Abstract:
NOAA Office of Education has redesigned its Student Tracker database and the associated input form covered under OMB Control No. 0648-0568. This form is intended to capture information on all student participants supported by the Educational Partnership Program with Minority Serving Institutions (EPP/MSI) Undergraduate Scholarship Program (USP) and Cooperative Science Centers (CSCs) and Ernest F. Hollings Undergraduate Scholarship Program. The redesign is intended to facilitate administration of the four NOAA Cooperative Science Centers, awarded in 2016, which will require more robust data collection on program accomplishments and student activities such as research and training experiences at NOAA, conference presentations and publications. The new database design will also facilitate tracking of education and workforce outcomes by NOAA-supported students in order to evaluate long term program impacts.
