Full Text of Announcement
I. Funding Opportunity Description
Purpose of Program: Under this program we support Federal grants to
design and implement character education programs that can be
integrated into classroom instruction, that are consistent with State
academic content standards. Such programs may be carried out in
conjunction with other educational reform efforts, and must take into
consideration the views of parents, students, students with
disabilities (including those with mental or physical disabilities),
and other members of the community, including members of private,
nonprofit organizations or entities, including faith-based
organizations and community organizations.
Priorities: In accordance with 34 CFR 75.105(b)(2)(iv), this
priority is from Title V, Part D, Subpart 3, Section 5431 of the
Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as amended by the No
Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (ESEA) (20 U.S.C. 7247).
Absolute Priority: For FY 2008 and any subsequent years in which we
make awards from the list of unfunded applicants from this competition,
this priority is an absolute priority. Under 34 CFR 75.105(c)(3), we
consider only applications that meet this priority.
This priority is:
The design and implementation of character education programs that
are able to be--
(A) Integrated into classroom instruction and consistent with State
academic content standards; and
(B) carried out in conjunction with other educational reform
efforts.
Competitive Preference Priority: Within this absolute priority, we
give competitive preference to applications that address the following
priority. This priority is from the notice of final priorities for
discretionary grant programs, published in the Federal Register on
January 25, 2005 (70 FR 3585).
Under 34 CFR 75.105(c)(2)(i), we award up to an additional 20
points to an application, depending on how well the application meets
this priority. When using the priority to give competitive preference
to an application, the Secretary will review applications using a two-
stage process. In the first stage, the application will be reviewed
without taking the priority into account. In the second stage of
review, the applications rated highest in stage one will be reviewed
for competitive preference.
This priority is:
The Secretary establishes a priority for projects proposing an
evaluation plan that is based on rigorous scientifically based research
methods used to assess the effectiveness of a particular intervention.
The Secretary intends that this priority will allow program
participants and the Department to determine whether the project
produces meaningful effects on student achievement or teacher
performance.
Evaluation methods using an experimental design are best for
determining project effectiveness. Thus, when feasible, the project
must use an experimental design under which participants--e.g.,
students, teachers, classrooms, or schools--are randomly assigned to
participate in the project activities being evaluated or to a control
group that does not participate in the project activities being
evaluated.
If random assignment is not feasible, the project may use a quasi-
experimental design with carefully matched comparison conditions. This
alternative design attempts to approximate a randomly assigned control
group by matching participants--e.g., students, teachers,
[[Page 9555]]
classrooms, orchools--with non-participants having similar pre-program
characteristics.
In cases where random assignment is not possible and participation
in the intervention is determined by a specified cutting point on a
quantified continuum of scores, regression discontinuity designs may be
employed.
For projects that are focused on special populations in which
sufficient numbers of participants are not available to support random
assignment or matched comparison group designs, single-subject designs
such as multiple baseline or treatment-reversal or interrupted time
series that are capable of demonstrating causal relationships can be
employed.
Proposed evaluation strategies that use neither experimental
designs with random assignment nor quasi-experimental designs using a
matched comparison group nor regression discontinuity designs will not
be considered responsive to the priority when sufficient numbers of
participants are available to support these designs. Evaluation
strategies that involve too small a number of participants to support
group designs must be capable of demonstrating the causal effects of an
intervention or program on those participants.
The proposed evaluation plan must describe how the project
evaluator will collect--before the project intervention commences and
after it ends--valid and reliable data that measure the impact of
participation in the program or in the comparison group.
Points awarded under this priority will be determined by the
quality of the proposed evaluation method. In determining the quality
of the evaluation method, we will consider the extent to which the
applicant presents a feasible, credible plan that includes the
following:
(1) The type of design to be used (that is, random assignment or
matched comparison). If matched comparison, include in the plan a
discussion of why random assignment is not feasible.
(2) Outcomes to be measured.
(3) A discussion of how the applicant plans to assign students,
teachers, classrooms, or schools to the project and control group or
match them for comparison with other students, teachers, classrooms, or
schools.
(4) A proposed evaluator, preferably independent, with the
necessary background and technical expertise to carry out the proposed
evaluation. An independent evaluator does not have any authority over
the project and is not involved in its implementation.
In general, depending on the implemented program or project, under
a competitive preference priority, random assignment evaluation methods
will receive more points than matched comparison evaluation methods.
Definitions
As used in this notice--
Scientifically based research (section 9101(37) ESEA):
(A) Means research that involves the application of rigorous,
systematic, and objective procedures to obtain reliable and valid
knowledge relevant to education activities and programs; and
(B) Includes research that--
(i) Employs systematic, empirical methods that draw on observation
or experiment;
(ii) Involves rigorous data analyses that are adequate to test the
stated hypotheses and justify the general conclusions drawn;
(iii) Relies on measurements or observational methods that provide
reliable and valid data across evaluators and observers, across
multiple measurements and observations, and across studies by the same
or different investigators;
(iv) Is evaluated using experimental or quasi-experimental designs
in which individuals entities, programs, or activities are assigned to
different conditions and with appropriate controls to evaluate the
effects of the condition of interest, with a preference for random-
assignment experiments, or other designs to the extent that those
designs contain within-condition or across-condition controls;
(v) Ensures that experimental studies are presented in sufficient
detail and clarity to allow for replication or, at a minimum, offer the
opportunity to build systematically on their findings; and
(vi) Has been accepted by a peer-reviewed journal or approved by a
panel of independent experts through a comparably rigorous, objective,
and scientific review.
Random assignment or experimental design means random assignment of
students, teachers, classrooms, or schools to participate in a project
being evaluated (treatment group) or not participate in the project
(control group). The effect of the project is the difference in
outcomes between the treatment and control groups.
