Generate Customized Study Flashcards with Artificial Intelligence

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

Have you ever needed to make a lot of flashcards for a class, but didn’t have the time–or weren’t sure how to make ones that actually help you learn? Maybe you like studying on the go, or you’re trying to squeeze in a quick 10-minute review session between other things. In this project, you will learn how to use ChatGPT (or another AI tool of your choice like Gemini, Copilot, etc.) to generate effective study flashcards quickly and customize them to fit your class and… Read more

Generate Recipes from YouTube Videos with AI

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

This project explores how large language models (LLMs) can generate recipes from YouTube cooking videos. In this science project, you will learn how LLMs interpret language and how prompt design can affect results. Read more

Happy or Sad? Use Artificial Intelligence to Classify Faces

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

Do you think artificial intelligence (AI) is too complex to use? Think again! In this project, you will use AI to teach a web-based tool to classify happy and sad faces, or other objects, poses, or sounds. This experiment requires no coding skills; instead, you will need curiosity, creativity, and a critical eye. Why not give it a try yourself? Read more

Identify Road Signs with Machine Learning

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

Driverless cars use machine learning, a type of artificial intelligence, to identify road signs and other things they encounter on the road, like pedestrians and other vehicles. In this project you will take your own pictures of different types of road signs and use machine learning to identify the signs using a free online tool (no programming is required). You will then attempt to improve your machine learning model so it can identify signs in a variety of environments. Read more

Make Your Own Dance Game with AI

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

Dance, especially K-pop dance, has become a significant part of pop culture. Even without dance classes, many people have been learning dance through copying choreography from dance videos and dance tutorials. K-pop routines are fun and expressive, but they can also be tricky. Moves are fast, precise, and often depend on small details, such as hand placement, angles, and timing. How do you know if you’re really matching the choreography? One way developers have gamified the dance learning… Read more

Predicting Thyroid Cancer Recurrence with Machine Learning

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

For cancer patients, remission–a period when the signs and symptoms of cancer are reduced or disappear–brings immense relief, but there is often a chance of recurrence, or the cancer coming back. Have you ever wondered how doctors can predict if cancer might come back in some patients? Thyroid cancer, a type of cancer affecting the thyroid gland, has a recurrence rate of about 5-30%. Depending on many factors, some patients may have a higher chance of thyroid cancer recurrence than… Read more

Predicting Wildfire Intensities and Locations with AI

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Have you ever wondered what causes wildfires and how resources are allocated to prevent their spread? In this science project, you will use machine learning to predict areas of wildfire susceptibility and their intensities. Read more

Racial and Gender Bias in AI-Generated Images

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

If someone asks you to draw a picture of a doctor, lawyer, or engineer, what first pops into your mind? The race and gender of the person you imagine might be shaped by your personal life experiences, such as whether you have family members in those professions, or what representations of them you have seen on TV or online. What do you think will happen if you ask an artificial intelligence (AI) program to generate the picture instead? Will pictures generated by AI reflect the true real-world… Read more

How do driverless cars know how to recognize different road signs? They use something called machine learning. In this activity you will teach a computer to recognize different road signs using photos that you take yourself and a tool called Teachable Machine by Google®. The better the training data, the more accurately the program will be able to recognize different types of signs. Read more
