An Action Research Study of Secondary Assessment Practices
Sinay, E., Ryan, T. G. (2018). Fostering global competencies and deeper learning with digital technologies research series: Teacher engagement, technology integration, and leadership in STEM pedagogy. (Research Report No. 17/18-15). Toronto, Ontario, Canada: Toronto District School Board.
This report is the result of a collaborative project supported by the Council of Ontario Directors of Education (CODE), Technology and Learning Fund, TDSB Teaching and Learning Department-STEM K-12 and TDSB Research and Information Services led by Research Coordinator Erhan Sinay.
TEACHER ENGAGEMENT, TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION, AND LEADERSHIP IN STEM PEDAGOGY: The goal of the TDSB’s STEM strategy is to build capacity among TDSB Kindergarten to Grade 12 educators to enhance their STEM pedagogical knowledge, self-efficacy, and promote STEM implementation in classrooms. A critical factor in enhancing STEM across the Board is teacher engagement. This study examined: (1) teacher cognitive and emotional engagement, (2) social engagement with colleagues, students, and leadership, and (3) teacher engagement with STEM and digital tools. It is suggested the method used to measure teacher engagement in this study will be used in other system wide program implementations across the Board. Click here for the full report (2018).
