To provide the needed data, FRSS 109
will collect nationally representative
data from public school teachers about
their use of DLRs for teaching, and how
their knowledge and beliefs about their
students’ access to DLRs outside the
classroom affect the assignments they
give. The survey will focus on
information that can best be provided by
teachers from their perspective and
direct interaction with students. FRSS
109 will provide national statistics on:
(1) Teachers’ knowledge and beliefs
about students’ access to technology for
doing school assignments outside of
school; (2) Barriers and challenges
teachers believe their students face in
using technology for class assignments
outside of school; and (3) Computers
that the district or school may make
available to students for use outside of
class time. This request is for FRSS 109
preliminary activities, including
securing research approval from special
contact school districts beginning in
April 2018 and obtaining teacher lists
from sampled schools beginning in
August 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Department of Education (ED), in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general
public and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed,
revised, and continuing collections of
information. This helps the Department
assess the impact of its information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. It also
helps the public understand the
Department’s information collection
requirements and provide the requested
data in the desired format. ED is
soliciting comments on the proposed
information collection request (ICR) that
is described below. The Department of
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
information to be collected; and (5) how
might the Department minimize the
burden of this collection on the
respondents, including through the use
of information technology. Please note
that written comments received in
response to this notice will be
considered public records.
Title of Collection: Impact Study of
Federally-Funded Magnet Schools.
OMB Control Number: 1850—NEW.
Type of Review: A new information
collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Individuals or Households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 179.
Total Estimated Number of Annual

Abstract: This Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) package requests
clearance for data collection activities to
support a rigorous Impact Study of
Federally-Funded Magnet Schools. The

has contracted with Mathematica Policy
Research and its subcontractor, Social
Policy Research Associates (SPR), to
conduct this evaluation (ED–IES–17–C–
0066). The evaluation includes an initial
feasibility assessment, to determine
whether an impact study can be
conducted appropriately. First, the
study team will interview fiscal year
(FY) 2016 and 2017 Magnet Schools
Assistance Program (MSAP) grantee
districts and schools to gather detailed
information on student recruitment and
admissions policies and practices,
paying particular attention to the use of
randomized lotteries for student
admissions. The feasibility phase will
result in a brief describing how MSAPfunded schools recruit and select
students for admission, a topic of
interest to the program office. Second, if
a sufficient number of students are
being admitted to these schools through
lotteries, the impact study will collect
survey data from principals and district
administrative records on admissions
lotteries and student progress. The
study would use these data to estimate
the impacts of magnet schools on
student achievement and diversity and
to describe whether particular features
of magnet schools are associated with
greater success.

Needs and Uses
The EAC issues the survey to meet its
obligations under the Help America
Vote Act (HAVA) to serve as national
clearinghouse and resource for the
compilation of information with respect
to the administration of Federal
elections; to fulfill both the EAC and
FVAP’s data collection requirements
under the UOCAVA; and meet its NVRA
mandate to collect information from
states concerning the impact of that
statute on the administration of Federal
Elections. HAVA requires the EAC to
serve as a national clearinghouse and
resource for the compilation of
information and review of procedures
with respect to the administration of
Federal Elections. This includes the
obligation to study and report on
election activities, practices, policies,
and procedures, such as methods of
voter registration, methods of
conducting provisional voting, poll
worker recruitment and training, and
such other matters as the Commission
determines are appropriate. In addition,
under the NVRA, the EAC is responsible
for collecting information and reporting,
biennially, to the United States Congress
on the impact of that statute. The
information the States are required to
submit to the EAC for purposes of the
NVRA report are found under Title 11
of the Code of Federal Regulations.
States that respond to questions in
this survey concerning voter registration
related matters will meet their NVRA
reporting requirements under 52 U.S.C.
20508 and EAC regulations. Finally, the
UOCAVA mandates that the FVAP work
with the EAC and State Chief Election
officials to develop standards for
reporting UOCAVA voting information
(52 U.S.C. 20302) and that the FVAP
will store the reported data and present
the findings within the congressionallymandated report to the President and
Congress. Additionally, UOCAVA
requires that ‘‘not later than 90 days
after the date of each regularly
scheduled general election for Federal
office, each State and unit of local
government which administered the
election shall (through the State, in the
case of a unit of local government)
submit a report to the EAC on the
combined number of absentee ballots
transmitted to absent uniformed
services voters and overseas voters for
the election and the combined number
of such ballots which were returned by
such voters and cast in the election, and
shall make such a report available to the
general public.’’ States that complete
and timely submit the UOCAVA section
of the survey to the EAC will fulfill their
UOCAVA reporting requirement under
PO 00000
Frm 00020
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

52 U.S.C. 20302. In order to fulfill the
above requirements, the EAC is seeking
information relating to the period from
the Federal general election day 2016 +1
through the November 2018 Federal
general election. The EAC will provide
the data regarding UOCAVA voting to
FVAP after data collection is completed.
This data sharing reduces burden on
local election offices because FVAP
does not have to conduct its own data
collection to meet its reporting
requirements.
