Abstract

PurposeThe aim of this study was to measure the readiness of science and mathematics supervisors to utilize technology and online learning platforms for teachers' plans and professional development, during and after the period of the COVID-19 pandemic.Design/methodology/approachTo achieve this aim, the researchers developed a questionnaire comprising of 55 items based on the instruments used in pertinent studies. A mixed-methods research design was employed, whereby a quantitative online survey was supplemented by focus group discussions with selected supervisors. Survey data were subjected to one-way analysis of variance and t-test, while information obtained via focus groups was coded to identify common themes related to the obstacles and challenges supervisors face.FindingsWhen completing the survey, the supervisors approached proficiency using technology; however, focus group discussions revealed misconceptions related to e-leaning and limitations in their abilities to use technology in schools, as well as obstacles imposed by the structure and management of the educational system. TPractical implicationsThese findings indicate that supervisors need support in acquiring the competencies required for integrating technology in education, and that their support to teacher community needs to be grounded in clear and systematic approaches and best educational practices.Originality/valueThese findings indicate that supervisors need support in acquiring the competencies required for integrating technology in education, and that their support to teacher community needs to be grounded in clear and systematic approaches and best educational practices.

科学和数学主管进行电子学习所需具备的能力:大流行后的教育特点
目的本研究的目的是衡量科学和数学主管在COVID-19大流行期间和之后利用技术和在线学习平台进行教师计划和专业发展的准备情况。设计/方法/方法为了实现这一目标,研究人员根据相关研究中使用的工具制定了一份由55个项目组成的问卷。采用混合方法研究设计,即定量在线调查辅以与选定的主管进行焦点小组讨论。调查数据进行了单向方差分析和t检验,而通过焦点小组获得的信息被编码,以确定与主管面临的障碍和挑战相关的共同主题。在完成调查时,主管使用技术接近熟练程度;然而,焦点小组讨论揭示了与电子学习有关的误解和他们在学校使用技术的能力的限制,以及教育系统的结构和管理所造成的障碍。实践意义这些研究结果表明,在获取将技术整合到教育中所需的能力方面,管理者需要得到支持,他们对教师群体的支持需要建立在清晰、系统的方法和最佳教育实践的基础上。原创性/价值这些研究结果表明,主管人员在获得将技术融入教育所需的能力方面需要得到支持,他们对教师群体的支持需要建立在明确和系统的方法和最佳教育实践的基础上。
