Why Do a Science Fair Project
Question: Why Do a Science Fair Project? You may be doing a science fair project because its an assignment. You may get the opportunity to do a project by choice. Either way, it may motivate you to know how doing a project can benefit you. Answer: Discovering Something AmazingYoull learn something from doing a project, plus its usually a lot of fun. You may find something new doing your own project, plus youll learn from other people. Real research is done for science fairs, sometimes resulting in important inventions and discoveries. Even if your project isnt earth-shattering, youll almost certainly learn something you didnt know before you started.Developing SkillsYoull become better at science, plus youll gain or practice several other skills. You may become more familiar with the library, learn to use a camera or word processing program, master a mathematical analysis, get public speaking practice, etc. Some of these skills may be intimidating to learn. When youre working on a science fair project, its easy to get help, plus no one expects perfection. The benefits of the project go way beyond learning science. Youll become more confident, more mature, more disciplined, and more skilled.Cash PrizesThe science fair project you do for your science class may get you an A and maybe a pretty ribbon, but if you can take that project to a higher level (such as a regional or state competition, in the U.S.), then success could be measured in terms of a cash prize, recognition, scholarship, educational opportunities, and offers of employment. You just need a great project. Even if you dont ââ¬â¹win, the experience is nice to put on your college application.ââ¬â¹
