processed and used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden 
accurate; (4) how might the Department enhance the quality, utility, 
and clarity of the information to be collected; and (5) how might the

including through the use of information technology. Please note that

    Abstract: The data collection described in this submission includes 
state-, district-, and school-level surveys for the National Evaluation 
of Title III Implementation. This study is designed to provide 
information to policymakers, administrators, and educators about state 
and local practices for serving English learners (ELs), both through 
implementation of Title III, Part A of the Elementary and Secondary 
Education Act (ESEA) and more generally. The surveys will collect 
information on criteria for identifying and reclassifying ELs, 
instructional models and strategies for ELs, strategies for promoting 
EL teacher quality, and supports for EL parents and families.
