Dear teacher,

Please take a few minutes to answer to the following questionnaire. This form is designed in order to collect valuable background information after your work in Go-Lab. Focus is given on various aspects of teaching and learning in your school: knowledge of teaching science, knowledge of instructional approaches and technologies i.e. your pedagogical experience related to computer supported inquiry learning, general technical skills.

The questionnaire filled in by a particular participant will be connected in a single portfolio using the code.

Thank you.

Note:
ILSs is the abbreviation for inquiry learning spaces
LMS is the abbreviation for Learning Management Systems

Question Title
