10 Winning Science Fair Projects That Will Make You Feel Dumb
As beleaguered parents all over the country endeavor to prod their kids to finish their requisite science fair projects, some may find it helpful to provide some inspiration from past winners of the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. These are not your basic tabletop volcanoes or series of potted sunflowers. Many sport titles that you'd expect to see gracing the pages of the most prestigious scientific journals, and some of them actually have. Others became inventions developed for use in the wider world while their inventors were still in high school. Each and every one of these projects won their teenage researchers big prizes and hefty scholarships to ensure their future success.
7 Science Experiments That Changed the World
Unfortunately for many, the word "science" itself is enough to make their eyes glaze over. But fear not, it's not our fault. In fact, blame your science teacher, because in the end it really boils down to one word, "Presentation". Take history for example. History is, without question, the greatest story ever told. Yet how is it presented to the layman? As a series of dates that must be memorized. "Presentation" is why history is one of the least favorite subjects in our schools, yet one of the highest rated channels on our TV. Now look at science, and what is the layman presented with? Formulas. This is not a list of formulas. This is why science matters.
