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
STEM Engagement 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 STEM
Engagement to continue 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. Existing information
collections include the NASA Intern
Survey (Retrospective Survey), NASA
Internship Applicants and Awardees
Survey (Retrospective Survey), STEM
Challenges Impact Surveys (Educator
Feedback Retrospective Survey), STEM
Challenges Impact Surveys (Parent
Survey), and STEM Challenges Impact
Surveys (Student Retrospective Survey).
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
STEM Engagement activities.
