    Title of Collection: Evaluation of Strategies to Address Unfinished 
Learning in Math (ReSolve Math Study).
    OMB Control Number: 1850-NEW.
    Type of Review: New ICR.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 12,640.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 2,559.
    Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic led to substantial unfinished 
learning in math and an important debate about how best to address it. 
Traditionally, policymakers and educators have advocated a ``broad 
foundation skill building'' approach, but an alternative ``just-in-time 
skill building'' approached has received more attention recently, 
including in the U.S. Department of Education's COVID-19 Handbook. But 
there is limited evidence comparing these approaches. This evaluation 
will examine the effectiveness of adaptive technology products that 
deliver these two catch-up strategies in elementary schools, where 
teachers often struggle with how to teach math well and the benefits of 
using technology supports are understudied. The findings will provide 
valuable evidence, especially for low-performing schools identified 
under the Every Student Succeeds Act and their most underserved 
students. This package requests approval for data collection activities 
to conduct the evaluation.
