tought teachers have not good idea of TET. I think also that teacher can be guide in use of TIC ...

Alice , Italy

severi_alice — 2018-04-30 19:05:44 UTC

I'm surprised when I read that a profile teacher has a probability of using TET. I think that every teacher need to do a self assessment of your own digital competences.

Emilia, Pola

2018-04-30 19:32:26 UTC

The most important in that test is that it gives us opportunity for self-reflactions about using ICT at school. It is also a good idea to compare our abilities and skills with other teachers.

Emilia, Poland

2018-04-30 19:35:34 UTC

Thanks to that tool we can compare our abilities and skills to other teachers. It gives us self-reflactions about how good I am at using ICT at school. Do I need to change anything?

Marina, Italy

marina_toracchi — 2018-04-30 19:42:44 UTC

I noticed that the type B teacher works 18 hours, has no technological tools at home and has not trained in ICT
Maybe it's also a question of time and money

Cinzia Marrone Italy

2018-04-30 20:00:08 UTC

It will be important to condivide TET-SAT with all colleagues, even if it’s difficult to engage the weak ones

Adele, Italy

2018-04-30 20:10:54 UTC

I think it's important to test ourselves and revise what we think and what we know. But let me say something: I met many colleague in scientific area that hate ICT. I am a teacher of the "B side" (that MENTEP recognize) and I love ICT and technology in our life. Maybe I am like a "virus" in that side :)

ozan,Türkiye

2018-04-30 20:12:48 UTC

technology is a must to be in classes but the main idea is to combine technology with the desire to learn new things so Mentep is a tool for ICT to be used in classes by willingly by students and teachers

Mürüvvet,Türkiye

2018-04-30 21:28:05 UTC

Before the test I thought that I could manage the use of ICT in my classes in an avarage but after the test I understood that I missed some points in the use of related items,especially in the point of effective and efficient use of ICT. I think authenticity,learner's pedagogy and their awareness about the use of ICT are also important.

Anna Maria Ricci, Italy

amricci1000 — 2018-04-30 22:11:41 UTC

I am surprised that from the TET-SAT the upper level received only 8% I thought a much higher percentage.
While for the lower level the figure is high as it is 28%, I expected a lower percentage in this sector

Lalitha India

2018-05-01 05:34:03 UTC

The results are quite different from what I had predicted. It is obvious that after being in the test group, obviously the participant will start evaluating his skills very critically unlike before. ence only 8% of the participants got more scores than expected.

Ivan, Italy

2018-05-01 08:25:49 UTC

I didn't think 64% of teachers had a hight or highter level (8%).
Another surprising point was to read that one of the aspects limiting the use of TET-SAT is lack of time

Tonia C-Italy

tonia_calo — 2018-05-01 08:28:59 UTC

I was not surprised that teachers over-estimated their ICT competences before the survey, but what really surprised me was the 64% of teachers who received from the TET-SAT the same level as the self assessed level in the Benchmark Survey. I would like to think that the situation is Italy has really improved during these last years thanks to the National Digital Plan

Stefano, Italy

sfn6 — 2018-05-01 09:17:50 UTC

The Time question is crucial. To start using a new tool, digital or not, you need time to become acquainted with it. The fact that - i am talking about my country, italy - teachers are overloaded with compulsory extra tasks, makes really difficult to find the time to efficiently face something new. This is not to try finding an excuse, but it is an extra data i’d like to consider next to the B teacher profile.
I think it is a meaniningful and positive data the 64% of teachers that got from the tet-sat the same level as the self assessed in the benchmark survey.

Andrea

2018-05-01 09:36:34 UTC

I am not surprised that many teachers think that the tool was easy to use and that it provides with valuable feedback. I also understand that having positive or negative views on ICT is crucial to use the TET-SAT tool, on the contrary I find a bit surprising the fact that time constraints can be considered the main reason for not using it.
The fact that a large group of teachers received the same or a higher level is positive.

Riccardo Lopes, Italy

2018-05-01 09:53:46 UTC

My first reflection on the results of the MENTEP research is that we need to work on teachers profile B: teachers of humanities subjects and
who has a low level of ICT self-assessed ability, they should be encouraged and motivated.
(The image is Dante Alighieri, detail from a Luca Signorelli's fresco).

Antonio, Italy

2018-05-01 10:07:30 UTC

These were results that I expected in general. Surely the critical spirit of the teachers increases considerably after using this tool. Man always think that it takes a good deal of balance in the use of ICT.

Isabel, Portugal

Isabel_Bernardo — 2018-05-01 10:08:51 UTC

User Profiles A and B These results did not surprise me. They correspond to what I have observed in Portugal, namely in events where teachers and researchers participate: most cases in research or practices presented by teachers are in the STEM. The reasons can be several, namely a greater similarity between curricular that makes possible the creation of common resources and made available in platforms like Go-Lab. But they are, in my opinion, worrying results, so a relevant area of MENTEP intervention may be the B user profile. Feedback I was surprised to see that it received from the TET-SAT the same level as the self-assessed level in the Benchmark Survey. I thought the result would be much lower. But if we cross this variable with that of the number of volunteer respondents, I fear that these are the ones that have more ICT skills. The impact evaluation results show that TET-SAT leads teachers to develop more informed and critical assessments of their TET competence It does not surprise me. Although I consider that TET-SAT might be a little more detailed, I also consider that it has a great heuristic power, which is greater if the teacher already has a more detailed notion of what is behind each of the sentences.

Erika, Italy

nickregata — 2018-05-01 10:15:31 UTC

I think that teachers who made the Test overstimated their competences. It's very important for every teacher to know another way for our job. I'd like to propose the TET-SAT to my colleagues

Carla Langella, Italy

profcarla_langella — 2018-05-01 10:29:21 UTC

An increased critical attitude towards my skills in the didactic use of ICT was the main result after I took the TET-SAT, so I am not surprised. The teacher profile is a question policy makers should work on: obviously younger teachers are the ones who are motivated in using ICT in their teaching, but in Italy we still have a high percentage of teachers who are over 50 AND not willing to change their teaching habits.
It is also related to TIME: any changes cost time, but it is not given enough value in our school system.

