Formulate specific aim statements, develop a detailed data collection plan, and establish project timelines. • Do (Test) the change. Carry out the data analysis plan, document any unexpected problems or challenges, track progress against timeline benchmarks. • Study (Review) the tests. Analyze collected data, compare results to project aims, summarize and present data. • Take Action based on what has been learned. If the change did not work, go through the cycle again with a different change. If the change was successful, use what has been learned to begin planning new improvements.

48. Return of Race to the Top: Early Learning Challenge

49. For children ages zero to three, the President's proposal includes a new Early Head Start-Child Care partnership at the Department of Health and Human Services to improve quality, and it expands the Administration's home visiting initiative. Home visiting is showing great results. As anyone who's ever had to care for a new baby knows, you need all the help and advice you can get. And that is often especially the case for struggling single parents, first-time parents, and teen parents.
