Abstract: | Schools and districts should use a well-designed needs assessment to inform important decisions about a range of technology
program areas. Presently, there is a lack of valid and reliable instruments available and accessible to schools to effectively
assess their educational needs to better design and evaluate their projects and initiatives. The School Technology Needs Assessment
(STNA) is a free, user-friendly online survey tool that meets this need for planning and formative evaluation of technology
projects in educational settings. This study used existing data from a robust sample (n = 1918) of educators from across North Carolina to examine the reliability and validity of STNA. A collective review of study
results including the literature review, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and internal
consistently reliability analysis indicated that STNA was a high-quality instrument. |