Jasenka Kuljak, Croatia

jasenka_kuljak — 2018-05-01 11:45:19 UTC

After using the TET-SAT, teachers tend to have a more critical perception of their level
of TET competences. Their self-assessed ICT ability decreases (especially among older
teachers and women).
Moreover, teachers who used the TET-SAT showed more critical views on ICT in teaching
and learning

Maurizio - Ital

2018-05-01 12:06:57 UTC

Certainly a greater reflection on what I was doing in the classes, the test forced me to do it. I have much more to do but at the same time I think I am on the right track, both for myself and as an example for my colleagues. Obviously I can not think of having arrived but of being only at the beginning.

Jana, Germany

roro1 — 2018-05-01 12:21:42 UTC

I have been wondering why Germany did not participate in the project. But as we teach 26 hours a week, we would need a new category all to ourselves: Teacher C or D? I hope somebody shares this information with the German government as that is where some assessment is badly needed.

Suzan,Turkey

2018-05-01 12:43:03 UTC

It is nice that TET-SAT makes a positive effect on teachers. I am also not surprised that 15% of teachers has a problem of using TET-SAT as a new assessment tool because as they say there are too many work hours, no technological devices at home or at their school or maybe they have a negative view on ICT.

Giusy, Italy

2018-05-01 14:45:48 UTC

It's a good idea this online course. In fact many teachers can using ICT in their teaching and use it in their classrooms.

fabiamia2003 — 2018-05-01 15:24:20 UTC

Reflecting on the results of the evaluation of the use of TET-SAT and interweaving the data emerged with my personal and professional experience, I confirm that normally
the self-assessed ICT ability decreases especially among the older teachers and the ones who teach humanistic subjects.

Angela,Italy

2018-05-01 15:51:25 UTC

Reflecting on the results of the research, I think that the tet sat has a positive effect, it should be used for all the teachers in order to develop more critical evaluations of their TET competence

Giusy Giammetti.

2018-05-01 16:12:02 UTC

reflecting on the results and on the experience, I think the tool is a great resource to guide the teacher to control own innovative
methodology by ICT.I do not agree on the rigidity of the two teacher profiles because I know many very capable humanistic teachers with ICT and I also Know many mathematics teachers who have an obsolete methodology despite being good with technology
...Know how to teach is more important and this makes ICT effective too.

Georgios Seitis, Greece

2018-05-01 16:17:40 UTC

Here I am, one of the 28% with lower level of ICT competencies. The fact that too many teachers have, just, confirmed their skills it is a lit bit surprising, especialy, because of the random selection. Of course it is good, but I have a question: only the good one (and the young one) answered to the TET SAT or they answered what they would like to do and not what they do in real class? I dont know. The positive is that the TET SAT is a very good tool for everyone and help us very much in improving ourselves.

Rosanna, Ital

marraudinorosanna — 2018-05-01 16:21:25 UTC

from the opinions of teachers who have experienced TET-SAT it seems to me very interesting how their opinion has changed with regard to new technologies in the field of learning teaching.

Doinita B., Romania

2018-05-01 16:26:49 UTC

Most teachers are self-evaluating objectively and the response received by applying the TET-SAT instrument is in line with their real level. This is proof that the tool contains clear descriptors and that teachers treat objectively TET issues.

Gianna, Italy

2018-05-01 16:34:21 UTC

I think that many teachers can us ITC in their clasrooms.

Cinzia Giulia F.

nicomd — 2018-05-01 16:40:23 UTC

I think the TET-SAT helps to assess and improve a teacher competence with ICT. It helps to become more critical about your teaching and rethink the use of ICT in teaching . Unfortunately , observing other teachers in my school, I know that not all of them keep up to dated with technology and TET-SAT would be a good way of reaching a more critical perception of the level of TET competences.

Denise, Italy

2018-05-01 16:43:36 UTC

I think that TET SAT is useful because help to focus the area that need to be improved.
It is easy to do and it give you back a clear profile of tec ability

Paola; Italy

pbenchi — 2018-05-01 17:02:12 UTC

I expected teachers to overestimate their ICT skills, as I also did! However, the TET-SAT has shown to be a powerful means to stir self-awareness and a critical approach to one’s own competences. The real hindrance to the use of ITC, in my opinion, comes from two main problems:

1. Many schools don’t have appropriate technological means

I am surprised that from the TET-SAT the upper level received only 8% I thought a much higher percentage. While for the lower level the figure is high as it is 28%, I expected a lower percentage in this sector

I wasn't surprised at the research results, I actually thought they were quite self-evident. I did expect teachers to be overly critical of themselves, but not after taking the TET-SAT but as they were taking them for the first time. I myself tried to be as critical as possible for there would be no advantage in taking the TET-SAT and not being truthful about it.
I believe that there is a positive outcome of taking the TET-SAT clearly stated in the results, in that teachers after aim at fixing their shortcomings knowing exactly where their shortcomings are, contrary to before the TET-SAT where one might not be 100% sure of what to fix.
Fantastic experience, I love it and am on board, cannot wait to share it in my school.

In my opinion, TET-SAT is a very useful tool to reflect on our digital competence. I think that it takes into consideration two clear evidences: teachers are trained in our free time and teachers want to improve using ICT. TET-SAT combines these two ideas to design a system that identifies the areas in which we need to improve to achieve digital competence.

Considering the results of Tet -Sat test I think that there can be a misunderstanding when considering: 1. how much competence you have in using tools in your teaching 2. the reflection on some aspects (cyberbullying, eSafety, )that we generally don't care too much when working with our guys.
a
It often happens that we don't care too much also the copyright...for the teachers'attention is focused on how ICT can render easy and immediate the transmission of a concept

I think that TET-SAT is a very useful tool that allows us teachers to self-identify and support the development of our skills in the use of ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) in teaching.
The results of the evaluation of the use of TET-SAT are the ones I expected

My ICT abilities were assessed as 76%. When my colleagues assessed themselves, ICT talents of those who were new to the profession were high. It seems that my colleagues who have been teaching for many years have had a low ICT abilities.

