I think you have the right idea here. I think encouraging these types of competition is always a step in the right direction and starts to get minds thinking on things outside of the TV reality world. Having mixed teams is also a good idea as it gets children used to working with each other a young age.

Yes, I think so. I taked part in science competitions for three times when I was a student and have good influences on all my life.

Kids love science projects because they’re fun. Make the project about toys, volcanoes, or explosions, and you’ve got a bunch of enthusiastic students.

For science there is a motto. “You can never start young enough.” Encouraging kids for science is very good.

The process is so important because then a child learns something they can use the rest of their lives. That is what science fairs, in my opinion, are really all about.

As a teacher you know the importance of having the students get into the process of the project. If more of our kids would involve themselves in a science fair and go through the ‘process’ then what the students would learn would go beyond just their project alone. They would hopefully acquire a joy for the learning process itself.

Our district has started a rotation where one year we do a science fair and then the next we do an “Invention Convention” It keeps things fresh.

Your idea has possibilities as well.

This brings back memories of back in 9th grade when I did a science project based on solar energy. I didn’t get 1st place though I did get 2nd place for my science project.

Ken, it didn’t matter that your experiment ‘failed miserably’. Look at how many time Edison failed at inventing the light bulb. It’s about the process. And you never will forget the experience.
