It explicitly states it starts with premises they are assuming to be true. You have a nice list but there's one thing you forgot to mention, and intriguingly it's the key new innovation in this project: dystopian police state panoramic cameras installed in 100% of classrooms and a central website run by ETS to upload monitoring videos for evaluation by technocrats. There is no evidence that this is going to help teaching. The assumption is that it will, and the project is funding tests to demonstrate that it is effective, which will be the finding of the "study", because the desired outcome is always the finding of these studies; they are as unbiased and without a desired outcome as pharmaceutical studies to show the safety of a new erection pill.
