Online Resource Assists in the Creation of Science Fair Projects

  • 04/01/04

The Super Science Fair Projects Web site (www.super-science-fair-projects.com) offers resources to take middle- and high-school students step-by-step through the extensive process of completing a science fair project. The site assists students in choosing a topic and provides ideas about different experiments. It also helps students map out a project timeline, keep a science log, research a project, complete the six steps of the scientific method, and make a display board for their project. In addition, the site includes hints from the judges on how to win science fair contests.

For teachers, the site provides sample science fair projects, including experiments, topics and ideas; a teacher’s resource center; and a newsletter for the classroom. There’s also a section of the site that helps parents guide their children in the process of creating a project without having to complete it for them.

  • Cypress Woods High School – Project HUNCH Stratasys

    Project HUNCH (High Schools United with NASA to Create Hardware) gives students the opportunity to design and build products for potential use in space missions. As part of this project, NASA asked the students of Cypress Woods High School to design and build a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) that carries a camera and can maneuver around the zero-gravity environment of the International Space Station (ISS) under the direction of ground control. Learn how the students used 3D printing to quickly and inexpensively build functional prototypes to test and improve the functionality of their design. Read more...
