Latest version.

(a) In determining whether an educational program should be recommended as exemplary or promising, the panel shall consider—

(1) Whether, based on empirical data, the program is effective and should be designated as exemplary; or

(2) Whether there is sufficient evidence to demonstrate that the program shows promise for improving student achievement and should be designated as promising.

(b) The Secretary relies upon the judgment and expertise of peer reviewers, as established in § 701.11, to determine the nature and extent of evidence required to distinguish between promising and exemplary programs and to apply the four criteria established in § 701.22, and their own individual factors under each criterion in making this determination.
