Abstract:
Aware of the opportunity offered by ICT to ensure pre-service and in-service teachers’ training quality, education stakeholders develop more instructional sequences, training devices, etc… based on these technologies. This paper describes an experiment conducted within the framework of a pilot program for Improving Training for Quality Advancement in National Education (ITQANE) [1] in Morocco led by Creative Associate Internationals in partnership with the central unit of professional training at the Moroccan Ministry of National Education, the National Center for Innovative Pedagogy, and the Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane. ITQANE is supported by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). First, we will highlight the success of this initiative, and then present results of the first experiment towards the implementation of e-learning for pre-service teachers’ training. The program was spread in two phases: training of trainers then experimentation of e-learning modules with pre-service teachers. we assessed this e-training through the analysis of surveys conducted at the end of each phase of the project.
