2 Collaborative Partnerships for System-Wide Educational Improvement | ICSEI 2017

WELCOME DELEGATESHello! And welcome to Ottawa, Ontario, Canada – we’re so glad you’ve joined us for this 30th annual International Congress for School Effectiveness and Improvement. As your co-hosts, we are thrilled that this event we’ve been planning for such a long time is finally upon us!

There’s a lot of excitement around our theme for this Congress - “Collaborative Partnerships for System-Wide Educational Improvement” – as evidenced by the calibre of the international speakers and the hundreds of submissions we received last summer! When you look at the program, you’ll see that we’ve provided you with a huge sampling of formats and content, organized under our sub-themes and connected to ICSEI’s networks. Note, too, that we have dozens of posters on display - and they’ll be changing regularly so that work connected to each of the networks is featured all at once - so be sure to drop by the poster lounge often.

Whichever sessions you attend, we hope you’ll see the thread of partnerships between and among the various participants in international education systems – students, parents, communities, schools, districts, government, and academics – and the power they have to inform and impact student learning, practitioner professional learning, and system leadership.

We would like to express our sincere appreciation to the many people who made this conference possible. First, to the ICSEI board led by President Michael Schratz and managed by Executive Director Jenny Lewis - thank you for giving us the opportunity to host this momentous event. Thanks also to the dozens who volunteered to review proposals and to chair sessions. They are too numerous to name! The Congress Organizing Committee was made up of sub-committees led by the following colleagues:

• Joan Oracheski–Registration,Venue&Logistics • Linda Nicolson – PR & Advertising •Gilles Latour–PartnershipsandFinance • Chris Suurtamm & Doris McWhorter – •Sarah Russell – Hospitality/School Connections Education Program

The work of each of these sub-committees was carried out by volunteers from across the province and around the world, representing dozens of supporting organizations.

We owe a debt of gratitude to Ottawa Tourism - they have been a huge support right from the start! And thanks also to the staff of the Delta Ottawa City Centre and the Marriott Ottawa for working with us over the past many months to make this a great place to gather. We are also grateful for the outstanding support of our event planners from Enterprise Canada – Dave and Margaret and the team stepped in this fall and have helped us pull it all together.

Please be sure to connect with our sponsors – we greatly value their monetary and in-kind support. There is more information about them later in the program.

And finally, thank you to all the educators, policy makers and scholars who have taken the time to network and share their work with all of us. We appreciate the chance to learn from and with you. And ultimately, that is what ICSEI is all about. To quote ICSEI President Michael Schratz: “it takes the wisdom and experience of many to create a better world.” We dare to hope this conference takes us all one step further down the path of better outcomes for all.

Sincerely,

Christine Suurtamm Doris McWhorter ICSEI 2017 Co-Chair & Professor, University of Ottawa ICSEI 2017 Co-Chair & Director (retired), Ontario Ministry of Education


PrESiDEnT’S MESSAGE Welcome to ICSEI 2017 in Ottawa, Canada’s capital. Both Canada and ICSEI will celebrate significant events this year – Canada its 150th anniversary of Confederation, ICSEI its 30th anniversary of becoming a committed global network of diverse expertise and professional capital. Ontario has a unique tradition in educational reform and is internationally recognized as an equitable, high-achieving and continuously improving province. Since its visionary beginning, ICSEI has grown into a global organization and resilient network. It focuses on making schools around the world excellent and equitable by bringing together researchers, policy makers and educators, and creating the space for creative thinking and prototyping innovative practices for learning on all system levels.

This year, colleagues from 41 countries will gather at this event and share knowledge and experience from various perspectives, each motivated by a vigorous commitment to improve educational opportunities for all. This year’s conference theme, “Collaborative Partnerships for System-Wide Educational Improvement,” will offer a multitude of opportunities to question how schools and education systems position their future in the decisions they make today.

Participating in this Ottawa Congress offers us the chance to share our wealth of profound expertise in education, and enables the ICSEI network to grow and enhance a collective body of wisdom. Complex social challenges - as we are experiencing them around the globe in a rapidly increasing pace - demand new forms of learning to find adequate solutions. Networks as resilient webs of shared expertise based on collaboration and believing in co-creation, offer complex learning environments that shape pathways to robust next practice: the more variable the environments get, the more variable an organization needs to be to be able to respond to unpredictable phenomena or unexpected happenstances in the emerging future.

As educators, in our roles as policy makers, teachers, principals, facilitators, networkers, teacher educators or researchers, we need to question the “how,” the “what,” and the “what for” of education, in relation to its impact on the lives and well-being of children as capable agents of their lives, as citizens of a global world, and as future decision makers and power brokers.

