The Fast Response Survey System (FRSS) 109 – a survey on teachers’ use of technology for school and homework
assignments in public schools – is conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). NCES is
conducting FRSS 109 as part of the IES response to the request in the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 (ESSA, 20
U.S.C. §6301 et seq.) to provide information about the educational impact of access to digital learning resources (DLRs)
outside of the classroom. The expanding use of technology affects the lives of students both inside and outside the
classroom. Thus, the role of technology in education is an increasingly important area of research. While access to
technology can provide valuable learning opportunities to students, technology by itself does not guarantee successful
outcomes. Schools and teachers play an important role in successfully integrating technology into teaching and
learning. Findings from the FRSS 109 study will provide insight on the types and availability of DLRs outside of the
classroom, and will contribute to IES legislatively mandated report on the educational impact of access to DLRs outside
the classroom. To provide the needed data, FRSS 109 will collect nationally representative data from public school
teachers about their use of DLRs for teaching, and how their knowledge and beliefs about their students’ access to
DLRs outside the classroom affect the assignments they give. The survey will focus on information that can best be
provided by teachers from their perspective and direct interaction with students. FRSS 109 will provide national
statistics on: (1) Teachers’ knowledge and beliefs about students’ access to technology for doing school assignments
outside of school; (2) Barriers and challenges teachers believe their students face in using technology for class
assignments outside of school; and (3) Computers that the district or school may make available to students for use
outside of class time. The request to conduct FRSS 109 preliminary activities, including teacher list collection and
district recruitment, was approved in March 2018 (OMB# 1850-0857 v.2-3). This request is to amend the FRSS 109
preliminary activities communication plan with a letter to school district superintendents.
