COMPETENCES OF

GLOBAL TEACHERS
•A research was conducted by
SEAMEO INNOTECH (2010) to
identify important competencies
for teachers required by ASEAN
countries.
 •The result of this research identified
the following general areas of
competencies of teachers for 21st
century identified as part of the
Teaching Competency Framework.
1. Facilitating the development of learner's life
and career skills
2. Creating a conducive learning environment
3. Facilitating learning
4. Preparing appropriate lesson plans in line with
the school vision and mission
5. Developing higher-order thinking skills (HOTS)
6. Developing and utilizing teaching and learning
resources
7. Enhancing ethical and moral values
8. Assessing and evaluating learner performance
9. Engaging in professional
development
10. Networking with stakeholders
especially with parents
11. Managing student welfare and
other tasks
•These competencies are also parallel
with the NCBTS.

•This could mean that there is a

consensus among ASEAN countries in
the quality of teachers that they need.
•In 2010, SIREP (SEAMEO
INNOTECH Regional Education
Program) conducted a survey of
the pedagogical skills of teachers
in all the Southeast Asian
countries.
The results are the following ASEAN Teaching
Competency Standards of a competent teacher.

1. Selects or states long-term goals and short-

term measurable objectives based on a
prescribed national and/or school curriculum
2. Uses creative and innovative instructional
strategies that are appropriate to a lesson's
objectives and students' abilities, interests, and
learning styles

3. Selects and uses appropriate resources and

available technologies when teaching to suit
students' abilities, interests, and learning styles.
4. Provides guided practice as necessary and
reviews at appropriate time intervals.
5. Uses up-to-date lessons.

6. Sets learning objectives and outcomes

that match the students' real-life
situations
7. Sequentially and attractively teaches lessons
while taking account of students' learning
8. Provides students with learning opportunities

9.Uses the appropriate medium of instruction
10. Encourages self-study

11. Demonstrates understanding of the

educational context of the classroom and the

12. Assesses students' learning outcomes

These identified pedagogical
skills of teachers serve as guide
for the development, formation,
and selection of teachers in the
ASEAN region.
