ICT Competency Framework for Teachers
The UNESCO ICT Competency Framework for Teachers (ICT-CFT) seeks to
help countries develop comprehensive national teacher ICT competency policies and
standards and integrate these in overarching ICT in education plans. It highlights the
role that technology can play in supporting six major education focus areas across
three phases of knowledge acquisition, as illustrated in the chart below:
93
This framework is a response to recent technological and pedagogical
developments in the field of ICT and Education. It incorporates in its structure
inclusive principles of non-discrimination, opens and equitable information
accessibility and gender equality in the delivery of education supported by
technology. It addresses the impacts of recent technological advances on education
and learning, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Mobile Technologies, the Internet of
Things and Open Educational Resources, to support the creation of inclusive
Knowledge Societies. The ICT CFT provides a comprehensive set of competencies
teachers need to integrate ICT into their professional practice to facilitate students’
achievement of curricular objectives. Strong political commitments and sustained
investment in teacher education, and concerted actions between pre- and in-service
teacher trainings form the foundation of the successful implementation of this
Framework as it is contextualized to national and institutional goals. For this reason,
this document underlines the importance of steadfast commitment to supporting
teachers’ continuous professional development including through ICT and includes
examples to illustrate how ICT CFT could be used to facilitate teachers’ development
in diverse contexts. We look forward to strengthening our collaboration with all
stakeholders everywhere to leverage ICT to develop the skills required to thrive
within the fast-changing inclusive Knowledge Societies.

IMPRESSION OF THE LIRC:
The school has the resources to give its students access to educational resources. The
only issue is that some of the materials, especially some of them, are difficult to access.
The technology they have is equipped with some materials used for the students'
fundamental learning. There are some resources that cannot be borrowed outside of
designated areas by either students or teachers. A teacher can only borrow some of
these from their library if they need them to educate their students. The school had
internet access.
97
2. Do the guidelines and procedures facilitate easy access to the materials by
the teachers? Why?
Yes, these things are properly monitored in terms of how the resources
are used, particularly the microphones, speakers, and projectors. The
teachers who want to borrow the materials must sign up beforehand,
indicating the date they will return the materials, and this information
must be recorded before the materials are borrowed. This is particularly
crucial to avoid losing these educational resources.
As you observe the class, use the observation sheets provided to document your
observation.
3. Observe and take notes on how the teacher presents/uses the learning
resources.
4. Closely observe the learner’s response to the teacher’s use of learning
resources. Listen to their verbal responses. What do their responses
indicate? Do their response show attentiveness, eagerness, and
understanding?
5. This time, focus on their non-verbal responses. Are they learning and are
they showing their interest in the lesson and in the materials? Are they
looking towards the direction of the teacher and the materials? Are they
looking towards the direction of the teacher and the materials? Do their
actions show attentiveness, eagerness, and understanding?

Look for Technology Integration Matrix and use it to analyze what you observed.
In which level of technology integration do you think the teacher you observed
operated? Why?
Based on my observation, my cooperating teacher is at the entry level. She
100
is still used to the traditional way in which she uses visual aids to support
her discussions. She is managing to use technological tools to deliver her
lessons to her students.
Over-all, were the learning resources used effectively? Why? Why not? Give your
suggestions.
Yes, the learning resources were used effectively. However, I would
suggest that in order to provide students with challenging and engaging
learning programs, schools must make sure that their teaching and
learning materials can do well to students not to offend them.
Put yourself in the place of the teacher. What would you do similarly and what
would you do differently if you would teach the same lesson to the same group of
students? Why?
If I were to put myself in the place of the teacher, I would apply her way of
discussing the lesson wherein she really engages herself with her students,
establishing good communication skills as well as maintaining the connection
with her students. The thing that I would do differently is to employ more
interactive learning strategies.

In teaching a TLE subject, worksheets, visual aids, flashcards, and
rubrics are useful materials that are essential to put value at the same
Today's edu
time makes the subject more informative. In doing different activities,
these resources can be used to help the teacher to manage her
teaching. Students’ level of learning are being measured through these
materials.
An engaging environment that encourages efficient teaching and learning is
created when communication technologies are used to share and receive
information. It can easily interact with their students and share knowledge
through digital media, various applications that support internet learning
have made instructors' work more accessible and superior than ever. By
implementing new technologies, educators will be able to engage students in
novel, inspiring, and equity-promoting ways.

22 respondents, 7%. While Powerpoint is 71 respondents, 24%. Accordingly,
respondents have high efficiency skills in operating computer hardware using
Microsoft word is the most compared to Microsoft excel and powerpoint. This
is because Microsoft word processing is easy to learn for home classroom
learning. In addition, respondents were more efficient in handling tasks using
Microsoft word compared to the use of Microsoft Excel and Powerpoint.
