objectives of EffecTive

To develop and refine a methodology to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of different teacher PDC training policies on teachers' practice and student learning (WP3) and validate the methodology in 12 teacher training interventions in five countries (Estonia, Finland, Austria, Germany, Israel) to prevent inequalities and promote equal opportunities for students (WP2)

To gather evidence and improve the knowledge of important factors that influence the effectiveness and efficiency of teacher training approaches to transform teacher professional development and student learning (WP1-WP4).

To propose a cost-benefit framework for teacher training interventions and a tool to conduct cost-effectiveness analysis for future decisions to select between different policy interventions regarding training to support teachers’ PDC, which help to identify training policies ensuring an efficient use of public resources (WP4).

Together with different stakeholders to co-create policy recommendations for future evaluations and actions in the field of education and training of teachers’ PDC that improve learning outcomes as well as equity and inclusion of those systems (WP5).

About the project

The general assumption of the EffecTive project is that by improving teachers’ pedagogical digital competence (PDC), the quality of education can be raised in all levels of education. The main aim of EffecTive is to identify and understand the conditions to improve teachers’ PDC, considering the conditions' effectiveness and efficiency.

We define effectiveness as a positive impact of the training on the quality of education (improved teachers’ PDC, students’ learning outcomes, inclusive learning environment). We define (cost) efficiency as the best way to transform the costs to benefits.

EffecTive aims to (1) evaluate selected policy measures in the field of teacher PDC in five countries as well as (2) the efficiency and cost effectiveness of the related elements of 12 training interventions on teachers’ PDC and student learning outcomes as well as measures of equity and inclusion.

We aim to foster the cooperation between policy institutions

and teacher training institutions

To enable capacity building for research-policy-practice engagement and co-creation to propose the policy recommendations
