The ICEQ was designed to assess student perceptions across five scales: personalization, participation, independence, investigation, and differentiation. These scales cover three dimensions: relationship, personal development, and system maintenance/system change. Ten items are provided for each of the five scales. A short form is available consisting of 25 items and a form that measures preferred classroom environment. The ICEQ has been used in schools across Australia and requires only a citation for use.
