The United States Patent and
Trademark Office (USPTO) will submit
the following information collection
request to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for review and clearance
in accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, on or after the
date of publication of this notice. The
USPTO invites comments on this
information collection renewal, which
helps the USPTO assess the impact of
its information collection requirements
and minimize the public’s reporting
burden. Public comments were
previously requested via the Federal
Register on May 13, 2024 during a 60day comment period (89 FR 41396).
This notice allows for an additional 30
days for public comment.
Agency: United States Patent and
Trademark Office, Department of
Commerce.
Title: National Summer Teacher
Institute (NSTI) and Master Teacher of
Invention and Intellectual Property
Education Program (MTIP).
OMB Control Number: 0651–0077.
Needs and Uses: The United States
Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO)
conducts the National Summer Teacher
Institute (NSTI) on Innovation, STEM,
and Intellectual Property. This program,
which focuses on innovation, STEM,
entrepreneurship, and intellectual
property, is offered in support of
USPTO’s ongoing education and
outreach programming and Department
of Commerce Innovation initiatives. The
Institute, launched in 2014, is part of
the USPTO’s ongoing efforts to foster
innovation, competitiveness and
economic growth, domestically and
abroad, by providing relevant
intellectual property, innovation, and
invention education resources to school
administrators, teachers, students, and
parents.
In 2023, USPTO introduced the
Master Teacher of Invention and
Intellectual Property Education Program
(MTIP) (previously published as Master
Teacher in Intellectual Property
Program in the 60-day notice) to align
and support the USPTO’s mission to
foster innovation, competitiveness,
domestic and international economic

growth, and deliver invention IP
training to educators across the nation.
The MTIP builds a network of qualified
NSTI participants and intellectual
property educators and enables them to
become teacher-leaders. These teacher
leaders in turn provide professional
development to U.S. educators who seek
to learn more about invention and IP
education. MTIP teacher-leaders share
USPTO resources and practical
classroom experience they learned
through their implementation of lessons
learned at the NSTI.
USPTO facilitates the enhancement of
internal and external relations,
including stakeholder partnerships and
collaborations, and support for
Government-wide efforts to promote
STEM education initiatives. In order to
obtain a broad range of participants for
the NSTI and MTIP, the USPTO must
collect data related to courses taught,
teaching experience, and school district
demographics.
Both NSTI and MTIP combine
experiential training tools, practices,
and project-based learning models to
support elementary, middle, and high
school teachers in incorporating
concepts of making, inventing,
entrepreneurship, and innovation into
classroom instruction. Recent focuses
include the creation and protection of
intellectual property; including
inventions, knowledge discovery,
creative ideas, and expressions of the
human mind that may have commercial
value and are protectable under patent,
trademark, copyright, or trade secret
laws. Intellectual property is modeled as
both a teaching and learning platform to
help inspire and motivate student
achievement in science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics.
This information collection covers
data gathered from applicants and
participants in the NSTI and MTIP
programs. The USPTO gathers this
information from program applications,
and participant surveys, workshops, and
webinars. The application collects data
which the USPTO uses to determine
who will be accepted into the respective
programs. The participant survey is
used to gather feedback from
participants for future program
enhancements, while the webinar
survey allows the USPTO to understand
the particular needs and interests of
participants.
To account for the recent addition of
the MTIP program, the name of this
information collection has been changed
from ‘‘National Summer Teacher
Institute’’ to ‘‘National Summer Teacher
Institute (NSTI) and Master Teacher of
Invention and Intellectual Property
Education Program (MTIP)’’.