Quasi-experimental designs include several designs that attempt to
approximate a random assignment design.
Carefully matched comparison groups design means a quasi-
experimental design in which project participants are matched with non-
participants based on key characteristics that are thought to be
related to the outcome.
Regression discontinuity design means a quasi-experimental design
that closely approximates an experimental design. In a regression
discontinuity design, participants are assigned to a treatment or
control group based on a numerical rating or score of a variable
unrelated to the treatment such as the rating of an application for
funding. Eligible students, teachers, classrooms, or schools above a
certain score (``cut score'') are assigned to the treatment group and
those below the score are assigned to the control group. In the case of
the scores of applicants' proposals for funding, the ``cut score'' is
established at the point where the program funds available are
exhausted.
Single subject design means a design that relies on the comparison
of treatment effects on a single subject or group of single subjects.
There is little confidence that findings based on this design would be
the same for other members of the population.
Treatment reversal design means a single subject design in which a
pre-treatment or baseline outcome measurement is compared with a post-
treatment measure. Treatment would then be stopped for a period of
time, a second baseline measure of the outcome would be taken, followed
by a second application of the treatment or a different treatment. For
example, this design might be used to evaluate a behavior modification
program for disabled students with behavior disorders.
Multiple baseline design means a single subject design to address
concerns about the effects of normal development, timing of the
treatment, and amount of the treatment with treatment-reversal designs
by using a varying time schedule for introduction of the treatment and/
or treatments of different lengths or intensity.
Interrupted time series design means a quasi-experimental design in
which the outcome of interest is measured multiple times before and
after the treatment for program participants only.
Note: Due to the very short time frame that applicants have to
select a proposed evaluator for the required competitive priority,
we remind applicants that they can, under 34 CFR 80.36, use informal
procedures to select a proposed contractor for this purpose. For
example, Sec. 80.36 authorizes simple informal procedures to select
contractors for contracts under the simplified acquisition threshold
of $100,000. 34 CFR 80.36(d)(1). The regulations only require that
you request offers from an adequate number of sources.
[[Page 9556]]
In addition, even if you expect that the evaluation of your project
would cost more than $100,000, the regulations recognize special cases
where a contractor must be selected within a very limited time period.
Again, you need to request proposals from an adequate number of
qualified sources and select the contractor whose proposal is most
advantageous to the program, considering price and other selection
factors. In these situations, if informal solicitation does not result
in an adequate number of proposals, you may select a single bidder so
long as you document the facts that formed the basis for your decision.
34 CFR 80.36(d)(1), (3) & (4).
Invitational Priority: Within this absolute priority, we are
particularly interested in applications that address the following
invitational priority. Under 34 CFR 75.105(c)(1) we do not give an
application that meets this invitational priority a competitive or
absolute preference over other applications.
This priority is:
Faith-based and Community Organizations.
The Secretary is especially interested in applications that propose
to engage faith-based and community organizations in the planning and
development of character education programs and the delivery of
services under this program.
Program Authority: 20 U.S.C. 7247.
Applicable Regulations: (a) The Education Department General
Administrative Regulations (EDGAR) in 34 CFR parts 74, 75, 77, 79, 80,
81, 82, 84, 85, 86, 97, 98, 99 and 299. (b) The notice of final
priority published in the Federal Register on January 25, 2005 (70 FR
3585).
Note: The regulations in 34 CFR part 79 apply to all applicants
except federally recognized Indian tribes.

V. Application Review Information
1. Selection Criteria: The selection criteria for this competition
are from 34 CFR part 75.210 in EDGAR and are listed in the application
package.
2. Review and Selection Process: Additional factors we consider in
selecting an application for an award are included in 20 U.S.C. 7247.
We will ensure that, to the extent practicable, the projects for which
we provide funding are equally distributed among the geographic regions
of the United States, and among urban, suburban and rural areas.
VI. Award Administration Information
1. Award Notices: If your application is successful, we notify your
U.S. Representative and U.S. Senators and send you a Grant Award Notice
(GAN). We may notify you informally, also.
If your application is not evaluated or not selected for funding,
we notify you.
2. Administrative and National Policy Requirements: We identify
administrative and national policy requirements in the application
package and reference these and other requirements in the Applicable
Regulations section in this notice.
We reference the regulations outlining the terms and conditions of
an award in the Applicable Regulations section in this notice and
include these and other specific conditions in the GAN. The GAN also
incorporates your approved application as part of your binding
commitments under the grant.
3. Reporting: At the end of your project period, you must submit a
final performance report, including financial information, as directed
by the Secretary. If you receive a multi-year award, you must submit an
annual performance report that provides the most current performance
and financial expenditure information as directed by the Secretary
under 34 CFR 75.118. The Secretary may also require more frequent
performance reports under 34 CFR 75.720(c). For specific requirements
on reporting, please go to http://www.ed.gov/fund/grant/apply/appforms/appforms.html
.
4. Performance Measure: Under the Government Performance and
Results Act (GPRA), two performance indicators have been established
for the Partnerships in Character Education Program. The indicators
are: the percentage of Partnerships in Character Education Program
grantees that use an experimental or quasi-experimental design for
their evaluation; and the percentage of Partnerships in Character
Education Program grantees that use an experimental or quasi-
experimental design for their evaluation that are conducted
successfully, and that yield scientifically valid results.
Consequently, applicants for a grant under this program are advised to
give careful consideration to these two measures in conceptualizing the
design, implementation, and evaluation of their proposed project. If
funded, applicants will be asked to report data in their annual
performance reports on evaluation outcomes. The Secretary will use this
information to assess the overall quality of performance data obtained
through rigorous evaluations conducted by grantees, and to respond to
reporting requirements concerning this program established in Section
5431(h) of the ESEA.