Zeynep, Turkey

The research results weren't unpredictable and I think TET-SAT is avery useful tool for us the teachers to be able to better understand and reflect on our ICT level in teaching. Also, I wonder about the longterm effects of the experimentation.

António Gonçalves, Portugal

afgoncalves61 — 2018-05-02 14:10:03 UTC

Regarding the impact of the research about TET-SAT use, I was amazed with the results about "The probability of using the TET-SAT " because that reality is exactly the same as in my school, wich I thought that was a local problem. Concerning "What is the impact of the TET-SAT" it was not surprise, because my idea of teacher is, that is a person that make use of metacognition, and so, if 1 in 4 overestimated their competence, seems normal to me.

Graziamaria, Italy I think that it was a good idea to create a tool that helps teachers to value themselves but it is good also beacuse it says us wich competence we have to improve.

From the results of the research done with the TET-SAT test, it is clear that a part of the subjects involved (28%) is not able to self-evaluate and understand their own degree of competence. This investigation makes it even more necessary to disseminate and use a test like this to raise awareness of your limitations and to try to overcome them

Virginia Muntean, Romania

virginia_muntean — 2018-05-02 16:25:57 UTC

The best consequence of the TET -SAT research was probably that the subjects showed a much more critical assessment of their competences after seeing the survey results. What is also a positive fact is that 64% of the subjects received the same level by TET-SAT, which proves that this survey was seriously taken in consideration and that the teachers are able to self assess themselves.

I will suggest them to do it!

The division and contradiction between A-type and B-type teachers was quite black and white. I teach humanities, but what it comes to other measures, I'm more like type A. I think it's not a good way to divide teachers so strictly.

I was actually expecting a higher use of technology, but in fact many schools still aren´t equiped or the teachers don't take maximum profit of the ITC they have available. However it's clear that most of us want to learn more and to use ICT to increase better and more fullfyling results in our students and in our professional practices.

And 30% of teachers, who did not use the tool, mentioned time constraints as a main reason for not using it. That gives a good measure of the HUGE difficulties on improving ICT tools use in schools.

The results of the Mentep research did not surprise me much. Corresponds to the real situation present in our Italian schools. Even today many teachers do not use ICT in their teaching. This is mostly the case in a high-end age group, who are not accustomed or use little in everyday life digital tools, social media and apps, most of them teach humanities. They are often linked to traditional and wary teaching approaches to technology. The use of TET SAT as a tool for self-evaluation and reflection could involve and involve an intermediate range of teachers, those who pose with a positive critical attitude towards the technologies but who do not have adequate knowledge and have not attended refresher courses. The use of TET SAT should verify the effects that it would subsequently produce on teacher training and on the change in teaching methodologies if supported by an adequate policy directed towards the same direction and by a greater digital implementation of the schools.

