Analysis of Teachers' Self-reported Pedagogical Skills in Integrating ICT
The IMYM rubric for the Self-Assessment of Pedagogical Skill in Integrating Information and Communication Technologies with Curriculum and Classroom Practice (Appendix B) allows teachers to self-assess the competency level of their skills from Beginning to Exemplary levels in ten separate pedagogical skill areas
- using educational software
- assessing student performance
- using ICT to improve student writing
- individualizing instruction
- teaching information literacy skills using resource-based learning
- using adaptive technologies
- teaching information literacy skills using primary sources
- using technology for professional learning and communication

- researching and evaluating the use of technology in education
In each of these ICT areas, teachers select from a rubric of four competency levels
- Beginning
- Developing
- Accomplished
- Exemplary
The complete rubric is found in Appendix B: Self-Assessment of Pedagogical Skill in Integrating Information and Communication Technologies with Curriculum and Classroom Practice. The figure below graphs the percentage of teachers at each level of the ten pedagogical ICT integration skills.
