Describes a senior seminar format designed around broad year-long subjects. This alleviates disconnectedness by building upon material learned weekly. One format highlight is that students choose topics from a list for reading, research, and background preparation to lead a discussion. They also submit research papers on their topic. The new…

Presents ideas for motivating students to create an informative and interesting physics project while becoming actively involved in learning the associated physics concepts. Discusses the use of physics projects as an alternative to lecture and traditional tests, using creativity and original ideas, and benefits to the school and the community.…

Examines the influence of project activities based on multiple intelligences on the science achievement of elementary school children. Explains the proportions of variance of science achievement by General Intelligence (GI), analyzes Multiple Intelligences (MI), and investigates the influence of project activities that used various aspects of MI.…

Describes the structure of an in-depth laboratory project chemical engineering. Provides modeling work to guide experimentation and experimental work on heat transfer analysis. Discusses the experimental results and evaluation of the project. (YP)

High school students discuss the process of conducting original scientific research in a high school biology course, including developing an idea, obtaining financial support, collecting data, and presenting findings. (MKR)

Describes a chemistry classroom project of forming a company to acquire 10,000 pounds of zinc sulfate monohydrate from a company that wanted to dispose of it. The zinc was eventually sold to an agricultural company for use in fertilizer. (PR)

Outlines and illustrates the Dartmouth approach to developing a science project. This problem-solving approach, promoted by the Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth College, helps teachers in guiding students in all phases of project work. (JRH)

Outlines the steps necessary to conduct a science fair project and examines two specific examples of how a basic idea for a science fair topic can be followed to its completion. Provides examples of day-to-day operational science in a basic botany project and a lunar geography project. (JJK)

Introduces the basics of radio astronomy and describes how to assemble several simple systems for receiving radio signals from the cosmos. Includes schematics, parts lists, working drawings, and contact information for radio astronomy suppliers. (11 references) (Author/JJK)

Describes a project designed to allow middle school students to learn some science concepts through application of science and mathematics lessons. (ZWH)

Describes how two science coordinators involved their whole school community in ensuring their "Science Week" was a great success. (Author)

To adapt the focus of engineering education to emerging new industries and technologies nationwide and in the local area, a biomechanics module has been developed and incorporated into a mechanical engineering technical elective course to expose mechanical engineering students at ONU (Ohio Northern University) to the biomedical engineering topics.…
