Education is especially interested in
public comment addressing the
following issues: (1) Is this collection
necessary to the proper functions of the
Department; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner;
(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;
(4) how might the Department enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the

might the Department minimize the
burden of this collection on the
respondents, including through the use
of information technology. Please note

Type of Review: New information
collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: State,

Abstract: This package requests
clearance to recruit and collect data

a study of math professional
development. The study will provide
important information about the
implementation and impact of
intensive, content-focused professional
development on fourth grade teachers’
content knowledge, classroom practice,
and their students’ achievement. The
evaluation has an experimental design
with teacher-level random assignment
of a volunteer sample of approximately
200 fourth grade teachers in six districts
to receive either the study’s Professional
Development (PD) or the district’s
‘‘business-as-usual’’ PD. Findings will
be presented in a final report scheduled
for release in February 2016.
