  1. Project Title Name(s) School Grade(s)

  2. Overview • An excellent film or presentation will provide a clear, brief overview of the question you are investigating, the stages of your project, what you set out to achieve and how far you succeeded Must contain an imbedded video no longer than 2:00 minutes, containing an overview of the project. Narrated by the student (or team of students), containing no more than 20 slides. Judges will review only the first 2:00 minutes of videos. • How to embed the video: Create the video first and save the file. Embed using instructions on the right of this page. School_Project Title

  3. Question • An excellent question will be interesting, creative, worded scientifically and relevant to the world today. Your slide should also include your thought process and preliminary research on why you selected the question. (250 Word max, no pictures on this slide) Find a question that interests you about something that you have observed, noticed or wondered about. School_Project Title

  4. Hypothesis • An excellent hypothesis will lead on from the question, be tightly focused and build on existing knowledge and be testable. (An Engineering/Invention project will have a design goal instead of hypothesis). A hypothesis should be a single sentence (no pictures on this slide/page). What is your hypothesis? Try to address something that you believe is challenging which you are able to answer in a single experiment. School_Project Title

  5. Research • Excellent students will undertake research to help them shape their question and hypothesis and to put their work into a relevant, real-world context. (Engineering/Invention show research how new product will meet a need better than an existing product, how it fills a need). (500 Word max, no pictures on this slide/page) • Figure out what others have found out about your subject area or question. How has your research helped you to refine your question and ask something that may not be unique, but is relevant and interesting and not already answered. School_Project Title

  6. Experiment • Excellent students will demonstrate that they have used good experimental techniques and describe their experiment clearly and in detail. (Engineering/Invention should show schematics, assembly information, refining of design, prototyping) (500 Word Max; summary explaining the procedures, variables, materials, & testing/experimental trials. Pictures are very appropriate on this slide/page). • Design and execute an experiment that tests your hypothesis. Include descriptions of the materials, equipment, and methods/techniques you used. Explain the variables and how they will be controlled, manipulated and measured. Also detail any key steps to avoid errors, risks and safety. School_Project Title

  7. Data/Observations • -Excellent data will be relevant, sufficient to support a conclusion and should be recorded accurately and precisely, and be presented clearly. -Excellent observations will describe patterns or trends supported by the data. (Engineering/Invention project show evidence of testing, applications of invention) (500 Word Max, record data, charts, graphs, lists are appropriate on this slide/page). • Report on all of the data, numbers, outputs or outcomes from your experiment. Show an understanding of what you saw happening during your experiment. Describe the patterns and trends you saw emerge as you worked. School_Project Title

  8. Conclusion • An excellent conclusion will explain how the experiment answers the question or why it fails to do so and whether or not it supports the hypothesis. (500 Word Max, no pictures on this slide/page). How did your experiment support or contradict your original hypothesis? How could you improve your experiment? Did everything go as planned or were there unexpected results? Does what you learned lead to a new question to ask or experiment that would answer it? If so, why would it be important, interesting, or useful to do? School_Project Title

  9. Works Cited • Excellent students will acknowledge and provide clear references for sources of information that they have consulted and/or referenced and acknowledge any assistance received (e.g. to find equipment and materials, to stay safe or to use unfamiliar equipment or techniques). Use a bibliography generator such as citationmachine.net to document articles you read, people you interviewed etc. School_Project Title
