Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a teacher, failed to establish that her proposed endeavor was of national importance. While her work was found to have substantial merit, she did not provide sufficient evidence that her specific teaching methods had a broader impact on the field of language instruction beyond her immediate students and local school, or that they influenced the field regionally or nationally.
