Make a Mood Tracker
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
How do you feel right now? Do you remember how you felt a few hours ago? How about yesterday or last Wednesday? What if you could track your emotions throughout the day and use this information to help improve your mood and well-being? In this science project, you will program a simple, pocket-sized device that you can carry around with you to log your feelings whenever you want or on a specific schedule.  Read more
Make a Motion Sensor Alarm with a Raspberry Pi
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Have you ever wished you could create an alarm system to guard your stuff? Or what about throwing a surprise party for someone and automatically playing music and flashing lights when they walk in the door? You can do either of these things using a Raspberry Pi. The kit includes a motion sensor, which can detect when people move in front of it. Check out the video to see what this simple, but fun, project looks like. IMPORTANT: The instructions for this project were originally written using… Read more
Make an Adaptive Switch
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
How could you send a text message without using your thumbs? What about typing on a keyboard or using a video game controller without using your fingers? Due to a variety of medical conditions like cerebral palsy or paralysis from an accident, some people might be unable to easily use their hands and fingers to push small buttons or use joysticks. However, they might be able to use their entire hand to push a single larger button or use another part of their body like their foot or even their… Read more
'Make Mine Medium-Rare': Heat Conduction in Steak
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
How do you like your steak? The internal temperatures for beefsteaks at various levels of "doneness" are as follows: medium-rare, 145°F; medium, 155°F; medium-well, 165°F; and well-done, 170°F. What factors determine how long you have to cook a steak to reach the desired temperature? The temperature of the steak before you start to cook it will clearly be important. The temperature the steak is cooked at will also be a factor. And of course, the thickness of the steak will… Read more
Make Monkeys Fly in the Blink of an Eye
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Ok, well you will not be making real monkeys fly, so what is this science project all about? You might think that flying, screaming monkeys and science project do not belong in the same sentence, but you will be working with toy monkeys, and toys can sometimes be great tools for exploring science. In this science project, you will launch flying, screaming toy monkeys and determine how far they fly with the stretch of a rubber band. The distance they will go can be graphed to see how distance… Read more
