What are the different teams or components involved?
Under the guidance of a teacher/coaches, teams of four students in grades 4- 12 use the FPSP six-step model to explore challenges and propose action plans to complex societal problems, such as fads, financial security, amateur sports, the Internet and genetic engineering Teams are divided into three divisions: Grades 4 – 6 (Junior) Grades 7 – 9 (Middle) Grades 10 – 12 (Senior) Teams complete two practice problems and one qualifying problem throughout the school year. Trained evaluators score student work and return it with feedback including suggestions for improvement. The top scoring teams on the qualifying problem are invited to Affiliate FPS Bowls held each spring. The winners of each respective Affiliate FPS Bowl advance to the FPSP International Conference in June. Individual Problem Solving Individual competition is offered in affiliate programs choosing to administer an individual program. A student works individually rather than as a member of a team.
