Electronic Game Project
Are there any other simple electronic game projects available other than the "Steady Hand" project? It should be suitable for a Gr8 student who is allowed a little help but should do most of the assembly himself. Kits are not allowed. Please help!

Re: Electronic Game Project
Electronic games and games in general are great demonstration projects but they are hard to convert into a good Science Fair Projects. See https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... ndex.shtml Getting Started / The Scientific Method and the following items for how a good Science Fair Project progresses.
https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... E&from=TSW is a thought provoking challenge; however, it again is a demonstration unless you can figure out how to come up with a hypothesis. You could turn it into an implementation proof on the minimum number of switch contacts are needed but that turns it into a math proof.

Re: Electronic Game Project
Hi Laura - I wondered what project your student ended up doing and how it turned out? I know Craig posted a link to a suggested alternative project on the Science Buddies site. Let us know what you selected and how it went!
