Appendix 10: Implementation Form for Student School-Year Activities
Summer of Innovation Student School-Year Implementation Form
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is conducting a national evaluation of its Summer of Innovation (SoI) Program. Abt Associates Inc. and its partner the Education Development Center have been hired to conduct this study. The goal is to explore how SoI is being implemented and assess the outcomes related to the implementation of SoI across the country.
This form is intended to document the implementation of the SoI student school-year activities across the awardee sites. All SoI awarded PIs are required to designate an individual(s) to complete this form at the end of any SoI student activities/sessions that occur between the months of September and March. This form is to be submitted to the national evaluation team within two weeks of the last day of EACH school-year activity/session.
You have been asked to complete this form based on your role in the SoI student school-year activities/sessions. Completing this form will help NASA understand awardees’ efforts with students during the school year. We estimate that it will take approximately 10 minutes to complete this form.
Privacy and Participation
Your participation in the study is voluntary and nonparticipation will have no impact on you or your SoI awardee organization. Your responses to this survey will be protected under the Privacy Act. There is minimal risk of breach of confidentiality, and we have put in place procedures to minimize this risk. You will never be identified by name, and information from the evaluation will only be reported in the aggregate.
If you have questions about this evaluation, please contact the evaluation director, Hilary Rhodes of Abt Associates Inc. at (877) 520-6840 (toll-free) or send an email to NASASummerofInnovation@abtassoc.com. You may also contact the evaluation’s program officer at NASA Brian Yoder (Brian.Yoder@nasa.gov).
