A science fair or engineering fair is an event hosted by a school that offers students the opportunity to experience the practices of science and engineering for themselves. In the United States, the Next Generation Science Standards makes experiencing the practices of science and engineering one of the three pillars of science education.
The history of phenomenon demonstrating concepts, which lead to specific definitions, goes back to the careful observations of ancient Greek philosophers and natural philosophy. Socrates , Plato , and Aristotle attempted to carefully define words that included natural phenomena and objects.
The Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) is an annual science fair in the United States. [1] It is owned and administered by the Society for Science, [2] a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Washington, D.C. [3] Each May, more than 1800 students from roughly 75 countries and territories compete in the fair for scholarships, tuition grants, internships, scientific ...
A science project is an educational activity for students involving experiments or construction of models in one of the science disciplines.

Brookings effect (atmospheric science) (Curry County, Oregon) (Oregon coast) (Oregon geography) (winds) Brown Willy effect (geography of Cornwall) (mesoscale meteorology) Bruce effect (reproduction) Bullwhip effect (distribution, retailing, and wholesaling) Butterfly effect (chaos theory) (physical phenomena) (stability theory)
The phenomenon-based approach is a form of anchored learning, although it is not necessarily linked to technology. The questions asked and items studied are anchored in real-world phenomena, [6] and the skills that are developed and information learned can be applied across disciplines and beyond the learning environments in real-world ...
The New York City Science and Engineering Fair (NYCSEF) is an annual science fair contested by around 700 high school students from Queens, Manhattan, Bronx, Brooklyn and Staten Island, [1] [2] [3] making it the largest high school research competition in New York City. [4] About 150 participants advance to the finals round. [1]
The Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE) Program is a worldwide hands-on, science and education program focusing on the environment, now active in over 125 countries worldwide. [1] It works to promote the teaching and learning of science, enhance environmental literacy and stewardship, and promote scientific ...
