Predicting Future Water Quality with Machine Learning
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Understanding the water quality of our rivers, streams, and lakes is critical for maintaining healthy ecosystems and sources of drinking water. Dissolved oxygen is one key water quality measurement that impacts aquatic life. But how can we predict how water quality might change in the future so we can intervene to keep our water healthy? With machine learning! In this project, you will gather water quality data for a location of your choice and use a random forest model to predict future… Read more
Build Personal Playlists with Machine Learning
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
AI has the power to organize data into categories—even when it is not given clear instructions. In this project, we will create an unsupervised K-Means learning model that organizes songs into distinct groups based on their similarities. The best part? You don't need advanced coding skills; just bring an open mind and a desire to explore the fascinating intersection of music and technology. Are you ready to embark on this exciting journey?

How to Make a Dimmer Switch with a Pencil
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Dimmer switches let us control the brightness of a light, anywhere from completely off to full brightness. This can be nice when you want to set the brightness "just right," as opposed to a regular light switch that only lets you turn a light on or off. It turns out that you can make a dimmer switch out of an everyday object—a pencil! Try this project to find out how a dimmer switch can control the brightness of a light. Read more
Make a Spacecraft Motion Simulator!
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
How do you practice landing a spacecraft on another planet or docking it with a space station? With a spacecraft motion simulator here on Earth! In this engineering project, you will design and build your own cable-driven spacecraft motion simulator that lets you move a model spacecraft around in three-dimensional space. Read more
Save Those Spoiling Strawberries!
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Fresh strawberries and summer just go together. Walking through the local farmers' market on a warm day, the bright, red strawberries call out to you, beckoning you to buy them and take them home. The next day, as you get ready to savor the delicious berries, you notice that yesterday's juicy, red strawberries are now covered in...eewwww, mold! In this cooking and food science fair project, you will investigate thermotherapy and whether this technique can preserve strawberries and prevent mold… Read more
Squirmy Wormy: Which Soil Type Do Earthworms Like Best?
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Do you think worms are gross? Or that they are only good for birds or fish to eat? Well, in this zoology science project, you will find out that this lowly animal helps to put food on your table, too, by all the hard work that it does in the dirt. In this science project, you will discover in what kind of soil it likes to do its work. It is wiggly good fun! Read more
Growing Plants on Mars
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
To be able to live on Mars, humans need breathable air, clean water, and nutritious food. Spacesuits can provide oxygen to breathe, ice on Mars can be a source of water, but how could we get nutritious food? Today's astronauts bring food with them. But a manned trip to Mars would require food that was either successfully grown in space or on Mars, as taking the extra weight of food for such a long time—it takes 6–9 months one way—is just too costly. In this project, you will… Read more
Use Super-strong Magnets to Make a Simple Motor
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
In this science project, you will build what might be the world's simplest motor. It has just four basic parts: magnets, a battery, a screwdriver, and a short piece of wire. It takes only minutes to assemble, but it provides a wonderful device to explore how electricity and magnetism combine to produce a fast-spinning motor. 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
It's Written All Over Your Face: The Science of Facial Expressions
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Okay, now you've done it. You goofed off, didn't study for your math test, and didn't do well. Mom and Dad are not going to be happy. In fact, they might even be angry. They don't say anything when they see your test, but you can tell from their faces that they are angry. But how can you tell? How can you tell if someone is angry, or happy, or sad? The answer is that you have learned how to tell someone's emotional state from his or her facial expressions. Are facial expressions of happiness or… Read more
