This list of citizen science projects involves projects that engage all age groups. There are projects specifically aimed at the younger age demographic like iTechExplorers [ 7 ] which was created by a 14 year old in the UK to assess the effects of bedtime technology on the body's circadian rhythm and can be completed in a classroom setting.

The following is a list of notable unsolved problems grouped into broad areas of physics. [1]Some of the major unsolved problems in physics are theoretical, meaning that existing theories seem incapable of explaining a certain observed phenomenon or experimental result.
Physics First is an educational program in the United States, that teaches a basic physics course in the ninth grade (usually 14-year-olds), [1] rather than the biology course which is more standard in public schools. This course relies on the limited math skills that the students have from pre-algebra and algebra I.
This student is carrying his science project to school. Display projects involve a creative assembly of a display board and construction of a model to show a visual representation of a larger fact. Making a model of the Solar System, a house, or of a simple electric circuit are considered display projects. Display boards are used to enhance the ...
The project was active from 1962 to 1972, and produced the Project Physics series of texts, which were used in physics classrooms in the 1970s and 1980s. The project was centered at Harvard University , but drew from schools and educators from across the country.
Problem-based learning: A group of 8-10 students and a tutor meet together to study a "case" or trigger problem. One student acts as a chair and one as a scribe to record the session. Students interact to understand the terminology and issues of the problem, discussing possible solutions and a set of learning objectives. The group breaks up for ...
