About TALIS 2024
The fourth Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS 2024) is an international survey that offers
the opportunity for teachers and principals to provide input into education analysis and policy development.
TALIS is being conducted by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The
United States, along with more than 50 other countries, is taking part in the survey. In the United States,
TALIS is being conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), within the U.S. Department
of Education.
International comparisons from TALIS will allow participants to identify common challenges and to learn
from other policy approaches. Principals and teachers will provide information about teaching and learning
issues such as their education and professional learning, professional and pedagogical practices,
occupational perceptions, and institutional environments and management as well as contemporary issues
for education systems such as diversity and equity, social and emotional learning of students, educational
uses of technology, and environmental and sustainability education.
Being an international survey, it is possible that some questions do not fit very well within your national
context. In these cases, please answer as best as you can.
Confidentiality
NCES is authorized to collect information from the questionnaire under the Education Sciences Reform Act of
2002 (ESRA 2002, 20 U.S.C. §9543). You do not have to provide the information requested. However, the
information you provide will help the U.S. Department of Education's ongoing efforts to understand better
how the educational system in the United States compares to that in other countries. There are no penalties
should you choose not to participate in this study. All of the information you provide may be used only for
statistical purposes and may not be disclosed, or used, in identifiable form for any other purpose except as
required by law (20 U.S.C. §9573 and 6 U.S.C. §151). Your responses will be combined with those from
other participants to produce summary statistics and reports.

About TALIS 2024
The fourth Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS 2024) is an international survey that offers the
opportunity for teachers and principals to provide input into education analysis and policy development. TALIS
is being conducted by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The United
States, along with more than 50 other countries, is taking part in the survey. In the United States, TALIS is
being conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), within the U.S. Department of
Education.
International comparisons from TALIS will allow participants to identify common challenges and to learn from
other policy approaches. Principals and teachers will provide information about teaching and learning issues
such as their education and professional learning, professional and pedagogical practices, occupational
perceptions, and institutional environments and management as well as contemporary issues for education
systems such as diversity and equity, social and emotional learning of students, educa tional uses of technology,
and environmental and sustainability education.
In the TALIS study, it is our intention to draw a picture of the different educational practices in all the
participating countries. Countries and individuals may differ in their educational approaches. We rely on your
expertise to describe your work and opinions as accurately as possible.
Being an international survey, it is possible that some questions do not fit very well within your national context.
In these cases, please answer as best as you can.
Confidentiality
NCES is authorized to collect information from the questionnaire under the Education Sciences Reform Act of
2002 (ESRA 2002, 20 U.S.C. §9543). You do not have to provide the information requested. However, the
information you provide will help the U.S. Department of Education's ongoing efforts to understand better how
the educational system in the United States compares to that in other countries. There are no penalties should
you choose not to participate in this study. All of the information you provide may be used only for statistical
purposes and may not be disclosed, or used, in identifiable form for any other purpose except as required by
law (20 U.S.C. §9573 and 6 U.S.C. §151). Your responses will be combined with those from other participants
to produce summary statistics and reports.

Education and Environmental Sustainability
The following section includes questions related to sustainability, with an emphasis on climate change.
‘Environmental sustainability’ means meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of
future generations to meet their own needs. It involves conservation of natural resources and the protection
of Earth’s ecological systems. Climate Change is one of the main threats to environmental sustainability.
‘Climate change’ encompasses global warming but also refers to a broader range of changes, including rising
sea levels, shrinking glaciers, accelerated melting of polar ice, and shifts in flower/plant blooming times as
well as its impacts on environment, economy, and society.
26.
To what extent can you do the following activities related to environmental
sustainability?
This question asks for your beliefs in your capabilities regardless of external constraints (e.g., lack of
time, resources or opportunity, restrictive regulations).

International comparisons from TALIS will allow participants to identify common challenges and to learn from
other policy approaches. Principals and teachers will provide information about teaching and learning issues
such as their education and professional learning, professional and pedagogical practices, occupational
perceptions, and institutional environments and management as well as contemporary issues for education
systems such as diversity and equity, social and emotional learning of students, educational uses of
technology, and environmental and sustainability education.
In the TALIS study, it is our intention to draw a picture of the different educational practices in all the
participating countries. Countries and individuals may differ in their educational approaches. We rely on your
expertise to describe your work and opinions as accurately as possible.
Being an international survey, it is possible that some questions do not fit very well within your national
context. In these cases, please answer as best as you can.
Confidentiality
NCES is authorized to collect information from the questionnaire under the Education Sciences Reform Act of
2002 (ESRA 2002, 20 U.S.C. §9543). You do not have to provide the information requested. However, the
information you provide will help the U.S. Department of Education's ongoing efforts to understand better how
the educational system in the United States compares to that in other countries. There are no penalties should
you choose not to participate in this study. All of the information you provide may be used only for statistical
purposes and may not be disclosed, or used, in identifiable form for any other purpose except as required by
law (20 U.S.C. §9573 and 6 U.S.C. §151). Your responses will be combined with those from other participants
to produce summary statistics and reports.

