Profiler’s Web-based instruments inspire cooperation and collaboration among teachers

to help them improve their skills and knowledge of technology topics. Profiler may strengthen a school district’s ability to share expertise. Taking a survey to assess district technology abilities may help to find someone who can help strengthen these skills within a school. To create a survey, just choose the type of survey you would like to use from Profiler’s survey bank. The most useful seem to be a Basic Skills Checklist that will help assess the basic technology skills of your group. Use it or modify it to meet your needs. In addition, choose from preapproved ISTE (International Society for Technology in Education) surveys for preservice and professional teachers. Creating a custom survey is easy by either inputting a survey created elsewhere or creating one from scratch. You can use questions from the Profiler question banks, including the ISTE question bank.
