SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND DESIGN
COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
This is a course allowing students to explore science while improving fundamental research skills, applying statistical analysis and enhancing oral and visual presentation techniques. Each student develops his/her own independent science research project and learns how to structure, organize, publish, and present the project in one or more formal presentations to a panel of judges.
Students are expected to attend various competitions such as Science and Engineering Symposium, Texas Junior Academy of Sciences, Regional Science Fair, Sate Science Fair, and International Science and Engineering Fair and so on. In addition, the members of the research class can host the Science Challenge, an annual competition for sixth through eighth grade students in HSE. As a main goal, students serve as role models for the younger students in the school in order to help maintain our strong, school wide science fair festival.
Each student in the class is responsible to keep track of his/her Science Fair project. For this reason students need to create a Google Doc, and follow the procedures, which are outlined in the Science Fair Research Paper (see the attachment).
