What are High School Science Fair Projects?
High school science fair projects are a presentation of an experiment that are put in competition with other student experiments. Using the scientific method, a student will create a hypothesis, test the hypothesis, and record the results. High school science fair projects are limited only by a student’s interests and the available resources. Teachers, friends and family can provide advice and guidance in putting together a project; the project must be the student’s own work, though. Experiments represent the foundations of high school science fair projects, but presentation is also a key component. Creating an attractive and informative display is crucial to putting together a winning project. Depending on the fair, competitors may also have to speak to the judges about their project and will be judged on their composure and knowledge of the subject. Students usually get their start in science fairs in elementary school. They begin as class assignments and eventually become voluntary
