SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

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

STEM Engagement administers the

agency’s national education activities in

support of the Space Act, including the

performance measurement and

evaluation of educational projects and

programs. This generic clearance will

allow the NASA Office of STEM

Engagement to continue to test and pilot

with subject matter experts, secondary

students, higher education students,

educators, and interested parties new

and existing information collection

forms and assessment instruments for

the purposes of improvement and

establishing validity and reliability

characteristics of the forms and

instruments. Existing information

collections include the NASA Intern

Survey (Retrospective Survey), NASA

Internship Applicants and Awardees

Survey (Retrospective Survey), STEM

Challenges Impact Surveys (Educator

Feedback Retrospective Survey), STEM

Challenges Impact Surveys (Parent

Survey), and STEM Challenges Impact

Surveys (Student Retrospective Survey).

Forms and instruments to be tested

include program application forms,

customer satisfaction questionnaires,

focus group protocols, and project

activity survey instruments.

Methodological testing will include

focus group discussions, pilot surveys to

test new individual question items as

well as the complete form and

instrument. In addition, test-retest and

similar protocols will be used to

determine reliability characteristics of

the forms and instruments.

Methodological testing will assure that

forms and instruments accurately and

consistently collect and measure what

they are intended to measure and that

data collection items are interpreted

precisely and consistently, all towards

the goal of accurate Agency reporting

while improving the execution of NASA

STEM Engagement activities.

II. Methods of Collection

Electronic, paper, and focus group

interviews.
