~Step 1~Begin by thinking
about…• A problem in my community or
neighborhood.• A situation that I’d like to improve.• A current topic I’ve been hearing about
in the news.• Who I’d like to help…my target
audience.• A product that is of interest to me?• A career option…anything interesting?
The key to a good project . . .
• APPLICATION TO SOCIETY!!!
If working with a partner . . .
• 3 feasibility ideas per person.– (Same topic, but each has own variable testing.)
• Remember, individual grades for partner projects. (Each does own paper, data, etc.)
• Each will be interviewed separately.• Each will have a log book. • Parents will still “sign off” on any portion
completed in that parents’ presence.
Overview
• Read & Highlight INTEL handbook • Complete scavenger hunt• Start Science Log book (Brainstorm ideas &
find ones that pass the checklist test.)• Parents need to sign logbook for any entries
done in their presence.
• 3 Feasibility papers due Monday 8-31-15
Next…
• Get parent permission. • http://www.societyforscience.org/isef/

from the beginning!• Think about a possible hypothesis.
