SUIS Gubei held the annual Science Fair Friday, October 25, 2024, in the basketball court. The 2024 SUIS Science Fair theme was COLOR! Groups conducted experiments following the scientific method to test one aspect of color. The Chemistry Summer Holiday Homework helped students formulate Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Psychology research questions of special interest, which G9 and G10PIB students then shared with group members, narrowing ideas down to one, testable, measurable research question. Students were encouraged to choose a research question that interested them, and that they found fun and exciting!
10月25日,协和古北隆重举行了一年一度的科学展。2024年科学展览的主题定为“颜色!”,各研究小组遵循科学方法论,对颜色的特定属性进行了实验性探究。化学暑期作业为学生提供了跨学科的研究问题,涉及生物学、化学、物理学及心理学等领域,这些问题极具吸引力。G9和PIB G10 的学生们随后与小组成员共同探讨,将研究问题细化为可操作、可量化的研究课题。学生们被激励去选择一个自己感兴趣的课题,一个他们认为既有趣又令人兴奋的课题。
After an in-class brainstorming session, and teacher approval of their research question, students performed the experiments at home between September 13 – October 13, 2024. Students were encouraged to plan experiments using only materials and equipment found at home or in grocery stores.
在9月13日至10月13日的期间,学生们在课堂上进行了创意性的头脑风暴,老师对他们的研究课题给予了认可。学生们被鼓励仅利用家中或超市可获取的材料和设备来设计实验。
Over 95 groups submitted Science Fair Displays. Popular experiments included “How the Color of Objects Affects Temperature Change,” “How the Color of Paper/Ink/Tablecloths Affect Memory,” and “How pH Affects the color of Natural Indicators.” Unique projects ideas included “How Color of Habitat Affects Cricket Appetite,” “How Light Refracting on Butterfly Wings Affect the Color Humans See,” and “How Sheet Color Affects the Quality of Sleep.” Up for grabs are 28 different Science Fair Awards ranging from Best overall, Best in Biology, Chemistry, or Physics, to the Best Use of Psychology, Plants, Animals, Photography, etc. Awards will also include Best Display, Best Title, and even The Grossest Experiment. Awards will be presented at the G9 Gubei Community Event on December 12, 2024. Students and parents are welcome to attend the Science Fair Awards Ceremony.
共有超过95个小组提交了科学展览的展品。一些受欢迎的实验主题包括“物体颜色对温度变化的影响”、“纸张/墨水/桌布颜色对记忆的影响”以及“pH值对天然指示剂颜色的影响”等。一些独特的项目想法涵盖了“栖息地颜色对蟋蟀食欲的影响”、“蝴蝶翅膀上的光线折射如何影响人类所见颜色”以及“床单颜色对睡眠质量的影响”等。展览将颁发28个不同类别的奖项,包括最佳综合奖、最佳生物学奖、化学奖、物理学奖,以及最佳心理学奖、植物奖、动物奖、摄影奖等。奖项还将包括最佳展示奖、最佳标题奖,以及“最恶心实验”奖。
颁奖典礼定于12月12日的家长会期间举行,届时欢迎学生及家长参加科学展览颁奖仪式。