I think it's not a good way to divide teachers so strictly. Jenni, Finland Sevda, Turkey Sevda, Turkey The results are very close to my guess. It is nice to see tha teachers use ICT in their classroom. Nobody can ignore that using digital technology has a positive impact on teaching and learning. serdal Turkey serdal Turkey My reflecton on the resuls of MENTEP research is that we need to work on teacher profils Drazenka Kuzman, Croatia Drazenka Kuzman, Croatia My reflection on the results of MENTEP reaearch is that teachers using TET-SAT have more developed ICT competencies than other teachers. İpek, TURKEY İpek, TURKEY I am surprised that from the TET-SAT the same level received 64%. What is more,I am glad the TET-SAT helped them to re-think the use of ICT in teaching (62%). Because one of the aims of TETSAT is to make you think about which level you want to be. I think this is very important for B profile. My first reflection on th My first reflection on the results of the MENTEP research is that we need to work on teachers profile B: teachers of humanities subjects and who has a low level of ICT self-assessed ability, they should be encouraged and motivated. Galina, Bulgaria Galina, Bulgaria "8% of teachers received from the TET-SAT a higher level than the self assessed level indicated in the Benchmark Survey. " That information really struck me. I thought teachers usually overestimate themselves. This figure is for short term period> I am not sure what will happen in the long run. Monica Giansanti, Italy Monica Giansanti, Italy I am a little astonished as for the teacher profile B around the probability of using the TET-SAT. I'm a "humanist" teacher and I know many colleagues of the same disciplines who are very confident on the ICT for learning processes and would be very motivated on trying the TET-SAT. I will suggest them to do it! Iwona, Poland Iwona, Poland The results are very suprising. This proves positive influence of TET-SAT. This tool is just necessary to objectively assess your skills and improve our work Moreno Concezzi, Rieti, Italy Moreno Concezzi, Rieti, Italy It's lighting to see the great percentage of the teacher which found comparabl their guessed level with the feedback received. This is a motivation to improve their compe tencies, abilities and knowledge about ict and their teaching manner. A critical self exploration for a teacher is important. Aynur Korkmaz Trabzon/Turkey Aynur Korkmaz Trabzon/Turkey The result is suprising for me. It is a positive sign for all of us as teachers:) This investigation shows that ICT competence level meets the need in schools. Sa Sa Sachin Kulkarni nashik Maharashtra India Sachin Kulkarni nashik Maharashtra India results are really surprising. Comparing total teachers and digital feedback. Virginia Muntean, Romania Virginia Muntean, Romania The best consequence of the TET -SAT research was probably that the subjects showed a much more critical assessment of their competences after seeing the survey results. What is also a positive fact is that 64% of the subjects received the same level by TET-SAT, which proves that this survey was seriously taken in consideration and that the teachers are able to self assess themselves. Imma, Italy Imma, Italy From the results of the research done with the TET-SAT test, it is clear that a part of the subjects involved (28%) is not able to self-evaluate and understand their own degree of competence. This investigation makes it even more necessary to disseminate and use a test like this to raise awareness of your limitations and to try to overcome them Adina,Romania Adina,Romania Surprising results! Angela,Italy Angela,Italy Reflecting on the results of the research, I think that the tet sat has a positive effect, it should be used for all the teachers in order to develop more critical evaluations of their TET competence Adelaide,Italy Adelaide,Italy The results meet my expectations, but I did not imagine that teachers of scientific subjects were the ones to use ICT more than colleagues of humanities subject Domenico, Italy Domenico, Italy I'm a little surprised by the percentages. I considered a higher percentage in the upper level for those teachers who use TET-SAT as a self-assessment tool. Graziamaria, Italy I think that it was a good idea to create a tool that helps teachers to value themselves but it is good also beacuse it says us wich competence we have to improve. Graziamaria, Italy I think that it was a good idea to create a tool that helps teachers to value themselves but it is good also beacuse it says us wich competence we have to improve. António Gonçalves, Portugal António Gonçalves, Portugal Regarding the impact of the research about TET-SAT use, I was amazed with the results about "The probability of using the TET-SAT " because that reality is exactly the same as in my school, wich I thought that was a local problem. Concerning "What is the impact of the TET-SAT" it was not surprise, because my idea of teacher is, that is a person that make use of metacognition, and so, if 1 in 4 overestimated their competence, seems normal to me. Zeynep, Turkey Zeynep, Turkey The research results weren't unpredictable and I think TET-SAT is avery useful tool for us the teachers to be able to better understand and reflect on our ICT level in teaching. Also, I wonder about the longterm effects of the experimentation. Nella, Italy Nella, Italy I think that TET-SAT is a very useful tool that allows us teachers to self-identify and support the development of our skills in the use of ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) in teaching. The results of the evaluation of the use of TET-SAT are the ones I expected Samet Yavuz TERZİ , TURKEY Samet Yavuz TERZİ , TURKEY My ICT abilities were assessed as 76%. When my colleagues assessed themselves, ICT talents of those who were new to the profession were high. It seems that my colleagues who have been teaching for many years have had a low ICT abilities. Tamara, Croatia Tamara, Croatia I wasn' surprised with the results, because I was expecting something like that. Rosanna G (Italy Rosanna G (Italy Considering the results of Tet -Sat test I think that there can be a misunderstanding when considering: 1. how much competence you have in using tools in your teaching 2. the reflection on some aspects (cyberbullying, eSafety, )that we generally don't care too much when working with our guys. a It often happens that we don't care too much also the copyright...for the teachers'attention is focused on how ICT can render easy and immediate the transmission of a concept Teresa,Italy Teresa,Italy he results of the experimentation are as I expected. Especially as teachers evaluate their merits Anthony Porcaro, Naples, Italy Anthony Porcaro, Naples, Italy I wasn't surprised at the research results, I actually thought they were quite self-evident. I did expect teachers to be overly critical of themselves, but not after taking the TET-SAT but as they were taking them for the first time. I myself tried to be as critical as possible for there would be no advantage in taking the TET-SAT and not being truthful about it. I believe that there is a positive outcome of taking the TET-SAT clearly stated in the results, in that teachers after aim at fixing their shortcomings knowing exactly where their shortcomings are, contrary to before the TET-SAT where one might not be 100% sure of what to fix. Fantastic experience, I love it and am on board, cannot wait to share it in my school. Raúl Aguado, Spain. Raúl Aguado, Spain. In my opinion, TET-SAT is a very useful tool to reflect on our digital competence. I think that it takes into consideration two clear evidences: teachers are trained in our free time and teachers want to improve using ICT. TET-SAT combines these two ideas to design a system that identifies the areas in which we need to improve to achieve digital competence. İsmail Erdoğan, Turkey İsmail Erdoğan, Turkey The TET-SAT ought to be used as an assesment modern, but it must not be the one...that must be supported bu others... I am surprised that from I am surprised that from the TET-SAT the upper level received only 8% I thought a much higher percentage. While for the lower level the figure is high as it is 28%, I expected a lower percentage in this sector Paola; Italy Paola; Italy I expected teachers to overestimate their ICT skills, as I also did! However, the TET-SAT has shown to be a powerful means to stir self-awareness and a critical approach to one’s own competences. The real hindrance to the use of ITC, in my opinion, comes from two main problems: 1. Many schools don’t have appropriate technological means 2. Teachers’ work load that increases day by day. Denise, Italy Denise, Italy I think that TET SAT is useful because help to focus the area that need to be improved. It is easy to do and it give you back a clear profile of tec ability Cinzia Giulia F. Cinzia Giulia F. I think the TET-SAT helps to assess and improve a teacher competence with ICT. It helps to become more critical about your teaching and rethink the use of ICT in teaching . Unfortunately , observing other teachers in my school, I know that not all of them keep up to dated with technology and TET-SAT would be a good way of reaching a more critical perception of the level of TET competences. Gianna, Italy Gianna, Italy I think that many teachers can us ITC in their clasrooms. Doinita B., Romania Doinita B., Romania Most teachers are self-evaluating objectively and the response received by applying the TET-SAT instrument is in line with their real level. This is proof that the tool contains clear descriptors and that teachers treat objectively TET issues. Rosanna, Ital Rosanna, Ital from the opinions of teachers who have experienced TET-SAT it seems to me very interesting how their opinion has changed with regard to new technologies in the field of learning teaching. Georgios Seitis, Greece Georgios Seitis, Greece Here I am, one of the 28% with lower level of ICT competencies. The fact that too many teachers have, just, confirmed their skills it is a lit bit surprising, especialy, because of the random selection. Of course it is good, but I have a question: only the good one (and the young one) answered to the TET SAT or they answered what they would like to do and not what they do in real class? I dont know. The positive is that the TET SAT is a very good tool for everyone and help us very much in improving ourselves. Giusy Giammetti. Giusy Giammetti. reflecting on the results and on the experience, I think the tool is a great resource to guide the teacher to control own innovative methodology by ICT.I do not agree on the rigidity of the two teacher profiles because I know many very capable humanistic teachers with ICT and I also Know many mathematics teachers who have an obsolete methodology despite being good with technology ...Know how to teach is more important and this makes ICT effective too. Monica, Italy Monica, Italy Reflecting on the results of the evaluation of the use of TET-SAT and interweaving the data emerged with my personal and professional experience, I confirm that normally the self-assessed ICT ability decreases especially among the older teachers and the ones who teach humanistic subjects. Giusy, Italy Giusy, Italy It's a good idea this online course. In fact many teachers can using ICT in their teaching and use it in their classrooms. Ecem, Turkey Ecem, Turkey It is nice that TET-SAT makes a positive effect on teachers. I am also not surprised that 15% of teachers has a problem of using TET-SAT as a new assessment tool because as they say there are too many work hours, no technological devices at home or at their school or maybe they have a negative view on ICT. Benjamin Benjamin i think this test will let others to know the important of ICT in learning Suzan,Turkey Suzan,Turkey I am glad that TET SAT affected the teachers positively. They had a chance to evaluate themselves. They noticed that they should use ICT in classes. Jana, Germany Jana, Germany I have been wondering why Germany did not participate in the project. But as we teach 26 hours a week, we would need a new category all to ourselves: Teacher C or D? I hope somebody shares this information with the German government as that is where some assessment is badly needed. Maurizio - Ital Maurizio - Ital Certainly a greater reflection on what I was doing in the classes, the test forced me to do it. I have much more to do but at the same time I think I am on the right track, both for myself and as an example for my colleagues. Obviously I can not think of having arrived but of being only at the beginning. Jasenka Kuljak, Croatia Jasenka Kuljak, Croatia After using the TET-SAT, teachers tend to have a more critical perception of their level of TET competences. Their self-assessed ICT ability decreases (especially among older teachers and women). Moreover, teachers who used the TET-SAT showed more critical views on ICT in teaching and learning Carla Langella, Italy Carla Langella, Italy An increased critical attitude towards my skills in the didactic use of ICT was the main result after I took the TET-SAT, so I am not surprised. The teacher profile is a question policy makers should work on: obviously younger teachers are the ones who are motivated in using ICT in their teaching, but in Italy we still have a high percentage of teachers who are over 50 AND not willing to change their teaching habits. It is also related to TIME: any changes cost time, but it is not given enough value in our school system. Erika, Italy Erika, Italy I think that teachers who made the Test overstimated their competences. It's very important for every teacher to know another way for our job. I'd like to propose the TET-SAT to my colleagues Isabel, Portugal Isabel, Portugal User Profiles A and B These results did not surprise me. They correspond to what I have observed in Portugal, namely in events where teachers and researchers participate: most cases in research or practices presented by teachers are in the STEM. The reasons can be several, namely a greater similarity between curricular that makes possible the creation of common resources and made available in platforms like Go-Lab. But they are, in my opinion, worrying results, so a relevant area of MENTEP intervention may be the B user profile. Feedback I was surprised to see that it received from the TET-SAT the same level as the self-assessed level in the Benchmark Survey. I thought the result would be much lower. But if we cross this variable with that of the number of volunteer respondents, I fear that these are the ones that have more ICT skills. The impact evaluation results show that TET-SAT leads teachers to develop more informed and critical assessments of their TET competence It does not surprise me. Although I consider that TET-SAT might be a little more detailed, I also consider that it has a great heuristic power, which is greater if the teacher already has a more detailed notion of what is behind each of the sentences. Giusy, Italy Giusy, Italy Giusy, Italy Giusy, Italy It's a good idea this online course. In fact many teachers can using ICT in their teaching and use it in their classrooms.

