Team Projects
- Team
Projects compete in a separate "team" category against all
other Team Projects. An ISEF Affiliated Fair has the option of
sending a team project, in addition to two individual projects, to
the Intel ISEF. ISEF-affiliated fairs are not required to have Team
Projects, but are encouraged to do so.
- Teams
may have up to three members. NOTE:
Teams may not have more than three members at a local or regional
fair and then eliminate members to qualify for the State Science &
Technology Fair of Iowa or the Intel ISEF.
- Team
membership cannot be changed during a given research year including
converting from an individual project or vice versa, but may be
altered in subsequent years. i.e. If a project starts as a team
the project cannot convert to an individual project during the
research year, but if one of the researchers graduates or leaves the
team an individual may continue the project the following year as an
individual project.
- Each
team should appoint a team leader to coordinate the work and act as
spokesperson. However, each member of the team should be able to
serve as spokesperson, be fully involved with the project, and be
familiar with all aspects of the project. The final work should
reflect the coordinated efforts of all team members and will be
evaluated using the same rules and judging criteria as individual
projects.
- Each
team member must submit an Approval
Form (1B).
- However,
team members must jointly submit
the Checklist
for Adult Sponsor
(1), one abstract, a Student
Checklist (1A)
and other required forms.
- Full
names of all team members must appear on the abstract and forms.
