Abstract

In order to improve the quality of technology in teacher education it is first necessary that we determine the current state of technology integration within the institution. In our case we chose to examine the use of technology by our entire faculty as well as the student body rather than just looking at those in our teacher education programs. As part of an on-going European project whose aim is to establish a Center for Distance Education Development, the University of Maribor developed a survey on use of information technology in teaching and learning at our University. In this paper we will describe the context and development of the questionnaires as well as the process of conducting the survey. Our goals and purposes of collecting the data included: (a) evaluating the current nature of experiences related to ICT shared by members of staff and students of the University of Maribor, (b) assessing the needs of the University staff in implementing new media in their professional practices (such as developing teaching material in electronic form and establishing new forms of collaboration and dissemination within the University and beyond), (c) giving foundations for developing new skills of teaching and learning in the information society. The survey was offered both in electronic and paper form to 16.000 regular and part time students and 700 faculty members.