Antonio, Italy Antonio, Italy These were results that I expected in general. Surely the critical spirit of the teachers increases considerably after using this tool. Man always think that it takes a good deal of balance in the use of ICT. Riccardo Lopes, Italy Riccardo Lopes, Italy My first reflection on the results of the MENTEP research is that we need to work on teachers profile B: teachers of humanities subjects and who has a low level of ICT self-assessed ability, they should be encouraged and motivated. (The image is Dante Alighieri, detail from a Luca Signorelli's fresco). Andrea Andrea I am not surprised that many teachers think that the tool was easy to use and that it provides with valuable feedback. I also understand that having positive or negative views on ICT is crucial to use the TET-SAT tool, on the contrary I find a bit surprising the fact that time constraints can be considered the main reason for not using it. The fact that a large group of teachers received the same or a higher level is positive. Stefano, Italy Stefano, Italy The Time question is crucial. To start using a new tool, digital or not, you need time to become acquainted with it. The fact that - i am talking about my country, italy - teachers are overloaded with compulsory extra tasks, makes really difficult to find the time to efficiently face something new. This is not to try finding an excuse, but it is an extra data i’d like to consider next to the B teacher profile. I think it is a meaniningful and positive data the 64% of teachers that got from the tet-sat the same level as the self assessed in the benchmark survey. Tonia C-Italy Tonia C-Italy Antonio, Italy Antonio, Italy These were results that I expected in general. Surely the critical spirit of the teachers increases considerably after using this tool.

