Type of Request: Intent to seek approval to establish an information collection for post-award output and outcome monitoring system. Abstract: Computer Science for All Researcher Practitioner Partnership (RPP) grantees are required to submit Annual Reports and Project Outcome reports to NSF that summarize the outputs, outcomes, and impact of their funded work. NSF is required by Congress to demonstrate the long-term outcomes for the CSforAll RPP initiative, defined as those that occur at least 5 years since grantees received funding. the first year where these longterm outcomes can be documented for the first CSforAll RPP cohort, funded in 2017, was 2023. This multi-year evaluation is focused on documenting the long-term outcomes for the first three cohorts of the initiative—2017, 2018, and 2019. There are a total of 73 funded grants from the three cohorts. To effectively extract and analyze the needed information to document longterm outcomes for these 73 RPP grants, a systematic review of all grantee reports of outputs, outcomes, and impacts will be conducted, following these steps: Develop a document review form. The researchers conducting the evaluation of these long-term outcomes for the three cohorts of grantees will develop and use a document review form that will include fields for recording information needed for this evaluation, guided by the required outputs, outcomes, and impacts that NSF must document in a report to Congress. The form will include all information that the researchers were able to glean from the grantees’ reports and will highlight where information is missing about each grant’s outputs and outcomes during the period of performance, and up to at least 5 years after the grant was funded. The review form will focus on the relevant outputs, outcomes, and impacts related to each of the three strands of the CSforAll RPPs initiative (preK–8, high school, and multi-grade pathways) to document the long-term outcomes for each of those strands. Review all grantee documents using the review form. The document review form will be completed and compiled by trained researchers who conduct a primary and secondary review of all relevant grantee documents related to the funded RPP, including the grantees’ reports to NSF, as well as any related publications and websites, to help ensure thoroughness, consistency, and accuracy.
