Why come

Leave with a framework for building successful science fair projects.

  1. Start with a real local problem
    Santa Clara County's water is the working example.
  2. Go to primary sources
    Work from published data and reports, not summaries of them.
  3. Find the question you can measure
    Turn a broad topic into something you can test.
  4. Weigh the trade-offs, then pitch
    Present your idea clearly and defend your choices.
In two hours you will
  • Learn where Santa Clara County's water comes from
  • Look at the county's water quality and conservation challenges
  • Practice turning a local problem into a science fair project idea