Teaching in the Target Class
In the following, we want to get into more detail about your teaching practices. Within this questionnaire,
we cannot cover the whole scope of your teaching. Therefore, we use an exemplary approach and focus on
the teaching of one class.
The following questions ask you about a particular class that you teach. The class that we would like you to
respond to is the first 7th, 8th, or 9th grade class that you taught in this school after 11 a.m. last Tuesday.
Please note that if you do not teach a class at the 7th, 8th, or 9th grade on Tuesday, this can be a class taught
on a day following the last Tuesday.
In the questions below, this class will be referred to as the target class.
33. How many students are currently enrolled in this target class?
Please enter a number.

B-96
34. We would like to understand the composition of the target class. Please estimate the broad
percentage of students who have the following characteristics.
This question asks about your personal perception of student background. It is acceptable to base your
replies on rough estimates.
Students may fall into multiple categories.
‘Students with special education needs’ are those for whom a special education need has been formally
identified due to mental, physical, or emotional characteristics. Often they will be those for whom additional
public or private resources (personnel, material or financial) have been provided to support their education.
‘Socioeconomically disadvantaged homes’ refers to homes lacking the basic necessities of life, such as
adequate income, housing, nutrition or medical care.
‘Ethnic/national minorities or Indigenous communities’ refer to groups that are a result of historical dynamics
and/or shared characteristics that correspond to geographical location and ancestral origins, cultural
traditions, religious beliefs, social norms, shared heritage and language, and/or immigrant status and
nationality of origin.
An 'immigrant student' is one who was born outside the country. A 'student with migrant background’ has
parents who were both born outside the country.
‘Refugees’ are those who, regardless of legal status, fled to another country seeking refuge from war,
political oppression, religious persecution, or a natural disaster.

About TALIS 2024
The fourth Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS 2024) is an international survey that offers
the opportunity for teachers and principals to provide input into education analysis and policy development.
TALIS is being conducted by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The
United States, along with more than 50 other countries, is taking part in the survey. In the United States,
TALIS is being conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), within the U.S. Department
of Education.
International comparisons from TALIS will allow participants to identify common challenges and to learn from
other policy approaches. Principals and teachers will provide information about teaching and learning issues
such as their education and professional learning, professional and pedagogical practices, occupational
perceptions, and institutional environments and management as well as contemporary issues for education
systems such as diversity and equity, social and emotional learning of students, educational uses of technology,
and environmental and sustainability education.
In the TALIS study, it is our intention to draw a picture of the different educational practices in all the
participating countries. Countries and individuals may differ in their educational approaches. We rely on your
expertise to describe your work and opinions as accurately as possible.
Being an international survey, it is possible that some questions do not fit very well within your national context.
In these cases, please answer as best as you can.
Confidentiality
NCES is authorized to collect information from the questionnaire under the Education Sciences Reform Act of
2002 (ESRA 2002, 20 U.S.C. §9543). You do not have to provide the information requested. However, the
information you provide will help the U.S. Department of Education's ongoing efforts to understand better how
the educational system in the United States compares to that in other countries. There are no penalties should
you choose not to participate in this study. All of the information you provide may be used only for statistical
purposes and may not be disclosed, or used, in identifiable form for any other purpose except as required by
law (20 U.S.C. §9573 and 6 U.S.C. §151). Your responses will be combined with those from other participants
to produce summary statistics and reports.

Education and Environmental Sustainability
The following section includes questions related to environmental sustainability, with an emphasis on climate
change.
‘Environmental sustainability’ means meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of
future generations to meet their own needs. It involves the conservation of natural resources and the
protection of Earth’s ecological systems. Climate change is one of the main threats to environmental
sustainability.
‘Climate change’ encompasses global warming but also refers to a broader range of changes, including rising
sea levels, shrinking glaciers, accelerated melting of polar ice, and shifts in flower/plant blooming times as
well as its impacts on environment, economy, and society.

Teaching in the Target Class
In the following, we want to get into more detail about your teaching practices. Within this questionnaire,
we cannot cover the whole scope of your teaching. Therefore, we use an exemplary approach and focus on
the teaching of one class.
The following questions ask you about a particular class that you teach. The class that we would like you to
respond to is the first 7th, 8th and/or 9th grade class that you taught in this school after 11 a.m. last Tuesday.
Please note that if you do not teach a class at the 7th, 8th and/or 9th grade level on Tuesday, this can be a
class taught on a day following the last Tuesday.
In the questions below, this class will be referred to as the target class.
32. How many students are currently enrolled in this target class?
Please enter a number.
Students
B-136
33. We would like to understand the composition of the target class. Please estimate the broad
percentage of students who have the following characteristics.
This question asks about your personal perception of student background. It is acceptable to base your
replies on rough estimates.
Students may fall into multiple categories.
‘Students with special education needs’ are those for whom a special education need has been formally
identified due to mental, physical, or emotional characteristics. Often they will be those for whom additional
public or private resources (personnel, material, or financial) have been provided to support their education.
‘Socioeconomically disadvantaged homes’ refers to homes lacking the basic necessities of life, such as
adequate income, housing, nutrition, or medical care.
‘Ethnic/national minorities or Indigenous communities’ refers to groups that are a result of historical
dynamics and/or shared characteristics that correspond to geographical location and ancestral origins,
cultural traditions, religious beliefs, social norms, shared heritage and language, and/or immigrant status and
nationality of origin.
An ‘immigrant student’ is one who was born outside the country. A ‘student with migrant background’ has
parents who were both born outside the country.
‘Refugees’ are those who, regardless of legal status, fled to another country seeking refuge from war,
political oppression, religious persecution, or a natural disaster.
