that the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) provide interested 

Federal agencies and the public an early 

opportunity to comment on information

Federal law, or substantially interfere 

with any agency’s ability to perform its 

statutory obligations. The IC Clearance 

Official, Regulatory Information 

Management Services, Office of 

Management, publishes that notice 

containing proposed information 

collection requests prior to submission 

of these requests to OMB. Each 

proposed information collection, 

grouped by office, contains the 

following: (1) Type of review requested,

Title: The Effects of Odyssey Math 

Software on the Mathematics 

Achievement of Selected Fourth Grade 

Students. 

Frequency: Annually. 

Affected Public: State, Local, or Tribal 

Gov’t, SEAs or LEAs; Individuals or 

household; Businesses or other forprofit. 

Reporting and Recordkeeping Hour 

Burden: 

Responses: 3,286. 

Burden Hours: 6,598. 

Abstract: Support for the idea of 

developing stronger mathematics 

curricula comes from all stakeholders in 

education today. Despite the importance 

of mathematics education there have 

been a limited number of interventions 

that meet the need. Odyssey(r) Math 

may be an exception and is designed to 

offer opportunities to engage in more 

challenging mathematics in 

(presumably) interesting contexts. 

Despite the promise the intervention 

holds, existing studies on Odyssey(r) 

Math have not adequately controlled for 

threats to the internal validity. The 

Regional Education Lab Mid-Atlantic 

plans to remedy that and has designed 

a multi-site CRT to evaluate the 

effectiveness of Odyssey(r) Math in 

improving math scores. This document 

presents the Supporting Statement for a 

multi-site cluster randomized control 

trial (or multi-site CRT) designed to test 

the impacts of Odyssey Math Software 

in 4th grade classrooms in the MidAtlantic region of the United States (PA, 

MD, NJ, DE, DC).
