Motor Imagery Visualization's Impact on Fine Motor Skills for Space Flight

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

In this science experiment, you will model and test how visualization of a task can change the accuracy of your fine motor skill performance. You will use the small muscles in your hands to model how your body would perform on Earth versus a space launch. Read more

The Nose Knows Smell but How About Taste?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Ahchoo! Got that stuffy nose and I-can't-breathe kind of cold? Those sniffles and clogged sinuses are bad enough, but why does it also seem everything tastes so bland and flavorless when we are sick? Is there really truth to the idea that smell is a key part of taste? Gather up a few volunteers, hit the kitchen, and try this experiment to find out. Read more

Can Humans Recognize AI-Generated Images?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Can you tell if the pictures on this page are real or generated by a computer? Artificial intelligence (AI) generated images have exploded in popularity, bringing plenty of controversy along with them. An AI-generated image of a tiger or a flower might seem harmless, but artificial images of people or events can contribute to "fake news." In this science project you will investigate whether people can tell the difference between real pictures and pictures generated by AI. Can you spot the… Read more

How to Balance Anything

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Ever wonder why it is harder to keep your balance with a heavy backpack on? Or why it is difficult to make a toddler's sippy cup tip over? Maybe you are the kind of person who wonders about circus balancing acts and would like to learn how to ride a bike on a rope. Or perhaps you want to know how to make your toy car less prone to toppling over when racing through a sharp curve. In this science project you can learn about balance using marshmallows, skewers, and toothpicks. Sticky, yummy… Read more

Landslides: What Causes Rocks to Slide Down a Slope?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Landslides are powerful geological events that happen suddenly, causing fear in people who live in areas with unstable hills, slopes, and cliff sides. Landslides damage the surrounding habitat and can destroy homes in their path. But what causes landslides? Can slides happen on any slope, or do slopes have to have certain characteristics, such as a steep angle and a specific material mass? In this geology science project, you will learn about the different types of landslides and the… Read more

What Conflicting Mental Tasks Reveal About Thinking: The Stroop Effect

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Can you pat your head with one hand while you rub your stomach with the other? This science project idea is kind of like doing that, but this project can actually give you some insight into how your mind works. The task is to name colors. It sounds simple enough, but see what happens when color words get in the way. Read more

The Point of a Parabola: Focusing Signals for a Better Wireless Network

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Have you ever been annoyed by poor Wi-Fi reception for your phone, tablet, or laptop? Do you wish there was something you could do about it? In this project you will learn how to build a parabolic reflector that you can attach to the antenna of a regular wireless router to help boost its signal. Read more

Understanding the Emotions Hidden in Words with Sentiment Analysis

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Sentiment analysis helps us understand the emotions behind text, such as whether people feel positive, negative, or neutral about a topic. It is useful for analyzing opinions on social media, reviews, or other text data. In this project, you will gather text data on a topic of your choice and use a sentiment analysis tool called VADER (Valence Aware Dictionary and sEntiment Reasoner). Read more

Make Your Own pH Paper

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

This is a simple "kitchen chemistry" project about acid/base chemistry. Scientists measure the acidity or alkalinity of a solution using a logarithmic scale called the pH scale. In this project you'll learn about the pH scale, and you'll make your own pH indicator paper using a pH-sensitive dye that you'll extract from red cabbage. You can use your pH paper to measure the acidity/alkalinity of various household solutions. Read more

Bottled-up Buoyancy

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Do you dream about making deep, undersea voyages? Let this project take you 20,000 leagues under the sea! Investigate how submarines dive and surface by changing their buoyancy in this fun project. Read more
