Renewable energy education in the classroom generally looks at renewable energy sources such as solar energy, hydroelectricity and wind power. What this means is that most projects related to this subject will focus on a singular energy source, but this is not your only option. You can also develop hybrid renewable energy projects that combine renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power.

Science activities can go one of two ways, it can inspire students to participate in class or it can discourage them from participating in class. In order to get your students to be more active in classroom lessons you need to look for exciting projects such as building and experimenting with salt water cars. This experiment and more are offered by educational science gifts which can be purchased to supplement your science curriculum.

Question: Dear Madeline
Some time ago you had something in one of your newletters about a science fair project dealing with chocolate. (coffee, cacao etc.) that one can use. Is it possible to forward the information to me. We would like to do something along that line for our next project. My Child is 12 years old.
E Leonarde
Answer: Elbie, I honestly don’t know where it is at.
There are about 5000 pages on the site and I hired a professional science writer
who just got her Phd to write the articles.
Go to www.super-science-fair-projects.com and use the search button,
put in the word coffee, then try cacao if you cannot find it.
Here are a couple that I found. You may be able to find more:
Renal Function Science Fair Project and Science Fair Project on Foliage and Nutrients.

This week we are going to talk about the next step in creating super science fair projects, drawing your conclusions. Your conclusions are going to be based on your data analysis, that you conducted in the last step, as well as on the background research your conducted earlier. This is a very important step in your project’s development, and a step that has the potential to make or break your research project.
The first thing that you will want to do is to really look at the results from your experiment. You will want to test the results for accuracy and to test them for Type I and Type II errors. Next you will want to draw preliminary conclusions based only on what your data suggests. Then you will need to refer back to your research to see if your findings are supported by the findings from previous research experiments.
If your results don’t support your hypothesis, or if they are contrary to what your background research predicted then you need to conduct additional research. The focus of this research will be to find a possible reason why you had different results. You may want to look for a research project that found similar results or that offers an explanation of why your results were different.
The final segment of your conclusion section will be a discussion about your findings. In this segment you will want to explain why you think your results either supported or did not support your hypothesis. You will want to also talk about your extra research in this section.
