In Spring 2006,
the LoTi assessment was the topic of an extensive validation study conducted by Dr. Jill Stoltzfus, formerly the Managing Director of MAR*TEC (Mid-Atlantic Regional Technology in Education Consortium). Content validity was previously established with the original LoTi assessment through a representative item sampling of the survey’s different content domains. Stoltzfus' validation study focused on an expanded version of the LoTi assessment that could be used to capture the depth of teachers’ professional development needs while simultaneously determining the internal consistency (reliability) of the LoTi assessment. The LoTi assessment achieved both empirical merit and practical utility, proving to be a valid and reliable assessment tool for teachers pertaining to classroom teaching innovation.
