This article has all the information you need to complete a Science Fair Project, including instructional step-by-step video, documentation, required forms, experimentation tips and tricks, and how to squeeze your great idea into the scientific method.

[am4show have='p8;p9;p36;p63;' guest_error='Guest error message' user_error='User error message' ] Step 1: Download the Project Guide.

Step 2: Watch the video here...... but note that this video is LOOOOOONG - nearly 2 hours! We just didn't want to forget anything, and we also wanted to give you all the best information we have, so enjoy! (And you'll find that the video intro is the same as the last project's.) If you just want the Measuring the Speed of Light video itself without all the Science Fair stuff, click here for project-only video.


Step 3: Download the parts list and data sheet. (You'll need the free Adobe Reader view the PDF files.)

Step 4: Set up and do your experiment.

Step 5: Log your data and chart your graphs. You can get Excel for free at this link. OR... download a copy of Excel from Microsoft. Once you have Excel running, use it to chart your data. Click here for sample Excel file.

Step 6: Write your report. You'll find a sample report in the Project Guide.

Step 7 : Build your display board and exhibit. Find tips & tricks in both the video and the Project Guide. Click here to view the sample display board format. [/am4show]
