The National Science Foundation must require certain precollege science and engineering curriculum awardees to let parents and guardians inspect instructional materials in the school district using them. The Director must also try to add this requirement to older awards whenever possible.
For awards made after August 9, 1975, for developing precollege science or engineering curricula, the Director* must require the awardee and any subcontractor involved in distributing, marketing, or selling the curricula to include a provision in every testing agreement, sales contract, or similar legal instrument. The provision must make all instructional materials developed or provided under the award, subcontract, or instrument—including teachers’ manuals, films, tapes, and other supplementary materials—available in the school district using them for inspection by parents or guardians of children in its educational programs or projects. The Director must also take necessary and feasible action to modify awards made on or before August 9, 1975, for developing and implementing such curricula so the provision is included whenever possible.
After August 9, 1975, the Director* of the National Science Foundation, shall require, as a condition of any award made by the National Science Foundation for the purpose of precollege science or engineering curriculum development activities, that the awardee, and any subcontractors involved in the distribution, marketing, or selling of such science or engineering curricula, shall include in any testing agreement, sales contract, or other comparable legal instrument a provision requiring that all instructional materials, including teacher’s manuals, films, tapes, or other supplementary instructional materials developed or provided under such award, subcontract, or other legal instrument, will be made available within the school district using such materials for inspection by parents or guardians of children engaged in educational programs or projects of that school district. In addition, the Director of the National Science Foundation shall take such action as may be necessary and feasible to modify awards made for the purpose of precollege science or engineering curriculum development and implementation activities on or before August 9, 1975, to include such a provision in all possible cases.