The organizing team have put together an inspiring program which offers plentiful learning experiences in the search for new questions and creative answers with regard to equity, engagement and professional learning. This conference provides a space for profoundly addressing the challenges of school effectiveness and improvement, educational innovation and transformation, excellence and equity from the perspectives of educational policy, theory and practice. It holds the space to question how to enhance educative experiences which enable young people to become the persons they can be with dignity, respect, trust and honour. Let us share ideas about enabling learners and educators alike to embrace diversity while reaching out for yet unknown possibilities.

A warm thank you to the Ottawa team for all their effort, and a warm welcome to all participating in an exciting and effective conference, and for sharing their knowledge and wisdom in making “excellent education for all” our ultimate goal.

Professor Dr. Michael Schratz Dean, School of Education, University of Innsbruck ICSEI President 2015-2017


SESSiOn DESCriPTiOnSPresentations are formatted in one of seven ways:

Symposium A symposium provides an opportunity to examine specific research issues, problems, or topics from a variety of perspectives. They may present alternative solutions, interpretations, or contrasting points of view on a specific subject, or in relation to a common theme. Often they feature a panel discussion format. Frequently interactive, a large portion of the session may be devoted to dialogue among the presenters and discussant, questions and discussion among all those present, or small-group interaction. Symposia are 90 minutes in length.

Innovate Innovate sessions provide an opportunity to showcase innovative and creative approaches to practice. Presenters are encouraged to consider alternative formats if a traditional mode isn’t ideal. Innovate sessions last 30 minutes.

Paper In this format, authors present abbreviated versions of their papers, followed by comments/critique and audience discussion. A typical structure for a session with four or five papers is approximately five minutes for the chair’s introduction, 10 minutes per author presentation, 20 minutes for critique, and 15 minutes for discussion. Paper sessions are scheduled for one hour.

Poster Poster sessions combine the graphic display of materials with the opportunity for individualized, informal discussion of the research. Individual presenters set up displays representing their papers in a large area with other presenters. This year, posters are displayed together based on network affiliation.

Workshop Workshops offer a forum for discussion of a broad range of emerging and specialized topics of interest to the ICSEI community. Workshops are more interactive and informal than paper sessions, and they can involve extended discussion, group brainstorming sessions, mini-tutorials around key ideas, and proof-of-concept demonstration sessions. Workshops last for one hour.

Roundtable Roundtable presentations allow for extended discussion among a small group. Roundtables are excellent venues for giving and receiving targeted feedback, engaging in in-depth discussions, and meeting colleagues with similar interests. Roundtables are one hour in length.

Showcase Each year, we highlight some of the many countries that comprise ICSEI, wherein participants attending from that country can focus on its national educational achievements and issues. This year, we are featuring Singapore, hosts of ICSEI 2018, and countries from Africa and Asia engaged with the Aga Khan Development Network.


COnfErEnCE Sub-ThEMESEngaging Students, Families and Communities This strand focuses on the shared interests of schools, families and communities in advancing student learning, development and well-being. There is a particular emphasis in this strand on collaborative strategies to engage students, to invite and respect student voice, and to involve families and communities as integral partners in enhancing school and systems effectiveness.

Increasing Equity and Challenging Disadvantage ICSEI has a long standing interest in identifying and addressing inequities and disadvantage in and through schooling. This strand is concerned with global and current perspectives on persisting and emerging inequities in education, and the reciprocal learning and action required to address these inequities. In particular, there is a focus on valuing learning that can be drawn from Indigenous perspectives as a way to enhance understanding and shared perspectives.

Connecting Research, Policy and Practice This strand speaks to increasing opportunities in education for practitioners, researchers, political leaders and policy makers to engage with one another to understand and respect one another’s contexts, and to make more effective use of assets and experiences through reciprocal relationships. We will also seek to establish greater clarity on the nature of knowledge mobilization, how it can be useful to support and scale up effective practices in context-sensitive ways, and its level of uptake and usefulness for evidence-informed decision-making in education.

System and School Improvement This strand focuses on contemporary evidence concerning school and system improvements from a range of localities, sectors and international contexts. This strand encourages research attending to specific cultural, political, social and economic educational contexts, processes and outcomes, for local communities, schools and classrooms.

Developing Professional Capital The development of professional capital – the human, social and decisional capital – of educators is central to debates concerning new forms of professionalism and the development of formal and informal leadership throughout education systems. Increasingly teacher leadership is an important area of development, alongside school and system leadership. In order to support students to succeed, appropriate professional learning is required to assist school improvement and effectiveness. This strand is concerned with all aspects of educational leadership and professional learning.

