A Matter of Time

[deleted-303526]

Hello, I needed to find a project to complete in 2-5 days, and I chose "A Matter of Time." Only, I don't clearly understand the process of the this project. Are there certain steps I should follow? Tips are appreciated.

Hello. The purpose of this project is to track different ways to measure time in a location (your home town, perhaps) and see if these times change from Universal Standard Time throughout the year. If there are differences, can you find through your research why this happens?

There are procedural instructions at the bottom of the summary tab of the experiment? Have you read through those? If so, can you provide specific questions as to what you don't understand?

Good luck!

Hi mjc2002,

Please note that this is an "abbreviated project idea." That means it does not have a complete step-by-step procedure for you to follow, you need to come up with the procedure on your own, based on the information presented. This means it will be a little more work than other projects on our site that provide a complete procedure. There's a little text box on the page that explains that:

"*Note: This is an abbreviated Project Idea, without notes to start your background research, a specific list of materials, or a procedure for how to do the experiment. You can identify abbreviated Project Ideas by the asterisk at the end of the title. If you want a Project Idea with full instructions, please pick one without an asterisk."

Like Deana said, if you do have specific questions about the Matter of Time project, the experts in the forum may be able to help.
