Abstract

With the rapid development of school ICT, students and stuffs ICT activity data are rich enough for school ICT monitor and evaluation. This paper proposes an evidence based school ICT evaluation framework, which includes four parts: data collection, data security and privacy protection, information analysis and evaluation analysis, evaluation and decision-making recommendations. Combined with the iso8000-61 data quality standard and the core elements of school ICT evaluation, the reliability of data collection technology and the availability of collected data are verified. Through interviews, the school teachers and ICT are responsible for the concerns of data security and privacy protection in the research and application of education big data. The experimental results show that the school ICT evaluation based on the fact data has outstanding performance in the aspect of problem diagnosis and the guiding significance of the evaluation conclusion, and has more practical guiding significance. At the end of the paper, some suggestions are put forward for the promotion of technical framework, data security and privacy protection.