Tonia C-Italy Tonia C-Italy I was not surprised that teachers over-estimated their ICT competences before the survey, but what really surprised me was the 64% of teachers who received from the TET-SAT the same level as the self assessed level in the Benchmark Survey. I would like to think that the situation is Italy has really improved during these last years thanks to the National Digital Plan Ivan, Italy Ivan, Italy I didn't think 64% of teachers had a hight or highter level (8%). Another surprising point was to read that one of the aspects limiting the use of TET-SAT is lack of time Lalitha India Lalitha India The results are quite different from what I had predicted. It is obvious that after being in the test group, obviously the participant will start evaluating his skills very critically unlike before. ence only 8% of the participants got more scores than expected. Anna Maria Ricci, Italy Anna Maria Ricci, Italy I am surprised that from the TET-SAT the upper level received only 8% I thought a much higher percentage. While for the lower level the figure is high as it is 28%, I expected a lower percentage in this sector ozan,Türkiye ozan,Türkiye technology is a must to be in classes but the main idea is to combine technology with the desire to learn new things so Mentep is a tool for ICT to be used in classes by willingly by students and teachers Adele, Italy Adele, Italy I think it's important to test ourselves and revise what we think and what we know. But let me say something: I met many colleague in scientific area that hate ICT. I am a teacher of the "B side" (that MENTEP recognize) and I love ICT and technology in our life. Maybe I am like a "virus" in that side :) Cinzia Marrone Italy Cinzia Marrone Italy It will be important to condivide TET-SAT with all colleagues, even if it’s difficult to engage the weak ones Marina, Italy Marina, Italy I noticed that the type B teacher works 18 hours, has no technological tools at home and has not trained in ICT Maybe it's also a question of time and money Mürüvvet,Türkiye Mürüvvet,Türkiye Before the test I thought that I could manage the use of ICT in my classes in an avarage but after the test I understood that I missed some points in the use of related items,especially in the point of effective and efficient use of ICT. I think authenticity,learner's pedagogy and their awareness about the use of ICT are also important. Emilia, Poland Emilia, Poland Thanks to that tool we can compare our abilities and skills to other teachers. It gives us self-reflactions about how good I am at using ICT at school. Do I need to change anything? Emilia, Pola Emilia, Pola The most important in that test is that it gives us opportunity for self-reflactions about using ICT at school. It is also a good idea to compare our abilities and skills with other teachers. Alice , Italy Alice , Italy I'm surprised when I read that a profile teacher has a probability of using TET. I think that every teacher need to do a self assessment of your own digital competences. Emilia, Italy Emilia, Italy Yes research results are brilliant...I've never mind it...infact I tought teachers have not good idea of TET. I think also that teacher can be guide in use of TIC ... Valbona ,Albania Valbona ,Albania Ebru ŞAHİN,TURKEY Ebru ŞAHİN,TURKEY I think İt İs necessary for teachers Vincenzo M. Italy Vincenzo M. Italy THE MOST OF THE COLLEGES AS ME SURPRISED THE RESEARCH RESULTS THE IMPORTER OF TET COMPETENCES Maria Letizia, Italy Maria Letizia, Italy I think that teachers who made the Test overestimated their ICT competences and confused theory from a digital lesson in real classroom. Paola T., Palestrina(Italy) Paola T., Palestrina(Italy) I agree with my colleagues and me too I'm surprised by research results. It's very important to reflect about TET competences Elvira - Italy Elvira - Italy After using the TET-SAT, I have a more critical perception of my level of TET competences. I think that TET-SAT should be tested by all teachers! Alessia, Italia Alessia, Italia Me too I'm surprised that teachers over-estimate their abilities. Ale, Italy Ale, Italy I Will propose ti muovi colleagues the toolkit, bug I'm almost dire mostra of Thema won't take parte because I know how they understimates Digital competences Natale Andrea, Italy Natale Andrea, Italy As everyone is surprised by the results obtained by the TET-SAT, perhaps everyone is afraid of all this technology and keep their knowledge under control. In my opinion this is the moment to start changing. I do not think there may be problems with age differences. We must be patient. Elisabetta, Italy Elisabetta, Italy It is important for every teacher to know another way for our job. Silvia, Italy Silvia, Italy I'd like to propose the TET-SAt to my colleagues. I think it's important to reflect with them about level of our skills in ICT and I think tha the TET-SAt is a perfect tool for that. Paola, Italia Paola, Italia The most interesting video for me was the second "The probability of using TET-SAT". 1. I dont know where to place my discipline: scientific or humanistic? 2. I think it's normal that scientific disciplines are more aligned with the use of ICT, even if, in my opinion, the best results are obtained from disciplines that are normally far to technology. 3. Older teachers have less confidence with ICT, even if they are often more attentive to the methodological content than to the spectacular aspects. 4. Who doesn't have devices at home can not use them at school: to use the ICT you have to prepare a lot of material at home ... 5. Women are more technological than men? This is in contrast to European data that indicate the female refractory to undertake careers related to ICT Dimitrios , Athens Dimitrios , Athens I think that teachers who made the Test overestimated their ICT competences and confused theory from a digital lesson in real classroom. nazım krıdaş nazım krıdaş I believe that it is important and necessary for every teacher and student. T, T, Flavia, Italy Flavia, Italy I've found Giovanni Abbiati's 4th video very interesting because of three main points: 1) older teachers revised their TED competences more than younger ones; 2) women revised them more than men; 3) the test group results showed a little bit less enthusiasm about their own TET competences than the control group. This means that TET-SAT has had in general terms an impact of critical revision and has stimulated self-reflection , particularly as far as older women teachers are concerned (by the way, I'm one of them!) Cinzia, Italy Cinzia, Italy I find interesting the MENTEP research findings: they are similar to my initial reflections on the results of the experimentation of TET-SAT. I'd like to propose it to my colleagues; in my school there isn't a big familiarity with self assessment Daisy , Italy Daisy , Italy As far as the results of the survey are concerned, I'm not surprised that 30% of the teachers did not partecipate because of the lack of time...but maybe they do not think that ICT is really important in their job... but I think they are WRONG: it is one of the most important skills in the didactics of the XXI century . As soon as I had heard of the possibility of joining this MOOC I wrote an email to my colleagues, but less than 10% answered me, and noone wanted to start it... due to the lack of time, the intense period at school... So I'll definitely try once again because I really believe that TET SAT can be useful for the teachers. Cristiano Lodi, Italy. Cristiano Lodi, Italy. I will propose the TET-SAt to my colleagues at the end of the master. It's important to reflect with my colleagues about level of our skills in ICT and I think tha the TET-SAt is a perfect tool for that. Maria, Italy Maria, Italy I think a few colleagues in my school have heard about the MENTEP project. I will propose them to perform the test and analyze the results, but I fear they will be lower than those highlighted in the videos. I am very curious ab I am very curious about the age of the profile A in relation with the age of the profile B. As for the rest, the results seem predictable and I find similar results in my experience. Thank you Angelamaria Galderisi, Italy Angelamaria Galderisi, Italy I share the same attitude and feelings of sample teachers who did the TET SAT test. Before doing the test I believed to have a medium level in ICT competences, but after the test I realized how much I have to work in order to use my technological competences in teaching. Gina, Italy Gina, Italy I was surprised to read that 30% of teachers did not partecipate to TED SAT due to lack of time ... it does not take so long! I think rather that the real reason is that they do not think ICT is really useful or they are afraid of it. This is confirmed by the results concerning the difference between the scientific teachers' approach compared to the teachers of literary subjects. That's exactly what happens in my school. Teachers of mathematics, physics or science understand the importance of ICT in teaching and use it often. Instead, the teachers of the literary sector refuse the new technologies, and they consider them harmful for teaching. In reality this happens because they do not know them and, unfortunately, often, "they do not want to know them". In fact, with many efforts, I was able to convince several colleagues to participate in a course about the use of tools for teaching (concept maps, timeline, evaluation rubrics, e-books, Gsuite, padlet etc ..) and, after the initial retrosies, now they are finding them interesting and are learning to use them. Paulo Dionisio, Portugal Paulo Dionisio, Portugal I am glad that most teachers use the TET-SAT tools for self-regulation, self-reflection and self-assessment as a measure to be implemented in their pedagogical practices Francesca, Italy Francesca, Italy As almost all the course members have already said, reading I was surprised by the fact that teachers tend to overestimate their abilities. Anna Maria Scrimieri Anna Maria Scrimieri I have to admit that initially I was very pessimistic as I thought that the evaluation of teachers was not positive because I think that not enough teachers use technologies in thieir classes. In my school my colleagues are still a little reluctant to do that They need to be convinced and driven to use new technologies. They are still a little afraid on technology. Eliana Eliana Two aspects particularly struck me among those reported by the experimentation data: the first that the percentage of teachers available to take the test is higher (50% against 15%) among teachers who already use the ICT; the second that teachers who used TET-SAT showed more critical views on ICT in teaching and learning, especially those who started with a very high self-assessed TET competence. Vasiliki Psaridou/Greece Vasiliki Psaridou/Greece What I found really surprising was the fact that 75% of teachers found the tool easy to use. I thought that this number would have been under 50 %. Really glad to have read that Franca, Italy Franca, Italy I was surprised that 64% of teachers received from the TET-SAT the same level as the self assessed level in the survey. Then I was surprised to learn teachers of a scientific subject have highest probability of using the TET-SAT [50%] than teachers of humanities subject [15%]. If i think about the situation of my school I should think a score exactly up side down. İsa ÇETİN İsa ÇETİN Dinar-AFYONKARAHİSAR TURKEY I do not foresee that teachers are aware of these issues and that they are aware that they need to devote time to such practices ... ANDREINA ITALY ANDREINA ITALY I was very surprised by the results presented .. my consideration about the use and knowledge of ICT was much higher and you can see from the first test I compiled. after reading the PDF related to the survey I became aware that perhaps the colleagues with whom I work are very competent. I agree that colleagues in science subjects are more willing to adopt ICT. however I believe that my colleagues in humanities have a greater interest in the use of these tools at this time. the result that I liked the most is 8% "achieved a higher level compared to the level assessed" Giusi M Giusi M Teachers in scientific field are more willing to approach ICT than those ones in Humanistic. 30% said they didn't take part because of lacking of time. I think ICT makes many teachers fear, still today. I was surprised that I was surprised that teachers tended to over-estimate their abilities. I thought that we teachers have a good sense to rate one's own skills. MARIA LUISA, Genova,Italy MARIA LUISA, Genova,Italy I think that the percentages reported by the research are significant numbers: • The tool was easy to use (75%) • The feedback page was useful for evaluating them skills (69%) • TET-SAT helped them evaluate theirs competence (64%) • The TET-SAT has helped them to rethink the use of ICT in teaching (62%) This confirms that only teachers who do not know TET-SAT do not use it, others use it and find it simple but effective too. Latife Çeri,Turkey Latife Çeri,Turkey I agree with Elena Pezzi because it is rearly interesting 28 /100 received from the TET-SAT a lower level than the self assessed level indicated in the Benchmark Survey. Elena Pezzi, Italy Elena Pezzi, Italy What really surprises me is the high percentage of teachers (64%) for whom TET-SAT is just a confirmation of their level of competence in using ICT. What's more, for 28% of teachers TET-SAT showed a lower level of competence than the self-assessed. It confirms me the idea that the test group has been accurately selected (even though in a randomised way after the first selection) in order to work with teachers who have already a critical vision and idea of their competence and pedagogical use of ICT at school. Knowing that, it is obvious that my first answer to the survey is not right, because I thought about a more varied sample of teachers...

