Which Animals Have Genome Projects?
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
All animals have a genome, but do they all have genome projects? Find out which animals are currently having their genomes sequenced and how much we know already. Whose genomes are already finished? Whose genomes are just getting started? Find out by doing some simple bioinformatics data digging! Read more
Go Wild! Try a Wildcard
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Everybody's favorite card in UNO® is the wildcard—why? Because it can stand for any card you want! Your computer uses the same idea. A wildcard on your computer can stand for anything you want when you search. Do this science project to find out if using wildcards to conduct a search can help you find more of what you're looking for. Read more
Frequency of Outcomes in a Small Number of Trials
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
People often draw conclusions from a small number of observations, and use those conclusions to evaluate the likelihood that an event will take place. But how easy is it to draw the wrong conclusion based on those observations? Will your predictions be accurate if an experiment is only performed a few times? The objective of this project is to determine what happens when a test with two equally-likely outcomes is performed only a small number of times. You can test this by flipping a coin. A… Read more
Printing Power! Save the Environment, One Printer Page at a Time
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Do your parents ever get upset with you for "wasting" paper and ink from your printer? Maybe you wanted to print a comic you found online, or a whole bunch of pictures of you and your friends being goofy, or all the instructions on how to put together that really awesome LEGO® castle. But 20 pages of text and pictures later, your mom or dad is yelling at you. Why do they even care how much you print? And why do people say it is a "waste" of paper? Try this printer-saving science project to… Read more
Measuring Up
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Measurements are very important for scientists. It is especially important that the measurements be accurate. Think about how important accuracy is when you want to know if you are taller than a friend of yours, every inch counts! In this experiment, you will investigate how different objects can be measured with accuracy. Are small or large objects more difficult to measure? Who in your family is the best at measuring? Maybe it will be you! Read more
Estimation and Population Size
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Have you ever wanted to take a short cut? How about when doing your math homework? In this experiment you can learn how estimation can save you time doing math calculations. But beware, some estimations are better than others! Can you match this sample size with the best population? How accurate are your estimation skills? Read more
Pedalism and Movement
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Humans are bipedal, which means we walk using two legs. This gave humans an adaptive advantage during the evolution of humankind. Being bipedal gave humans additional speed, balance and flexibility used for walking, hunting or traveling long distances. However, we may have lost the ability to climb or swing in trees like other primates. How much faster can you go when you are bipedal? Have a race with your friends using two legs, and then four legs (use your arms as your 3rd and 4th legs).… Read more
CD Burning: Take it to the Edge
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Did you know that you can tell how much information is on a CD-R without even using a computer? Find out how in this "reflective" experiment. Read more
