This instrument was developed to reflect core observation and assessment concepts reflect in the Reform Teaching Observation Protocol (RTOP) (Sawada, Pibum, Turly, Falconer, Benford, & Judson). derived from the Fennema-Sherman mathematics attitudes scales (Fennema, 1976), modified to reflect biotechnology rather than mathematics.The survey consists of a series of 52 positive and negative statements, each rated on a 6-point Likert scale.
