Science fair projects. Ultimate guide
Description
This video provides a step-by-step guide to science projects. Interviews with participants at science fairs and footage of their projects provide most of the information. Participants describe where they got their ideas, how they conducted their experiments, what problems they encountered, and what they discovered in the process. Viewers learn what the scientific method is, why it is used in projects, and how it encourages "hands-on science. Interviews with science fair judges and organizers provide insights into the judging process. Terms such as hypothesis, control, and variable are defined. Helpful tips on recording and organizing data, safety, writing a report, constructing a display, and preparing an oral presentation round out the information. Correlates to the National Science Education Standards developed by the National Academies of Science and Project 2061 Benchmarks for Science Literacy from the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
