Abstract
The Teacher Educator Technology Survey v1.0 is a 12-item Likert-type instrument developed during 2018 based on the Teacher Educator Technology Competencies (TETCs). This instrument was administered to a convenience sample of 83 participants at the Society for Information Technology in Education Annual Conference in 2018, in Washington, D.C. Initial analyses of these pilot test data indicate that the instrument exhibits high internal consistency reliability (> .9) for this type of clientele and credible construct validity. These findings led the researchers to conclude that the instrument is worthy of further use in additional studies.
