Go Fish! Creating an Ocean-Friendly Fishing Video Game

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

Video games are entertainment, but like other such media (say Oscar-winning movies or award-winning books), they can also point out challenges facing people. In this science project, you will design and create a fishing video game that teaches the player about which fish are plentiful enough to catch and which fish are not because their population is declining. Maybe your game can help solve the problem of over-fishing and help sustain healthy fish populations. All while having fun of course! Read more

Go, Gadget, Go! Building Robots with LEGO® Mindstorms®

Science Fair Project Idea

Golden Rules of Photography: Family Science Spotlight

Blog Post

Try this hands-on science experiment to learn about the golden rules of photography and improve your photo compositions. When you take a photo, do you put the subject right in the center? What happens to the same photo if you move the subject to the right of the frame, or to the left? These are questions a photographer asks herself every time she gets ready to snap a photo. Where should the subject "go" in the frame? In making this decision, a… Read more

Golf Clubs, Loft Angle, and Distance: The Science of Hitting