Seems the results were expected and the teachers are good in self-assessment. Some of teachers improve ICT competencies permanently no matter if they apply them in classwork.

Emilia De Simone, Ital

desimone_emi — 2018-05-03 16:07:35 UTC

As already supported by other Italian teachers on the platform, the results of the TET reflect very much the dynamics present in the Italian school, especially where the teachers are not very young and teach literary and anthropological subjects.
The younger teachers who deal with scientific subjects are more open and available towards research and experimentation in the educational field.
The innovative teaching methodologies, flanked by new technologies, are rarely used, but above all not very well known and there is not even the intention to implement them. Even the technologies used daily by students are not often used as tools, as their potentials are not known.
A generalized TET application would be an excellent tool to have a clear idea of skills and a perfect starting point for a concrete and effective targeted training plan, but it would then be necessary to see if the teachers would form without a general policy of compulsory in addition, another question mark is given by the freedom of teaching, so that the application in the classes should also be verified.
Another problem is the complicated situation of technology in schools, which should be implemented.

Amelia De Chiara, Italy

amelia_dechiara — 2018-05-03 16:50:58 UTC

I'm not surprised, the results well describe the situation also in my school. Many teachers don't use ICT in teaching, especially the "old school" teachers who are at the end of their carrier and they don't want to change their habits. I've also noticed that in my school scientific subjects teachers are the ones that use ICT often and they are also willing to improve their ICT competencies, while humanities subjects teachers are reluctant to use ICT and they also don't want to learn how to use ICT.

Assunta, Italy

2018-05-03 20:38:47 UTC

I am not surprised about the average reached by teachers even by the ICT enthusiast because sometimes we do ovestimate our competence. this is why I think the TET SAT is a useful tool which enables teachers to be more objective and to reflect on their skills.
Another aspect which clearly reflects the situation in Italian schools is the low level of confidence in ICT and the results show perfectly how especially older teachers and those dedicate dto Human Studies (Arr, Music and similar subjects) are less keen on using ICT while Scientific subjects teachers and let me include in the category Language teachers are more open to new tools.

