Choosing a Specific Project

Often, the hardest part about doing a science fair project is selecting a topic to study. It's best to choose a topic that interests you. Coming up with an original idea is nice, but sometimes we need a little inspiration.

  1. Do a Google image search for winning science fair projects. Try to draw some quick generalizations... ... Are there any similarities among various winners (not in their subjects, but in their presentation or style)?
  2. There are many resources online with science fair project ideas. Let's use the one featured at education.com. Browse through the list, read them, and write down at least three topics that you might find interesting. Make sure your choices are not the same as anyone else sitting near you in class (we want unique projects!).
