Abstract

Many studies have recently focused on the importance of the effective integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools in science education and the need for science teachers to receive adequate training and support to use them effectively. This paper aims to explore the Albanian science teachers’ perceptions and use of ICTs in teaching processes. The study provides an interpretative analysis of the opinions of science teachers teaching in the middle and high schools of several Albanian regions expressed in an online survey. Overall, the results suggest that the use of ICT by science teachers in Albania is limited by a lack of proper infrastructure, limited access to technology, and training of teachers on integrating technology. However, there are indications that the adoption of ICT in science education may increase in the future, particularly after the boost from the COVID-19 pandemic emergency.

评估科学教师将信息和传播技术融入教学过程的情况：阿尔巴尼亚案例

最近，许多研究都集中在信息与传播技术（ICT）工具有效融入科学教育的重要性，以及科学教师接受适当培训和支持以有效使用这些工具的必要性。本文旨在探讨阿尔巴尼亚科学教师在教学过程中对信息和传播技术的认识和使用。研究对阿尔巴尼亚多个地区初中和高中理科教师在网上调查中表达的观点进行了解释性分析。总体而言，研究结果表明，阿尔巴尼亚理科教师对信息和传播技术的使用受到了限制，原因是缺乏适当的基础设施、获取技术的途径有限以及对教师进行了整合技术的培训。不过，有迹象表明，未来在科学教育中采用信息和传播技术的情况可能会增加，特别是在 COVID-19 大流行病紧急事件的推动下。

期刊介绍： JOTSE is an international Journal aiming at publishing interdisciplinary research within the university education framework and it is especially focused on the fields of Technology and Science. JOTSE serves as an international forum of reference for Engineering education. Teaching innovation oriented, the journal will be issued twice per year (every 6 months) and will include original works, research and projects dealing with the new learning methodologies and new learning supporting tools related to the wide range of disciplines the Engineering studies and profession involve. In addition, JOTSE will also issue special numbers on more technological themes from the different areas of general interest in the industrial world, which may be used as practical cases in classroom tuition and practice. Thereby, getting the working world reality closer to the learning at University. Among other areas of interest, our Journal will be focused on: 1. Education 2.General Science (Physics, Chemistry, Maths,…) 3.Telecommunications 4.Electricity and Electronics 5.Industrial Computing (Digital, Analogic, Robotics, Ergonomics) 6.Aerospatial (aircraft design and building, engines, materials) 7. Automotive (automotive materials, automobile emissions).
