OMB approves
this information collection request, as amended by ED's 1/29/91
memorandum to OMB. As ED has agreed, in the context of H
reauthorization, approval is granted through 12/91. In addition, ED
should meet the following conditions: o Consistent with ED's
response to OMB's initial concern on Part I.B of the form, ED
should divide each ethnic category into two rows, one for males and
one for females, to increase the utility of these data. However, if
respondents find this to increase burden, they should be given the
option to aggregate gender distinctions for the other three
categories, as currently requested. o In Part I.C. of the form, ED
should add an "other" column after column F, to record the number
of tutees with characteristics other th those specified by columns
D-F. o Also in Part I.C., ED should incorporate its suggestion to
add another page to the report to solicit tutee profile information
on the five categories, as well as reading level before and after
services. o In Part II.A., Q. 1, ED should delete the words "pre
and post" fro the question to allow respondents to report on any
tests administered to tutees. o In Part II.B., Q. 3, ED should
request copies of any reports that grantees provide which are based
on the surveys completed by tutors. This is consistent with annual
evaluation requirements in EDGAR.
