This data collection, a revised version of SCHOOLS AND STAFFING SURVEY, 1987-1988 [UNITED STATES]: TEACHER FOLLOWUP SURVEY, 1988-1989 (ICPSR 6270), is a follow-up to the Teacher Survey in SCHOOLS AND STAFFING SURVEY, 1987-1988 [UNITED STATES]: REVISED VERSION (ICPSR 2733). The Teacher Follow-Up Survey was designed to update data on teacher career patterns and plans and to determine attrition rates. A subsample of teachers who were in the profession during the school year 1987-1988 were queried: teachers who left the teaching profession between the school years 1987-1988 and 1988-1989 (leavers) and teachers who remained in the profession (stayers). Information in this revised collection is given separately for public school teachers (Part 1) and private school teachers (Part 2). Questions were asked on topics such as current activity, occupation, career patterns, educational pursuits, future plans, attitudes toward the teaching profession, and overall job satisfaction.

This survey is a followup to the Teacher Survey from SCHOOLS AND STAFFING SURVEY, 1990-1991: UNITED STATES and is the fifth component of the Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS), conducted one year after the base-year data collection. The 1991-1992 Teacher Followup Survey (TFS), designed to update data on teacher career patterns and plans and to determine attrition rates, queried a subsample of teachers in the profession during the school year 1990-1991 and had two components: teachers who left the teaching profession between the school years 1990-1991 and 1991-1992 (former teachers) and teachers who remained in the profession (current teachers). For both groups, questions were asked on topics such as current activity, occupation, career patterns, educational pursuits, future plans, attitudes toward the teaching profession, and overall job satisfaction. Data are also available on teachers who remained in the teaching profession but moved to different schools (movers).

The Fast Response Survey System (FRSS) was established in 1975 by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), United States Department of Education. FRSS is designed to collect issue-oriented data within a relatively short time frame. FRSS collects data from state education agencies, local education agencies, public and private elementary and secondary schools, public school teachers, and public libraries. To ensure minimal burden on respondents, the surveys are generally limited to three pages of questions, with a response burden of about 30 minutes per respondent. Sample sizes are relatively small (usually about 1,000 to 1,500 respondents per survey) so that data collection can be completed quickly. Reported data are weighted to produce national estimates of the sampled education sector. The sample size permits limited breakouts by classification variables. However, as the number of categories within the classification variables increases, the sample size within categories decreases, which results in larger sampling errors for the breakouts by classification variables. The Teachers' Use of Educational Technology in U.S. Public Schools, 2009 survey provides national estimates on the availability and use of educational technology among teachers in public elementary and secondary schools during 2009. This is one of a set of three surveys (at the district, school, and teacher levels) that collected data on a range of educational technology resources. A stratified multistage sample design was used to select teachers for this study. Data collection was conducted September 2008 through July 2009, and 3,159 eligible teachers completed the survey by web, mail, fax, or telephone. The survey asked respondents to report information on the use of computers and Internet access in the classroom; availability and use of computing devices, software, and school or district networks (including remote access) by teachers; students' use of educational technology; teachers' preparation to use educational technology for instruction; and technology-related professional development activities. Respondents reported quantities for the following: computers located in the classroom every day, computers that can be brought into the classroom, and computers with Internet access. Data on the availability and frequency of using computers and other technology devices during instructional time were also collected. Respondents reported on students' use of educational technology resources during classes and teachers' use of modes of technology to communicate with parents and students. Additional survey topics included teacher training and preparation to effectively use educational technology for instruction, and teachers' opinions related to statements about their participation in professional development for educational technology. Respondents were also asked for administrative information such as school instructional level, school enrollment size, main teaching assignment, and years of experience.
