Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

Hello! I am currently working on my science fair project and I would like a catchy title. My project is, "Do Males and Females Play the Same Games?" Well, the title doesn't have to be catchy, but I would like to have a nice title. Our science project is being graded by professional judges and the whole school walks around to look at 6th and 8th graders posters. (We are the only ones who do it) Please help because I am so lost.

Hello,

Often titles tell the main finding. Think of newspaper articles. I would look there first. From what you have; "Do Males and Females Play the Same Games?" is a good start. I would say that you may want to be more specific than Games. What kind of games, sports, board games, computer games or something else. For catchy titles, you could do something like "Male vs. Female" and then add something about the games such as "do the play the same games?"

If you have your project done, you are well on your way and just need to work on the presentation. Don't stress about the title so much that it distracts from the whole presentation. The overall layout and look of the presentation are important too. Also, work on a short talk (1-3 min) for when people come to see your work.

Good Luck and let me know if you have more questions.

Best,
Lynn