I believe that effectively the tool can support teachers in the process of innovation, using ICT and thus also improve the levels of their digital skills.
It seems to me that the findings revealed that the use of ICT by teachers in their lessons and the strengthening of their digital skills should increase.

Catalina from Romania

lctugulan — 2018-05-03 21:05:30 UTC

There are many teachers that dont use TIC in their lessons even if the students use TIC daily in their reasearch. Some of the teachers are more conservators(classical) even if they are living in modern times.

Reflectiong on the MENTEP research findings, I think teachers are a good idea on use of TET-SET. In effect most of them think TET-SAT is an easy online tool, the feedback page and the TET-SAT help them to assess their competences and , in the end, it helps them to re-think the use of ICT in their teaching.

Sevinç Aytaş from TURKEY

2018-05-04 19:24:08 UTC

I do not agree with the teacher profiles A and B. In my school and in my country, humanity subject teacher like English and sovial studies are more eager and curious about using ICTs in their courses. Older teachers are not willing to change their habit of using traditional methods. I believe in the past English- being mu branch also- was the most ICT adaptable lesson. But now especially science lessons are far more enjoyable with simulations and so on. But there are fee teachers who are capables of ysing those kind of stuff in their kesson. I believe English teachers are more innovative in that sense.

zeljko — 2018-05-04 21:48:07 UTC

Our school is implementing a system of self-evaluation of the school through the application of the ministry of education. The application data is collected by the school management. TET-SAT is an excellent tool for each teacher to individually carry out his / her own self-assessment and to encourage it in further developing its competences.

Adnan AKYÜZ, Turkey

adnanakyuz — 2018-05-04 21:59:00 UTC

For teachers who have adopted traditional teaching methods and are not open to innovative teaching methods, this method may not be very appealing. However, a teacher who wants to train his / her pupil to be innovative and open to self-development can achieve this purpose by using the TET-SAT tool. The TET-SAT tool offers an objective assessment.

Nuno Lança, Portugal

nunolanca — 2018-05-05 11:21:47 UTC

Apparently, the average TET-SAT score is 53%, corresponding to "Competent". The results state that about 2/3 of the respondents got results in line with their initial assessment. Only a minor percentage, 8%, overestimated their initial level.
These results are actually surprising, in my own personal opinion, as I was expecting that the respondents were comprised mainly of tech savvy individuals with good experience in TET.
In a sense, these results are consistent with a good sample.
This also means that by ruling out schools that were below a certain threshold of equipment /connectivity it still got teachers in the study that don't use ICT that often and that are in need of help to improve.

M.R. Cavaliere, Italy

2018-05-05 12:16:55 UTC

I believe that the self-assessment test is a good opportunity to better understand one's confidence with ICT in teaching. Moreover, at least in my case, reflect on the questions posed in the test was a useful starting point for other possible actions that I had not thought about.

Salvatrice Maria Stella La Vaccara, Italy

2018-05-05 16:30:48 UTC

The results revealed by the research are quite clear and reflect those that were my expectations after having well analyzed the feedback I obtained. A good percentage of teachers affirms the ease and usefulness in using TET-SAT the possibility of verifying their skills in order to eventually rethink a new and different approach in the use of ICT in teaching.

The results truly give a panoramic view of the difference between scientific subject and humanities subject teachers

2018-05-05 19:49:46 UTC

The results show that traditional teachers who don't use technology are not willing to self-assess themselves. It is normal because they know that they are not that good with technology and they see TET-SAT useless. Also teachers with heavy workload will not even want to waste their time with a test tool about technology. Teachers who are interested in technology and self development will use TET-SAT. The results also shows that TET-SAT is a good way to self-criticize themselves and try to improve their ICT usage at school.

Mário, Lisbon School of Education

mariorelvas — 2018-05-06 00:21:49 UTC

Satisfaction: 7.5 out of 10 is considered very high. How come? The participants where volunteers, ICT adopters, teachers that use ICT in their classrooms. If the survey was mandatory and all the teacher had to answer, including those that do not use ICT, than I would agree that 7.5 was in fact very high. With this sample, 9 or even 8.5 (90% or 85%) would be a very high satisfaction. Probability of using TET-SAT: I completely agree that 50% of probability of use TET-SAT by a cohort that favour so much ICT is a small result so something is missing. Teachers’ average TET-SAT score: how come the more enthusiasts, the ones with the highest levels of competence only get Average??

2018-05-06 01:45:59 UTC

teachers are not always aware of their level of skills in using teaching technology. the mentep tool helps them

Irgen Xhyra

irgen_xhyra — 2018-05-06 11:06:28 UTC

There is a gap on teaching humanities and those who teach sciences probably because it is related with the training they have received (one of the sections of the self-assessment tool was related with the abilities on programming and so on). Mostly the humanities are related with competences that have to deal with human interactions.

Petra, Slovenia

petra_dermota1 — 2018-05-06 12:06:26 UTC

I expected such research findings. All that is mentioned in the study is true for me and my colleagues. Most teachers use the classical teaching method. Their culmination is the use of a computer and projector for a powerpoint presentation. But there are some teachers who use new methods using ICT to enrich their teaching.

Daniela, Italy

darezzo_daniela — 2018-05-06 13:24:57 UTC

Dopo aver utilizzato il TET-SAT, gli insegnanti tendono ad avere una percezione più critica del loro livello

delle competenze TET. La loro abilità TIC autovalutata diminuisce.
Penso che sia questo un grandissimo risultato!!!

I think that is is essential to find out about our knowledge and skills and get some feedback so that we can work on further developments. By saying our and we, I mean that this is something which should be applied in general.

The data on what the TET-SAT teachers thought was interesting to me.
The ease of use and effectiveness of the tool in the process of self-assessment of their skills were very positive and well 62% considered that TET-SAT is useful for rethinking the use of ICT in teaching. This last data is really important because it is one of the fundamental objectives of TET-SAT.
