[[Page 34151]]

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 Evaluation of Data-Driven Instruction 
Professional Development for Teachers.
    OMB Control Number: 1850--NEW.
    Type of Review: A new information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Individuals or Households, State, 
Local and Tribal Governments.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 343.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 260.
    Abstract: This OMB package requests clearance for data collection 
activities for a rigorous evaluation of data-driven instruction (DDI) 
in 104 schools from 12 school districts. Data-driven instruction 
involves the use of student assessment data to help teachers adapt 
their instruction and, ultimately, improve student achievement. The 
study's intervention plan will build school capacity for DDI by: (1) 
Helping schools set up structures and processes that enable teachers 
and other school staff to efficiently carry out data-driven 
instruction, and (2) training and coaching teachers in the skills 
needed to understand student data and implement improved instructional 
strategies to address student needs. We plan to collect student records 
and teacher-assignment data from participating districts and schools, 
and conduct a teacher survey, teacher logs, and a principal survey. The 
evaluation's main objectives are to understand how DDI is implemented 
and to rigorously estimate the impact of a comprehensive DDI program on 
student achievement and teacher and principal practices.
