I. Abstract
NASA’s founding legislation, the
Space Act of 1958, as amended, directs
the agency to expand human knowledge
of Earth and space phenomena and to
preserve the role of the United States as
a leader in aeronautics, space science,
and technology. The NASA Office of
Education administers the agency’s
national education activities in support
of the Space Act, including the
performance measurement and
evaluation of educational projects and
programs.
This generic clearance will allow the
NASA Office of Education to test and
pilot with subject matter experts,
secondary students, higher education
students, educators, and interested
parties new and existing information
collection forms and assessment
instruments for the purposes of
improvement and establishing validity
and reliability characteristics of the
forms and instruments. Forms and
instruments to be tested include
program application forms, customer
satisfaction questionnaires, focus group
protocols, and project activity survey
instruments. Methodological testing will
include focus group discussions, pilot
surveys to test new individual question
items as well as the complete form and
instrument. In addition, test-retest and
similar protocols will be used to
determine reliability characteristics of
the forms and instruments.
Methodological testing will assure that
forms and instruments accurately and
consistently collect and measure what
they are intended to measure and that
data collection items are interpreted
precisely and consistently, all towards
the goal of accurate Agency reporting
while improving the execution of NASA
Education project activities.

NASA’s founding legislation, the
Space Act of 1958, as amended, directs
the Agency to expand human
knowledge of Earth and space
phenomena and to preserve the role of
the United States as a leader in
aeronautics, space science, and
technology. The NASA Office of
Education has three primary goals (1)
strengthen NASA and the Nation’s
future workforce, (2) attract and retain
students in science, technology,
engineering and mathematics, or STEM,
disciplines, and (3) engage Americans in
NASA’s mission. This regular clearance
will enable the NASA Office of
Education to fulfill federally mandated
reporting on its education activities and
investments portfolio as well as selected
Agency annual performance indicators.
This information collection will
consist of individual-level data such as
user profile and program application
demographic information submitted by
participants in NASA project activities.
Participants include educators, and
secondary, undergraduate, graduate, and
post-graduate students.
