Written SUMMARY
A Science Fair project consists of selecting a question to answer, conducting a controlled experiment and collecting data, keeping a log, analyzing the data,
making a conclusion statement and doing a backboard to explain your project.
Question: The question chosen should be of high interest to the student. It should be something that the student would like to know more about; but, it must
also be something that is testable; models are not science projects. Choose a problem in which quantifiable (recordable) data can be collected, in a small
window of time, to determine results.
Controlled Experiment: The experiment should be one in which the student will have a control group and one variable that is being tested. At least 10
repetitions should be done in order to have valid results. If living organisms are chosen, at least 20 repetitions are necessary. The students are encouraged to
find a mentor from a higher education institute or research establishment in the chosen field to give advice and guidance.
Data Logbook: This is a dated record of the work done on each stage of the project and observations during the various stages. Data Logs should be in spiral
notebooks, composition books, or research journals.
Analyze Data: Students will need to make graphs from the data and draw thoughtful conclusions. This information is presented in the formal report.
Conclusion: Students will need to make a statement that either supports or rejects the hypothesis of the project. This information is presented in the formal
report.
Backboard: Normally, the backboard is a freestanding 3 paneled cardboard frame. All of the major steps should be typed and placed on the backboard. The
steps usually flow from left to right across the backboard, but use your imagination and some planning to make it yours!
