Title of Collection: Impact Evaluation of Data Driven Instruction Professional Development for Teachers. OMB Control Number: 1850—NEW. Type of Review: A new information collection. Respondents/Affected Public: Individuals or Households, State, Local and Tribal Governments. Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 343. Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 260. Abstract: This OMB package requests clearance for data collection activities for a rigorous evaluation of data-driven instruction (DDI) in 104 schools from 12 school districts. Data-driven instruction involves the use of student assessment data to help teachers adapt their instruction and, ultimately, improve student achievement. The study’s intervention plan will build school capacity for DDI by: (1) Helping schools set up structures and processes that enable teachers and other school staff to efficiently carry out data-driven instruction, and (2) training and coaching teachers in the skills needed to understand student data and implement improved instructional strategies to address student needs. We plan to collect student records and teacherassignment data from participating districts and schools, and conduct a teacher survey, teacher logs, and a principal survey. The evaluation’s main objectives are to understand how DDI is implemented and to rigorously estimate the impact of a comprehensive DDI program on student achievement and teacher and principal practices.
