LoTi Digital-Age Survey

Plan your next professional development experience with the FREE results from the LoTi Digital Age Survey. The survey is free to educators throughout the United States and you can start now! The LoTi Digital-Age Survey—based on Moersch’s LoTi Framework (1994)—is an empirically-validated tool that creates a personalized digital-age professional development profile for participants aligned to the NETS for Teachers (NETS-T) and Administrators (NETS-A). Since its inception in 1994, the LoTi Framework has been used as the basis for (1) statewide technology use surveys, (2) LoTi’s Digital-Age School improvement model, and (3) a classroom walkthrough tool impacting thousands of schools nationally.

Research
The LoTi assessment has undergone extensive research over the past 20 years and has emerged as a statistically-valid tool achieving (1) content, (2) construct, and (3) criterion validity; therefore proving that the LoTi assessment can be used to accurately diagnose instructional uses of technology and recommend professional development priorities consistent with 21st Century Skills and the NETS-T and NETS-A.

Results
The survey results include a detailed profile of suggested professional development priorities aligned to the NETS-T and NETS-A. In addition, this profile offers recommendations aligned to five popular instructional initiatives including (1) Level of Teaching Innovation (LoTi), (2) Partnership for 21st Century Skills, (3) Marzano’s Research-based Instructional Practices, (4) Daggett’s Rigor & Relevance, and (5) Webb’s Depth of Knowledge. As with all LoTi surveys, past and present, participants will also receive a separate Level of Teaching Innovation (LoTi), Current Instructional Practices (CIP), and Personal Computer Use (PCU) score.

Take the Survey Free
The LoTi Digital-Age Survey is free to all public schools in the United States.
