Notice of Information Collection
National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA).
ACTION: Notice of information collection.
AGENCY:

The National Aeronautics and
Space Administration, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent burden, invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies to take this opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing information collections, as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13, 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)).
DATES: All comments should be
submitted within 60 calendar days from
the date of this publication.
ADDRESSES: All comments should be
addressed to Frances Teel, Mail Code
JF000, National Aeronautics and Space
Administration, Washington, DC 20546–
0001.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Requests for additional information or
copies of the information collection
instrument(s) and instructions should
be directed to Frances Teel, NASA PRA
Clearance Officer, NASA Headquarters,

[email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:

I. Abstract
NASA’s founding legislation, the
Space Act of 1958, as amended, directs
the Agency to expand human
knowledge of Earth and space
phenomena and to preserve the role of
the United States as a leader in
aeronautics, space science, and
technology. The NASA Office of
Education has three primary goals (1)
strengthen NASA and the Nation’s
future workforce, (2) attract and retain
students in science, technology,
engineering and mathematics, or STEM,
disciplines, and (3) engage Americans in
NASA’s mission.
This notice informs the public of
NASA’s intent to revise a currently
approved information collection for a
project formerly known as the NASA
Summer of Innovation Project. The

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 12 / Tuesday, January 20, 2015 / Notices

request for renewal pertains to the
administration of surveys to youth in
support of the agency’s STEM challenge
activities for middle school youth. The
information collection was revised to
collect the minimum amount of data
required to (1) evaluate the activity for
improvement opportunities, and (2)
collect outcome data to assess the
activity model’s effectiveness in meeting
its intended objectives. Youth surveys
have been retained in this information
collection, but the parent survey and
teacher focus groups have been
eliminated to reduce burden. The
number of youth participating in this
information collection has been reduced
to reflect the estimated number of
participants who will be engaged in this
activity in the future. The cost of the
information collection, to participating
members of the public, has also been
reduced as a result of these and other
changes to the information collection.
