How to Do High School Science Fair Projects

 
The following ten steps describe how to do a science project for school or for a science fair.
 1. Science Fair Project Judging
    Science fair projects are judged on seven criteria which will guide you as
    you develop your project. These criteria are creativity, skills, clarity,
    thoroughness, neatness, integrity and results.
    
 
 2. Science Fair Project Categories
     Fourteen science fair project categories have been designated by the
    Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF). Examples 
    include behavioral and social science, computer science, and earth 
    and space science. 
  
     
 
3. Branches of Science
    There are more than a hundred branches of science from which to find an
    area of science that interests you. Examples include psychology, theory of
    games, nutrition, computer graphics, organic chemistry, atomic physics
    and endangered species.

 
 4. Science Fair Topics
    The listing of science fair topics is intended to suggest a topic for your
    project. Many topics have been included for you to evaluate.
 
 
5. Science Project Ideas 
     The science fair project ideas Guide provides additional help in choosing a
     subject for your project as well as hints and tips on how to conduct your
     project.
     
 
 6. Science Project Types
    Determine which of the five types of science fair projects that you want to
    do: original research, demonstration, investigation, collections or models.

 
7. Science Project Research
    There are two types of science project research: investigative research
    and experimental research. Resources are provided for you to conduct
    both types of research.
 
 
8. Scientific Method
    The scientific method is explained by applying the scientific method to an
    example of a science project.
 
 
9. Science Fair Display
    At a minimum your science project  display board should include the title,
    the hypothesis, a description of the equipment, the experimental 
    procedures, the results, the analysis and the conclusion.    


10. Writing Your Science Fair Project Report
    Writing your science project report is not difficult. Follow our guidelines
    and include each of the sections of the report which we recommend.
How to Do Middle School Science Fair Projects
The middle school science fair project website provides you with the knowledge you will need in order to complete a successful science project. The website contains information about project judging, branches of science, project topics, the scientific method, science research, project display, an example of a science project and what to include in your science project report.

Additional Science Fair Project Information
Science Project Benefits
The benefits that you will gain from doing a science project may surprise you. Twelve science project benefits are listed.


Cool Science Projects
Cool science projects and cool science experiments are characterized by their excellence. Explore these exciting projects and experiments, which stand out because of their sophistication and application of advanced scientific principles. 

Fun Science Projects
Discover that working on fun science projects and fun science experiments is exciting and entertaining. Fascinating science project ideas also are presented.
 

Easy Science Projects
Easy science projects and easy science experiments are provided for those students who have a limited amount of time to work on their science project. Easy-to-construct, simple science projects and simple science experiments also have been included. Simple science projects will be successful when well researched and well presented.


Moldy Bread Experiment
The moldy bread experiment is an ideal science project because it is well suited for expansion into a large project simply by increasing the number and variety of variables.

Science Experiments
Science experiments are procedures, based on the scientific method, that are used to determine the truth of hypotheses. Scientific  terms pertinent to Science experiments are defined.
