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). TALIS 2018 will address teacher training and professional development, teachers’ appraisal, school climate,
school leadership, teachers’ instructional approaches, and teachers’ pedagogical practices. In February-March 2017,
NCES conducted the TALIS 2018 field test 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 with a
change request approved in December 2016 (1850-0888 v.4-5). This request provides the final versions of the TALIS
2018 main study recruitment materials.
