Abstract

The current study aims to examine the validity of the classroom observation measure called the International Comparative Analysis of Learning and Teaching (ICALT) for measuring effective teaching practices across 10 contrasting education systems. It also intends to compare effective teaching practices of secondary school teachers across 10 diverse education systems. The ICALT observation instrument was used to measure effective teaching in 10 participating education systems. The SE framework and approach was used to analyse the data. Results show that the 6-factor-structure of ICALT was confirmed in nine countries except in the USA. South African, South Korean, Mongolian, and English teachers were rated lower on the basic effective teaching dimensions, but higher on the complex ones compared to Dutch teachers.
