Wild Winds: Detecting Turbulence Around Structures

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Watch out! Eddies and vortexes are powerful regions of air and water flow that you have to watch out for in some surprising places. Try out this science fair project to discover why they can be dangerous, as well as where and how to find them. Read more

What's the Point of Boiling?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

You know that water can exist in three separate phases: solid (ice), liquid (water), and vapor (steam). To change from one phase to another, you simply add (or remove) heat. When water boils, what happens to molecules (for example sugar or salt) that are dissolved in the water? Do they boil off too, or do they stay behind? Read more

To Infinity and Beyond: Plan a City of the Future with Sim City.

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Everyday, people in your city or town walk to school, ride the bus and go to work, and go to the library to research their science fair projects. But what if the library was 20 miles away from your home? Would you go to the library? What if there were no police officers or fire stations in your city, or if they were located across town, away from where most people live? What if there were no movie theaters? What would you do with your friends? Many people really like living in cities in which… Read more

Can Machine Learning Solve a Maze?

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

Using artificial intelligence (AI) is easier and more accessible than ever! In this project, you will teach an AI to solve any maze. This project requires little to no coding skills; instead you will need curiosity, creativity, and a critical eye. Why not give it a try yourself? Read more

The Power of Heat Is Right Under Your Feet with Geothermal Energy

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

You might know that we are able to get renewable energy from the Sun, the wind, and water, but did you know we can get renewable energy from Earth itself? The temperature inside of Earth can reach 9,000°F—that kind of heat can be used to make a lot of energy here on the surface! This source of energy is called geothermal energy and it is all about taking advantage of the heat within Earth. So try this science fair project out and find out how to use the heat that lies beneath your… Read more

Dog Toys: What Makes One a Favorite or a Flop to Fido?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Got a pampered pooch in your household? Then you know how much most dogs love their toys. And not just any toy. It has to be that particular beat up ball, gnawed frisbee, or ratty not-so-plush-anymore bunny with only one eye and partial ear remaining. Seems that dogs, like people, have definite preferences for their play things. This fun project investigates what makes a toy interesting to a dog. In these experiments, you and your dog can have some fun while you learn about canine behavior… Read more

Explore Perceptrons: A Simple Type of Neural Network

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

Have the phrases "machine learning" or "neural network" caught your interest, but you are not really sure how to use them in a science project? This project is a great place to start for beginners. You will learn about a very simple type of neural network—a computer program modeled after the human brain—called a perceptron. The perceptron can make a simple yes/no decision based on several inputs. You can "train" your perceptron to improve its decision-making abilities. Try it and… Read more

Generate Customized Study Flashcards with Artificial Intelligence

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

Have you ever needed to make a lot of flashcards for a class, but didn’t have the time–or weren’t sure how to make ones that actually help you learn? Maybe you like studying on the go, or you’re trying to squeeze in a quick 10-minute review session between other things. In this project, you will learn how to use ChatGPT (or another AI tool of your choice like Gemini, Copilot, etc.) to generate effective study flashcards quickly and customize them to fit your class and… Read more

Distance and Constant Acceleration

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Have you ever dropped something and wondered how fast it was moving while falling? If it was something fragile, like a cell phone, you might not have been thinking about this at the time — you may have been too busy trying to grab the phone! But you probably wanted to find out just how hard it hit the ground afterwards. We know that gravity forces an object to fall, but how does this affect how quickly something falls and how hard it hits the ground? For example, did the phone move faster… Read more

Cold Room? Heat It Up with A Homemade Solar Air Heater

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

What do humans need to survive? We need food, water, and warm shelter. We all need a warm place to live, particularly when it's chilly outside. How do many of us warm our houses or apartments? We depend on fossil fuels to supply gas and electricity to our heaters. But burning fossil fuels to create energy is harmful to the environment. What if there was a way to warm our homes without burning fossil fuels and it was free? In this science fair project, you will build a solar air heater and see… Read more
