1. Sample

In order to collect data three target groups have been recruited.

IVET: Teachers and trainers in technical high schools. These teachers are

specialized in vocational fields and provide training for pupils at different levels.

They have a university degree and are public employees. (Berufsschullehrer)

CVET: This group is highly heterogeneous. Trainers working as freelancers,

part-time employees or full-time employed. They mostly work for private or-

ganisations. (Trainer, Coaches, Weiterbildner).

Instructors/ Technical trainers: This system at company level is very close to

the professions, strongly oriented to the professional experience. These train-

ers have a professional background, mostly not academic. (Ausbilder)

n = 79

All in all 79 persons started to fill out the survey, the response is reduced in the course

of the survey and 36 finished the survey completely.

For the telephone interviews a sample of 3 managers of technical schools who are in

charge of recruiting and evaluating teachers, has been realised.

2. Methodological notes

a) After the agreement of the final version, the questionnaire has been translated and

converted into an online- survey.

An online-survey is an internet-based form of a questionnaire. Compared with paper-

pencil- questionnaires, online-surveys are regarding the implementation and analysis

efficient in terms of time and costs. Online-surveys can be realised as personalised

and anonymous processes. For the TEVAL 2 survey an anonymous version has been

applied. In this case, the sample is composed at random. The survey participation is

facilitated though a link, which is placed on webpages, newsletters or mailing lists. As

the affiliation to a target group cannot be assured, a filter for the different target groups

has been created at the beginning of the online-questionnaire.

b) Dissemination strategies

Several dissemination strategies have been used. At first, regional partners (a repre-

sentative of the BLBS organisation for technical high school teachers and the regional

partner "Bildungsbüro Köln") have been contacted in order to establish contacts to

technical high school teachers and heads of technical schools.

Secondly, the link has been placed on the following mailing-lists and important web-

sites of teachers and trainers´ associations:

Furthermore, the German version of the survey has been published on the Teval Web-

site. http://www.teval-ii.eu/

In order to contact more people, Univation participated in a European Congress for

IVET and CVET organised by the Chambers of commerce and industry. Former pro-

ject partners in the field of IVET have been involved.

Comments: "For the majority of teachers, after their internship (Referendariat), there is stagnancy in

terms of further education. Most of the trainings organised by the employer are carried out by

bad qualified hobby- trainers. The best trainings were self organised in the field of industry/

handcraft."

Comments:

"The questions are not applicable, as vocational further educations takes place in units

of 2-3 days."

"I am working in the field of extracurricular youth education. Here we do not have as-

sessments but self-evaluation, feedback, soft targets, non-formal education."

4. Final Considerations

The Learning Process in the Organisation

The teachers rather disagree that there is an initial assessment of ability of every

learner and that the assessments cover learners' expectations and personal circum-

stances. The questions in the first part are not very applicable because there are

courses of study with legal claims. That means students have legal right to study these

courses even if they have bad school marks. There are on the other hand courses

which include initial assessments. Especially the question about the inspection reports

is difficult to answer.

The trainers rather agree that there is an initial assessment of ability but they are divided in

their opinion if the learners' assessment covers expectations and personal circumstances.

Most of the trainers think that there is a regular schedule of review. The majority of respond-

ing trainers agrees that learning outcomes are identified, documented and communicated to

learners. The same tendency is shown in the item "discussion of the exit strategy".

The instructors mostly agree there is an initial assessment of ability of every learner,

but are sceptical if the expectations and personal circumstances are covered. Learning

outcomes are identified, documented and communicated to learners.

Professionalism

In this category the answers of teachers and trainers are more similar. The profes-

sional development of teachers and trainers is characterized by their own initiative and

the strategy of the organisation. Most of the teachers and trainers think that lessons

are kept up to date with curriculum developments; this is in the case of vocational

schools/colleges ensured by the proximity of the chamber of industry and craft and the

economy.

The EQF and other European instruments do not play an important role in the day -to-

day work of schools and training centres. For schools especially it is more important to

promote the aspect of mobility and provide exchange programmes.

National context

The telephone interviews and the results of the question in the national context show a

high interest in evaluation and professional evaluation tools. Contacted schools al-

ready have experience in school evaluation and inspection and express a need for

(self) evaluation tools on the level of the practitioner.

Survey Questionnaire Evaluation training needs for teachers Lifelong Learning Innovation Transfer Project

1. Zum Projekt

TEVAL II "Innovative Evaluation Model in Teaching and Training Organizations" ist ein Pro-jekt des EU- Bildungsprogramms für lebenslanges Lernen und zielt darauf ab, die Professio-nalität der Lehre, insbesondere im berufsbildenden Bereich, zu fördern. Der Fokus liegt da-bei auf der Entwicklung eines europäischen Referenzrahmens für Lehr- und Unterrichtskom-petenzen und dem Prozess der Selbst-/Evaluation. Das LdV-TEVAL II Projekt wird von 2007- 2009 durch eine Partnerschaft aus verschiedenen Institutionen mit Evaluationsexpertise und/oder mit pädagogischem Hintergrund aus den folgenden sieben europäischen Ländern durchgeführt: Deutschland, Frankreich, Italien, Polen, Portugal, Rumänien und Großbritan-nien.

2. Zur Befragung

Diese Befragung soll Entwicklungsbedarfe im Hinblick auf Evaluationsprozesse in Schule, Aus- und Weiterbildung aufdecken. Sie ermöglicht eine Standortbestimmung und regt an, Stärken und Schwächen zu identifizieren und somit eine Grundlage für die Implementierung von Instrumenten der Personal- und Organisationsentwicklung zu schaffen.

Das TEVAL 2 Evaluationsmodell wird für Praktiker in Berufsschulen, Berufskollegs und Wei-terbildungseinrichtungen entwickelt, daher wird im Folgenden durchgehend der Begriff Lehr-personen bzw. Lehrende verwendet.

Die TEVAL 2-Partnerschaft bedankt sich herzlich für Ihre Beteiligung an der Befragung und sichert zu, dass Sie hiermit einen Beitrag zu wichtigen Entwicklungen im Feld der europäi-schen Berufsbildung leisten!

Die Beantwortung der Fragen nimmt maximal 15 Minuten in Anspruch. Die Befragung erfolgt anonym. Der Fragebogen wird nicht weitergegeben, er wird so ausgewertet, dass kein Rück-schluss auf einzelne Personen möglich ist.
