Title of Collection: Impact Evaluation 

of Math Professional Development. 

OMB Control Number: 1850—New. 

Type of Review: New collection, 

request for a new OMB Control Number. 

Respondents/Affected Public: State, 

Local, or Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 1,260.

Burden Hours: 2,211. 

Abstract: This package requests 

clearance to recruit and collect data

development (PD). The study will 

provide important information about the 

implementation and impact of 

intensive, content-focused professional 

development on fourth grade teachers’ 

content knowledge, classroom practice, 

and their students’ achievement. The 

evaluation has an experimental design 

with teacher-level random assignment 

of a volunteer sample of approximately 

200 fourth grade teachers in six districts 

to receive either the study’s PD or the 

district’s ‘‘business-as-usual’’ PD. 

Findings will be presented in a final 

report scheduled for release in February 

2016.

application from the Local Education 

Agency and or Tribe. The funds under 

this program assist applicants to provide 

Indian students with the opportunity to 

meet the same challenging state 

standards as all other students and meet 

the unique educational and culturally 

related academic needs of American 

Indian and Alaska Native students. The 

amount of the award for each applicant 

is determined by a formula based on the 

reported number of American Indian/ 

Alaska Native students identified in the 

application, the state per pupil 

expenditure, and the total appropriation 

available. The information collection is 

also necessary to meet the Government 

Performance and Results Act (GPRA) 

requirements. The collection is 

authorized by section 7114(a) of the 

ESEA, 20 U.S.C. 7424(a), and by section

Results Act of 1993 (GPRA).
