How to Prepare a Science Fair Project

The Science Fair Board has purchased 18 copies of a videotape entitled How to Prepare a Science Fair Project. This instructional videotape was professionally prepared by United Learning and runs 25 minutes. The video does an excellent job of outlining the scientific method and tells students step by step how to prepare a science fair project. The CSRA Science Fair Handbook should be consulted for rules however, because the videotape deviates somewhat from our rules. The most notable item is that the tape indicates each student will be interviewed by the judges, which is not done at the local fairs. At the Regional fair we do interview the High School Students only. Students and teachers are encouraged to make use of this resource. The tapes were distributed as follows:
