However, the consequence of day-to-day viewing in such contexts has scarcely been considered. Additionally, no recent published research has provided any information on the costs of educational television. The lack of research in these areas is striking. Examining educational television viewing in monitored settings provides limited information on the influence of routine television consumption. Further, the broad reach of numerous educational television programmes should provide low perviewer costs and, resultantly, strong cost-effectiveness findings. This PhD study therefore examined (1) the association between educational television exposure and mathematics capability and (2) the cost effectiveness of educational television interventions. To achieve this, research was carried out that centred on Ubongo Kids – a popular Tanzanian-produced show delivering mathematics-focused content.}, language = {en}, number = {2}, journal = {British Journal of Educational Technology}, author = {Watson, Joseph and Hennessy, Sara and Vignoles, Anna}, year = {2020}, note = {KerkoCite.ItemAlsoKnownAs: 10.1111/bjet.13047 10.17863/cam.54714 2339240:6LGJJU8F 2339240:MVL3KA6H 2339240:U3SHRB68 2339240:XZDCXAZ7 2405685:8WKWEBZZ 2405685:A5XKUF3W 2405685:CHDUKI36 2405685:VJ8U5IDE 2405685:YENK6ASB}, keywords = {Tanzania, \_\_\_working\_potential\_duplicate, cost effectiveness, educational television, mathematics, ⛔ No DOI found}, } @article{walker_trialling_2022, title = {Trialling open educational resources for technology-supported teacher professional development in rural {Zimbabwe}}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1080/02671522.2022.2034925}, doi = {10.1080/02671522.2022.2034925}, journal = {Research Papers in Education}, author = {Walker, Hannah and Hennessy, Sara and Pimmer, Christoph}, year = {2022}, note = {KerkoCite.ItemAlsoKnownAs: 10.1080/02671522.2022.2034925 2405685:ZFPJ7TP7}, } @article{walker_trialling_2022, title = {Trialling open educational resources for technology-supported teacher professional development in rural {Zimbabwe}}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1080/02671522.2022.2034925}, doi = {10.1080/02671522.2022.2034925}, journal = {Research Papers in Education}, author = {Walker, Hannah and Hennessy, Sara and Pimmer, Christoph}, year = {2022}, note = {KerkoCite.ItemAlsoKnownAs: 10.1080/02671522.2022.2034925 2405685:ZFPJ7TP7}, } @techreport{tailor_exploring_2023, type = {Working {Paper}}, title = {Exploring the {Relationship} {Between} {Teachers}’ {Use} of {Technology} {During} the {Covid}-19 {Pandemic} in {India} and {Their} {Perspectives} on {Students}’ {Motivation} to {Learn}}, copyright = {Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International}, url = {https://docs.edtechhub.org/lib/D7VXZW6I}, abstract = {During the Covid-19 pandemic, a wealth of research emerged to quantify student learning and the accessibility of technology for learners. However, existing evidence highlights that access to technology did not equate to learning, yet few studies have investigated the underlying reasons behind this. As a correlating factor of learning achievement, this report investigates student motivation to learn, as perceived by teachers, and how this may have been influenced by their use of remote technologies during the pandemic. It elucidates the perspectives of teachers working remotely during the pandemic by presenting a secondary data analysis using the world’s largest teacher survey post-Covid-19 (the T4 teacher survey). It complements these findings with qualitative data gathered from eight teachers and education practitioners in India via an online focus group. Results from this study imply that teachers’ pedagogy was more important for student learning motivation than their use of technology and confirmed that more frequent interaction between teachers and students or parents can increase teacher perceptions of student learning motivation. Findings also suggest that student learning motivation may have significantly depended on the continued development of academic and socio-emotional skills. These findings have practical implications for improving remote learning and blended learning environments and for addressing the salient issue of rote learning in India.

Key findings were (1) forty percent of teachers reported that their school lacked access to any form of technological device, with almost half stating they never used digital technologies for teaching and learning purposes. (2) Almost half of the teachers perceived that girls' learning suffered more than boys, and more than 60\% of teachers believed learners from the financially poorest households suffered the greatest learning losses.

The study examined the impact on teachers' thinking and classroom practices. Data were derived from observations, lesson and workshop recordings, teacher interviews, portfolios and audio diaries. Through a teacher-led workshop approach and trialling new pedagogical strategies, teachers raised their expectations of pupils, adapted to learners’ knowledge levels, used more practical and group work, and integrated technology use.

The research and development involved teachers in three Zambian primary schools and culminated in an extensive multimedia resource. Using an ecological framework, factors emerging were characterised at three levels: teacher, school, and the wider community and policy context. They include school organisation and leadership, teacher motivation and perceptions of opportunities for professional learning and change, teacher views of pupil capabilities, availability of resources, teacher collaboration, and viewpoints of parents and policymakers.

However, TPD opportunities in LMICs are limited, unsustained, and often not informed by recent research evidence, and outcomes are mixed. Educational technologies offer potential to enhance formally provided programmes and informal peer-learning forms of TPD. We present the first systematic review of the literature pertaining to technology-mediated TPD for educators of school-aged learners in LMICs, aiming to characterise appropriate and effective uses of technology along with specific constraints operating in those contexts. An in-depth synthesis of 170 studies was undertaken, considering macro-, meso- and micro-level factors during TPD design and implementation in the 40 LMICs represented. Volume of publications increased dramatically over the review period (2008–2020), indicating that the field is rapidly developing. Results largely showed benefits for teachers, but evidence for sustainability, cost-effectiveness or tangible impacts on classroom practice and student outcomes was thin. Promising, locally-contextualised forms of technology-mediated TPD included virtual coaching, social messaging, blended learning, video-stimulated reflection, and use of subject-specific software/applications. We report on the variable effectiveness of programmes and limited attention to marginalised groups. To maximise effectiveness of technology-enhanced TPD, the role of facilitators or expert peers is paramount – yet often glossed over – and the interpersonal dimension of teacher learning must be maintained.

It describes a unique form of research partnership whereby Cambridge University academics and school teachers together grappled with and reformulated theory – through in-depth case studies analysing practice using interactive whiteboards in five subject areas. The inquiry exploited the collaborators’ complementary professional knowledge bases. Teachers’ voices are particularly audible in co-authored case study chapters. Outcomes included deeper insights into concepts of sociocultural learning theory and classroom dialogue, more analytical mindsets, sustained new practices and ways of working collegially. The book reflects upon the power of lesson video review and details how the co-inquirers negotiated “intermediate theory” – bridging educational theory and specific settings – framed in mutually accessible language and embodied in interactive multimedia resources for teacher development. These include video clips, analytic commentary from multiple perspectives, lesson materials, plus optional prompts for reflection and critique – not models of “best practice”. The resources make pedagogy explicit and vividly illustrate the book’s ideas, offering theory-informed yet practical tools designed with and for practitioners. Hennessy and colleagues have tested a model of ongoing, teacher-led development and innovation, professional dialogue and classroom trialing stimulated by discussing selected multimedia resources. The book will interest academic and teacher researchers, initial teacher educators, professional development leaders, mentors, plus practitioners interested in using interactive whiteboards and dialogic teaching. It explores widening approaches to collegial development to reach educators working in other contexts (with and without technology). This could involve intermediate theory building or shortcutting by sharing and adapting the outcomes – springboarding teachers’ further critique and professional learning. “I cannot recommend this book too highly … it weaves a complex developmental story with a range of facets.

Teacher interviews carried out 18 months after a year-long intervention showed that the programme became self-sustaining; earlier participants reported further development of their interactive teaching strategies and awareness of pupil progress; recent joiners developed similarly. Roles of teachers and pupils changed and a new classroom culture emerged.

Our conclusions thereby offer insights concerning the importance and impact of wider influences on participation and engagement of stakeholders and lead to recommendations for programme design and implementation, that should be taken on board by future initiatives.}, language = {en}, number = {1}, urldate = {2022-08-22}, journal = {Journal of Learning for Development}, author = {Haßler, Bjoern and Hennessy, Sara and Hofmann, Riikka}, month = mar, year = {2018}, note = {Number: 1 KerkoCite.ItemAlsoKnownAs: 10.56059/jl4d.v5i1.264 2339240:P65I7MGU 2405685:T2I86FZT}, keywords = {Open Educational Resources, Sustainable Development Goal 4, Teacher Professional Development, peer-facilitation, school-based active learning, sub-Saharan Africa}, } @techreport{dangelo_technology_2022, type = {Policy {Brief}}, title = {Technology {Use} for {Teacher} {Professional} {Development} in {Low}- and {Middle}-{Income} {Countries}: {Recommendations} for policy from a systematic review}, copyright = {Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International}, url = {https://docs.edtechhub.org/lib/7S9CUP77}, abstract = {An output of the EdTech Hub, https://edtechhub.org}, language = {en}, institution = {EdTech Hub}, author = {D'Angelo, Sophia and Hennessy, Sara and Kreimeia, Adam and Koomar, Saalim and Cao, Lydia and McIntyre, Nora and Brugha, Meaghan and Zubairi, Asma}, month = jan, year = {2022}, doi = {10.53832/edtechhub.0080}, note = {KerkoCite.ItemAlsoKnownAs: 10.53832/edtechhub.0080 2339240:PRMHXVPE 2405685:7S9CUP77 2405685:HHXQI3S4 2405685:VU5JQKWG 2534378:BXN59IRN}, keywords = {Read, Teacher education and training, \_r:AddedByZotZen}, } @article{calcagni_developing_2023, title = {Developing dialogic classroom practices through supporting professional agency: {Teachers}’ experiences of using the {T}-{SEDA} practitioner-led inquiry approach}, volume = {126}, issn = {0742-051X}, shorttitle = {Developing dialogic classroom practices through supporting professional agency}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0742051X23000550}, doi = {10.1016/j.tate.2023.104067}, abstract = {Classroom dialogue is considered productive for learning but rarely observed, and practitioner professional development is needed.
