Performance Measurement (OEPM)
Program-level data system. 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.

ACTION: Notice of information collection.
AGENCY:
The National Aeronautics and
Space Administration, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent burden, invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies to take this opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing information collections, as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995.
DATES: All comments should be
submitted within 60 calendar days from
the date of this publication.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments
regarding the proposed information
collection to the Office of Information
and Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget, 725 7th Street
NW, Washington, DC 20543. Attention:
Desk Officer for NASA.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Requests for additional information or
copies of the information collection

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
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 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 notice informs
the public of NASA’s intent to review
and revise the currently approved
information collection for STEM

Challenge project activities. The request
for emergency renewal pertains to the
administration of surveys to youth in
support of the agency’s STEM challenge
activities for youth. The information
collection was previously revised to
collect the minimum amount of data
required to (1) evaluate the activity for
improvement opportunities, and (2)
collect outcome data to assess the
activity model’s effectiveness in meeting
its intended objectives. The number of
youth participating in this information
collection were previously reduced to
reflect the estimated number of
participants who will be engaged in this
activity in the future. The cost of the
information collection, to participating
members of the public, reflects a
previous reduction as a result of the
changes to the information collection
described above.
