Description

The policy and program studies service (ppss) in the office of planning, evaluation and policy development has the responsibility to provide U.S. Department of education (ED) officials with evaluations of federal elementary and secondary education programs in support of no child left behind (nclb). Most recently, ppss has been tasked by the secretary to coordinate an nclb promising practices initiative (PPI) that will feature practices that appear to be promising based on the best evidence available. In order to support the work of the PPI, this task order contract provides for evaluations of the evidence supporting various educational practices in priority areas determined by the secretary. In order to designate a practice as promising, the body of studies on the practice must meet quality standards established by ED and the findings across studies must indicate that the practice results in a desired outcome. The purpose of this task order is to 1) conduct evaluations of the evidence supporting 256 educational practices and 2) to create practice descriptions, implementation tools and case studies for those practices found to be promising. If this contract is extended for the 2 option years, the contractor will perform the tasks of this contract for 192 additional practices. Practices that are found to be promising will be made available on the internet to 1) inform the work of federal education program grantees and 2) guide decision-making in the education community at large.
