The Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) is an international survey of teachers and principals that
focuses on the working conditions of teachers and the teaching and learning practices in schools. TALIS was first
administered in 2008 and is conducted every five years. Having participated in 2013 but not in 2008, the United States
will administer TALIS for the second time in 2018. TALIS is sponsored by the Organization for Economic Cooperation
and Development (OECD). In the United States, TALIS is conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics
(NCES), of the Institute of Education Sciences within the U.S. Department of Education. TALIS 2018 will address teacher
training and professional development, teachers’ appraisal, school climate, school leadership, teachers’ instructional
approaches, and teachers’ pedagogical practices. In February 2017, TALIS 2018 field test will be conducted to evaluate
newly developed teacher and school questionnaire items and test the survey operations. NCES’s request to recruit and
conduct pre-survey activities for the 2017 field test sample, administer the field test, and recruit schools for the 2018
main study sample was approved in September 2016 (1850-0888 v.5). This request amends the TALIS 2018
Recruitment and Field Test record with the final versions of the adapted U.S. versions of the TALIS 2018 field trial
questionnaires. We are announcing a second 30-day comment period for the TALIS 2018 Field Test to include additional
survey items in the field test questionnaires, as recently stipulated by OECD.
