In response to your inquiry, Brad, you may find such instruments at 
Project Star's website. They also have guidelines for developing measures, 
but you may want to write to them directly to ask about the availability 
of specific instruments. A URL that will get you there is:

I'm trying to locate survey instruments for use with literacy volunteers 
in elementary schools, e.g., the volunteer's perception of impact of 
their work, satisfaction with their responsibilities, and how prepared 
they feel. I'm also interested in instruments that assess teacher 
satisfaction with the work of literacy volunteers, teacher perceptions 
of the impact of the literacy volunteer's work, teacher role in 
selecting the volunteer, and the extent to which the volunteer's skills 
match the teacher's needs. If anyone is aware of survey instruments of 
this type used for adult literacy that might be adaptable to elementary 
school use, I'd be interested in learning about those also. Thanks.
