Forms
We recommend using a screening process to ensure that this course is a good fit for prospective students. Students must be invested in conducting extended research on a topic of their own interest. School counselors, librarians, and teachers can "spot" candidates for this course-- any student who is passionate about an issue, problem, career aspiration, or topic in any discipline, and able to work semi-independently should be eligible.
The forms below are examples of those that have been used at some schools to market the course and screen students for course enrollment. These forms are not required and may be revised/customized to meet your needs. Editing is restricted on fill-in forms; to revise these, disable document protection using the password: bcpsirc.
