Projects which require approval from DCPS and additional forms prior to beginning the experiment:
- Use of Humans (depending on the project, students need approval of an MD, Nurse Practitioner or Registered Nurse, or a person with an MS in Sociology or Psychology)
- Use of Vertebrate Animals (need approval of a Veterinarian or Vet Assistant)
- Potentially Hazardous Biological Agents (must be done with a qualified scientist with limitations as to the type of agent allowed and the location of the experiments)
- Hazardous Chemicals, Activities, and Devices (depending on the project, students must work with a qualified scientist [chemicals above 1 M concentration or with specific risks based on the Safety Data Sheet information] or supervised by an adult [use of power tools or certain chemicals])
- Students can use the ISEF Wizard to determine whether their projects fall into one of these categories, or can contact the Secondary Science team at 2820_secondarysciencefair@duvalschoolsorg.onmicrosoft.com.
Projects conducted at a research institution require form 1C, and projects continuing from a previous year require form 7.
