As the TPACK framework has developed and received greater research and scholarly attention there has been an increasing demand for a survey instrument that can help us measure TPACK. There are now two such measures available.
We, here at Michigan State, in close collaboration with people at Iowa State, have been working on developing such a survey. This current version of the survey is now available on the TPACK.org wiki (here’s a direct link).
The key people who have worked on developing the survey are Denise A. Schmidt, Evrim Baran, Ann D. Thompson (from The Center for Technology in Learning and Teaching at Iowa State University); Matthew J. Koehler, Punya Mishra, and Tae Shin (from Michigan State).

Another survey to measure TPACK, created independently, is by Archambault, L., & Crippen, K. (2009) and has been recently published in the CITE Journal.

Hi, thank you for the good work you are doing. I am PhD candidate, and I would be grateful to have access to your survey instruments to compare with mine. thank you
The best way to access the survey is by going to tpack.org
sir i contact you earlier for this survey that i want to use i n my research …that tym you have given me the confirmation to use this as it is free to use…..sir i highly oblighed if you give me again the confirmation to use this….as its very important for me.
Yes the survey is freely available to use, as long as you use the right citation. See tpack.org for details
Hi,
I am an EdD student at UMASS- Amherst and I have a question about your survey. As the assistive technology professional in a large urban district, I often encounter anxiety among some teachers when it comes to integrating technology into pedagogy. My question: Can your survey be used with practicing teachers. Also, are there any studies that have used it with practicing teachers?
Best,
Tim Bryant
Thanks for the article …… nice one……
I liked very much…….
Hi, I found your site when i was searching for websites related to survey. I must say, your site is good. I like the layout too, its pleasing. I don’t have much time at the moment to slowly read your blog but I have noted it and I also registered for your RSS feed. I will return in a day or two. Thanks for a great website.
