  • If an item can be linked to more than one perspective, capital X denotes the main perspective. The naming of the items indicates whether they were taken from Questionnaire 1 (labeled with a hashtag) or newly constructed (labeled without hashtag) T3# T8# T10 T15# T18# T20# T22 T23 T24 T25_1 T25_2 Teaching practices Teachers’ beliefs Assessment practices x x x x x x x x X X X x x x x the second. This was not always possible since the first questionnaire referred to ERT during the first lockdown period (March–May 2020) when all schools in the three coun- tries were closed. However, the second questionnaire, administered in June 2021, referred to the school year after the first lockdown period (Sept 2020-June 2021) in which the situation at schools varied from full school closure to alternating online and face-to-face teaching and to hybrid teaching due to student absence. Therefore, we adapted items and constructed new items that better captured the new situation. Table 1 provides an overview of the items for the second questionnaire and their cor- respondence to the three perspectives. If an item addresses multiple perspectives, an upper-case X indicates the main perspective. As item types, we used multiple-choice, multiple-response, Likert-type items and slider bars. Items referring to teachers’ confi- dence had a 0–100 scale format, as recommended by Bandura (2006). We designed the questionnaire in English and translated it into German and Dutch. Although Dutch is spoken in the Netherlands as well as in Flanders, the questionnaire was localized according to differences in available technology, in commonly used vocabulary, et cetera. Despite these localizations, we carefully maintained the common meaning of questionnaire items.
