Microsoft Partners in Learning School Research to measure and develop 21st Century teaching and learning in your school

What does the research involve?

Microsoft’s Partners in Learning School Research is a self-assessment survey research system that helps educators and school leaders understand and measure innovative teaching practices that develop the skills students need for life and work in the 21st Century.

A school leader signs up on this website.

A research leader from the school sends out the survey to all educators and school leaders in the school.

Each educator and school leader takes a 15 to 20 minute online survey about innovative teaching practices.

Once the surveys have been completed, a research report based on the responses is sent to the research leader within 24 hours, who can then share it.

The report shows measures of innovative teaching practices in the school and examples of innovative teaching practices.

The surveys can be repeated each year to track and measure progress.
