dissemination of information concerning its activities and the results 
thereof,'' and to enhance public understanding of, and participation 
in, the nation's aeronautical and space program in accordance with the 
NASA Strategic Plan. The NASA Office of STEM Engagement (OSTEM) 
administers the agency's national stem engagement and education 
activities in support of the Space Act, including the performance 
assessment and evaluation of OSTEM projects, programs and NASA STEM 
engagement investments. This generic clearance will allow the NASA 
OSTEM 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 Student STEM 
Inventory (Grades 4-12), NASA OSTEM Educator Professional Development 
(EPD) Pre- and Post-Workshop Learning Assessment (Surveys), NASA 
Internship Program Evaluation (Internship Retrospective Survey, 
Internship Experience Survey, and Semi-Structured Focus Group 
Protocol), NASA CONNECTS Evaluation Survey and Focus Group Protocol, 
MUREP Outcome Student Participant and Principal Investigator Focus 
Group Protocols. 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.
