TTQ

Teaching and Technology Questionnaire (TTQ)

Teaching and Technology Questionnaire (TTQ; in Dutch Vragenlijst Onderwijs, Leren en Ict) has been developed and tested by a group of researchers from Leiden University, Utrecht University and Oberon research and consultancy in the Netherlands. The context is an initiative of the Dutch government to enhance the use of technology in secondary schools in a more learner-centered way. Schools were invited to submit their proposals and 59 secondary schools received finances to develop and implement various school-based innovations on learner-centered teaching with technology. These innovations were in different phases of implementation, ranging from initial developments to continuing innovations that were tried out in earlier years. The success of these innovations heavily depended on the teachers who should apply these in their classes. Therefore, a questionnaire has been developed to measure teachers’ beliefs about teaching and technology, which could provide information for selecting, matching or supporting groups of teachers linked to the technology innovations schools would like to implement.
