Research Paper Help!!!!!

Post by deleted-34225 »

I have a student with an environmental engineering project. How can he relate the engineering goals to the scientific method in order to write his research paper using the format from the ISEF student handbook?

I am clearly not an expert on the requirements imposed by ISEF, but I recall seeing there are separate requirements for engineering projects, which are different than for science projects.

I went to the ISEF web site and found these judging criteria in this link: http://www.societyforscience.org/page.aspx?pid=284

If you read through them, I think you will be able to see how the judges look at engineering projects differently than science projects. I think this will help you.
