TEACHER SURVEY COVER LETTER
Dear [TEACHER NAME]:
Your school is participating in the national Evaluation of the Teacher Incentive Fund (TIF) conducted
by Mathematica Policy Research for the U.S. Department of Education. This important study will produce
valuable information on the impact of performance-based incentive programs on student achievement and
teacher and principal mobility.
As part of the study, a sample of teachers is being asked to complete a Web-based survey this spring
and annually thereafter through spring 2015. You have been selected to be included in this sample. Each
survey will take about 30 minutes of your time. This first survey is designed to learn about teachers’
understanding of the TIF program, your attitude toward it, as well as to collect demographic characteristics,
educational background, and professional experience information.
While your participation is voluntary, the information collected from teachers like you will be
extremely important to the study’s findings. We will mail you a check for $20 in appreciation of your
participation upon receipt of the completed survey this year and each subsequent year.
The information you provide in this survey will be kept strictly confidential and will not be
shared with anyone outside the study team. District officials, principals, and school staff will not
have access to the survey’s data. Responses will be presented only in aggregate form and will not
identify any individual or school.
Please use the information below to access the TIF teacher survey.

This survey is voluntary, but your response is critical for producing valid and reliable data. You may
skip any questions you do not wish to answer; however, we hope that you answer as many questions
as you can. Your answers to questions will not affect your teaching position now or in the future and
will not be shared with any members of the school or district administration or anyone else other than
the researchers. Participation in the teacher survey will not impose any risks to you as a respondent.
If you have any questions about your rights as a research volunteer, you can contact Jennifer
Stavrakos at Public/Private Ventures IRB, toll free 800-755-4778 x4410.
