This report presents findings and considerations from the second year of the UEPC's evaluation of the Institute for Data-Driven Dynamical Design (ID4), funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Harnessing the Data Revolution (HDR) program. Led by a team at Colorado School of Mines, ID4 is a virtual institute uniting scholars and students from 12 sites across the country to integrate human and machine intelligence, revolutionize the design cycle, and foster an inclusive scientific community.

The Idaho Out-of-School Network (ION), Idaho Commission for Libraries, and Idaho STEM Action Center formed a unique partnership to support out-of-school time (OST) programs aimed at addressing lost school time and unfinished learning for youth in Idaho. With funding from the ESSER III (Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund) grant under the American Rescue Plan, administered by the Idaho State Board of Education, the three agencies coordinated to create and deliver grant programs for various types of OST initiatives. The work was commissioned to assess the value and impact of these programs.
