Display Your Experiments Well

A science fair project can be a lot of fun. Getting all the material together. Making the first prototype. Fixing all the flaws to get it functioning. It is a process that you can really enjoy. All the fun that you had as you went through the experiments in your project is not enough. It needs to be reflected to your judges. This is done by your display of the project.

The display board and the actual layout is what will be seen before you are heard. So it makes sense to give some thought to how you are going to showcase your science fair project. The right sized stand and background will make a difference. As will the colors that you use.

If you have been working on the project all by yourself, it is a good idea to get a second opinion on what to highlight. Since each aspect will seem important to you get a friend or teacher to help you choose the vital from the important.

The basic theory and your hypothesis are an integral part of the display. There are other elements that you might need to consider which are listed out in detail here. It might be well worth your time to see what tips you can get from others. Make sure you have a definite idea in mind before you start on the display.

Only when you are sure of what you want to show off and what you want to hide, will the project look great. Make sure that the images or diagrams you are using are neatly drawn. It would be a good idea to get computerized print outs if you can’t sketch too well. Just make sure that everything looks great.
