摘要

本文的目的是探讨肯尼亚中学教师和校长的可用数据及其使用情况。设计/方法/方法采用定性案例研究设计,本研究利用访谈和文献证据来探索现有数据及其在肯尼亚学校中的应用。研究结果:肯尼亚学校的可用数据是相似的,除了背景数据在学校之间有轻微的差异。校长主要使用校级数据来监测学校的运作,计划和制定校级政策,这些政策主要关注学校和课程的改进,而很少关注教师的改进。教师的改进尝试主要是通过对标。调查结果还显示,肯尼亚的校长对老师隐瞒检查报告,一些校长比其他人更有创造性地使用数据。例如,一位校长利用数据启动了一项喂养计划,以支持经济困难的学生。然而,教师大多使用课堂水平的数据来计划课程和监控学生的进步。研究局限性/启示研究结果可用于发展中国家和发达国家之间的数据使用比较研究。实际意义根据研究结果,需要进行数据使用培训,以帮助肯尼亚学校使用数据来改进教师和教学。创意/价值问责制和数据使用是世界各地许多学校改进工作的核心。例如,过去二十年表明学校面临压力,主要以数据的形式说明所投入的资源和向儿童提供的教育。遗憾的是,研究很少关注肯尼亚等发展中国家学校的数据使用情况。

Data use in Kenyan secondary schools
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the data available and their use by Kenyan secondary school teachers and head teachers. Design/methodology/approach Using a qualitative case study design, this study utilised interviews and documentary evidence to explore the data available and their use within Kenyan schools. Findings The data available in Kenyan schools were similar except for context data which had slight variations between schools. Head teachers mainly used school-level data to monitor school functioning, plan and develop school-level policies which mainly focused on school and curriculum improvement but little on teacher improvement. Teacher improvement attempts were mostly via benchmarking. The results also show that Kenyan head teachers hide inspection reports from teachers and that some head teachers used data creatively than others. For example, one head teacher used data to start a feeding programme to support economically disadvantaged students. Teachers, however, mostly used classroom-level data to plan lessons and monitor students’ progress. Research limitations/implications The study results may be used for data use comparative studies between developing and developed countries. Practical implications Based on the findings, data use training is needed to help Kenyan schools use data to improve teachers and teaching. Originality/value Accountability and data use are at the centre of many school improvement efforts the world over. The last two decades, for example, show pressure on schools to account for the resources invested and for the education they provide to children mainly in the form of data. Regrettably, studies pay little attention to data use in schools within developing countries such as Kenya.
