- Description
- The U.S. Department of Education (Department) anticipates the release of the 2021 Small Business Innovation Research Program (SBIR) Phase I solicitation on or about December 1, 2020. The purpose of the SBIR program is to stimulate technological innovation in the private sector, strengthen the role of small business in meeting Department research and development needs, increase the commercial potential of Department-supported research results, and improve the return on investment from Federally-funded research for economic and social benefits to the Nation. Phase I is to determine, insofar as possible, the scientific or technical merit of ideas submitted under the SBIR program. The proposal should concentrate on Research/Research & Development (R/R&D) that will establish the feasibility of the technological approach, a prerequisite for further Department support in Phase II. Awards are for periods up to 8-months in amounts up to $200,000. Firms with strong R/R&D capabilities in education technology products, for use in standard education, in the priority areas listed are encouraged to participate. The 2021 priority areas consist of either: 1.�� �Products that apply emerging technologies to support student learning and relevant education outcomes; or 2.�� �Products to modernize assessment and support student learning and relevant education outcomes; or� 3.�� �Products used by educators or administrators to inform decision making; or 4.�� �Products to prepare�existing evidence-based interventions to be used at scale in education settings; or 5.�� �Products for informal learning to reverse learning loss for the lowest performing students. Products must fall in one of these priority areas (not all). Interested parties should continue to monitor this posting for updates. For more information about the Department�s SBIR program, please see here: �www.ies.ed.gov/sbir Note!! �There will be a second SBIR Phase I competition this year dedicated to products for use in Special Education. �For Special Education Products please see the Notice for 91990021R0002.