Measuring Educational Effectiveness Global discussions on defining and measuring educational effectiveness have been long standing; recent methodological, theoretical and empirical advances have further contributed to these debates. This strand seeks papers that explore the ‘what’ and ‘how’ of measuring educational effectiveness, including broader measures of learning, equity, well-being and achievement. The strand includes original studies presenting new methods and evidence concerning school and system effectiveness.


iCSEi nETWOrkSICSEI networks provide an international forum for the exchange of information and dialogue on critical issues though active discussion among researchers, practitioners, and policy makers, both online and at ICSEI conferences.

There are five active networks (described below).The networks consist of groups within ICSEI that were already forming and holding events between regular annual meetings. Since 2006 the networks have been officially recognized and more closely tied to ICSEI. During annual conferences, each network hosts meetings open to preregistered conference participants, organizes preconference workshops (held this year on January 7), and supports the presentation of papers and symposia specific to their focus areas. ICSEI members are encouraged to join the networks to strengthen and facilitate the sharing of thoughts, experiences, and challenges, and to build professional learning communities.

The Five NetworksEducational Leadership (EL) The Educational Leadership (EL) Network is for leaders at all levels: in practice, policy, and research. The focus is on sharing and advancing the creation of knowledge in the field of educational leadership, drawing on perspectives from around the globe. The network includes members from all over the world, who currently strive to examine how educational leadership aimed at school effectiveness and strengthening the quality of teaching and learning is enacted and studied in various country contexts. The aim of this work is to identify emerging themes of interest in the field of educational leadership, in and around schools, for policy, practice, and research.

Methods of Researching Educational Effectiveness (MoRE) The Methods of Researching Educational Effectiveness (MoRE) Network focuses on presenting and interpreting results of empirical studies in educational effectiveness; exchanging ideas for research in effectiveness and evaluation of improvement programs; developing research proposals for studies in educational effectiveness, especially international comparative studies; discussing problems encountered in educational effectiveness research and identifying possible solutions; identifying new research methods for issues unique to educational effectiveness; and contributing to the establishment of a databank of research instruments used in educational effectiveness studies.

Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) The Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) Network consists of a conglomerate of practitioners, researchers and policy makers having attended ICSEI since the beginning of the network in 2008. Globally, there’s an increased focus on the economic, as well as human, benefits of children attending quality ECEC-institutions at a young age. The degree of expansion varies tremendously leaving room for co-national learning. The ECEC network serves as a platform for getting quick access to, and exchanging knowledge about, the rapid development of Early Childhood Education and Care around the world, and especially in the countries that network members represent. Since most members are unable to attend the Congress on a regular basis, the network is updated once a year and Congress participants, working with ECEC matters, are welcome to join the network.


3P (Policymakers, Politicians, and Practitioners) Practitioners (e.g., teachers, principals, administrators, consultants, and trainers) often work in isolation, but frequently they are required to collaborate with policy makers and politicians. Partnerships among these groups are the focus of the 3P (Policymakers, Politicians, and Practitioners) Network. It is important to emphasize capacity building so that as local educational and children’s services policies are developed, they stimulate and facilitate school improvement, which then becomes integrated into the broader construct of health, well-being, and community and lifelong learning. The 3P Network is a professional practice and research network for all professionals engaged in the policy determination, planning, and delivery of educational and other services to children, young people, and families.

Data Use The Data Use Network brings together researchers, policy makers, and practitioners working in the field of data-based decision making. The focus is on the use of data, such as assessments, observations, and surveys, to improve education at the school, classroom, and individual student levels. Important topics for the network are aspects of policy or practice with regard to data use that have positive impacts in different countries’ contexts; factors that hinder or enable the use of data; effects and side effects of data use; definitions of effective data use (i.e., what does data use in different countries look like); support of schools in the use of data; and characteristics of effective professional development in the use of data.

The Office of Academic Partnerships at Algonquin College is focused on helping Grade 11 and 12 high school students find and follow their vocational pathways. We work to create links between secondary learning and college opportunities, helping prepare students to transition successfully into postsecondary and beyond. Through funding from the School College Work initiative, we partner with school boards to provide two broad categories of experiences, Dual Credits and Activities. Dual Credits allow students to register in college courses or apprenticeship training while still in high school, potentially earning a credit at both institutions. Activities offer students in Grades 7-10 an opportunity to take part in hands-on experiences within various fields of study.

Our goal is to work collaboratively with our school board partners to provide students with engaging programs and appropriate supports to ensure both secondary and postsecondary success.
