Terms of Clearance:
OMB appreciates the diligence NCES has displayed in working within the international process to improve the survey items. NCES should continue to apprise OMB periodically on the progress of the main study, and should take proactive steps to alert OMB of any difficulties in later stages of the study that may arise, particularly so that OMB's Chief Statistician can participate in upcoming OECD meetings with full knowledge of status and any concerns.

Abstract:
TALIS (Teaching and Learning International Survey) is an international survey of the teaching workforce, teaching as a profession, and the learning environments of schools. Data are collected through questionnaires from individual teachers and their school principals in lower secondary schools (grades 7, 8 and 9) in the United States. TALIS' main objective is to help countries review current policy and develop informed education policy by providing accurate and relevant international indicators on teachers and teaching. TALIS offers an opportunity for teachers and school principals to provide their perspectives on the state of education in their own countries. Both teacher and principal questionnaires include questions about teacher and principal background and characteristics; teacher and principal professional development; school leadership; teacher appraisal and feedback; teachers' instructional beliefs and pedagogical practices; school climate; student characteristics as perceived by the teacher; teacher efficacy; and teacher and principal job satisfaction. TALIS is sponsored by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and managed in the United States by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). This submission requests OMB's clearance for the spring 2013 main study data collection.
