How the Young Scientist Challenge Works
Introduction to the Young Scientist Challenge
All of us have taken a science class at one time or another. Some recall science with feelings of excitement, wonder and awe. Some continue their studies in science throughout the rest of their education. And some even take their love of science and make a career out of it. But for most, science is not a happy subject. Do you think back to studying science and get a feeling of dread, anxiety or fear? When did you lose interest in science — sometime around middle school? Well, you’re not alone.
Studies have shown that an interest in science is either piqued or lost in middle school. Think back to that time in your life. It probably wasn’t the best time, was it? That time is full of awkwardness, pain and peer pressure. At that age, children begin to really grow and mature. And in doing that, they begin to find out what they’re really interested in. But children are also extremely impressionable, and their friends may not like the interests they’re developing. Let’s face it — science and math aren’t the most glamorous subjects around, and kids don’t want to seem uncool. So they give up science and move on to study other things.
But those kids who give up science and math miss so much that it’s nearly impossible for them to catch up with their peers. So educators are taking a proactive stance and doing everything they can to keep interests high — they want science and math to be cool again. But it’s not just teachers that are noticing the danger of losing students. Corporations are, too. After all, if no one is studying science, who’s going to come to work for them one day? Two companies are even partnering to promote science nationally. Discovery Education and 3M have come together to present a national science competition, Young Scientist Challenge. How does this challenge work? Who can participate, and how do students get started? Read on to find out how you can become a young scientist.
The Young Scientist Challenge from the Beginning
The challenge began in 1999 after Discovery Communications noticed the waning interest in science. After reading the studies about middle school children, it wanted to do something to make it exciting, so the company created a contest in the hope of making science fun. Since the competition began, countless students have competed for a nomination to participate in the challenge, with just 51 of those winning that nomination each year (one from each state and the District of Columbia). From there, only 10 students secure a place in the finals and win an all-expense paid trip to the competition.
If you want to be the 10th the Young Scientist, crack open your computer and bust out your video camera. If you’re in the fifth through the eighth grades, you can register at Discovery Education. Once registration has been completed and accepted, it’s time to get creative.
Each year the judges choose a theme for the challenge. They can be huge topics, but don’t let that scare you. Along with the theme, the judges also release topics for students to focus on. This helps to keep everything fair — and not overwhelming.
Once you pick your topic, it’s time to start writing, but you’ll need to write a script instead of an essay. Students are required to submit a video showing off their knowledge of their topic of choice. But think twice before you hire actors or a director. Videos will be accepted only if the student is the only one in the video and if the video is obviously done by the student. “Producing” isn’t allowed.
You’d better keep it short and sweet, too. Video submissions have to be longer than 60 seconds but can’t exceed 120 seconds. In those two minutes, the judges will be looking for creativity, relevance, persuasiveness, classroom suitability and overall presentation. Once your video is ready to go, upload it to the Web site and sit tight. Discovery will alert you of the winners sometime over the summer. But you’re not in the clear yet. Of the 51 winners (one from each state and the District of Columbia), only 10 will be officially invited to attend the challenge.
The Finals of the Young Scientist Challenge
Steven Jacobs is an accomplished scientist, teacher and author with more than two decades of experience and three advanced degrees. He’s also the head judge for the Discovery Education and 3M Young Scientist Challenge. Judge Jake, as the contestants refer to him, is accompanied on the judge’s panel by a mixture of historians, producers, physicians, marine biologists and other scientists. As we mentioned in the previous section, the judges determine the theme and the topics, as well as watch all of the video submissions and narrow the contestants down to 10.
Over the course of the final competition, the contestants will face a series of challenges laid out by the judges. What kind of challenges, you ask? No one will know until the competition begins. It’s top secret. Some past challenges have included building greenhouses to seal off CO2 and investigating serious health concerns. The only hint the contestants get is that all of the challenges will revolve around the theme.
The challenges are designed to highlight a student’s leadership, teamwork, problem-solving skills and communication. At the end of the competition one student will stand out amongst the finalists, and he or she will be named America’s Top Young Scientist of the Year. And while the title’s nice, let’s get to the prizes.
The winner is not the only one who gets awards. Each of the 51 semifinalists will get $250, along with a certificate and T-shirt. The 10 finalists will get these things, as well as a paid trip to the competition, $1,000 and a medal. But this is nothing compared to what the grand prize winner gets: all of the above items, plus $50,000 in U.S. Savings Bonds, a trophy and bragging rights for being the smartest kid on the block.

预测一 :Free Admission to Parks
1. 越来越多的公园免费开放,目的是什么
2. 也会带来一些问题
3. 你的看法
范文一 :【范文】
Free Admission to Parks
To encourage people to go outside and relax, a mounting number of parks offer free admission now. People benefit from it, especially during these tough economic times. With free entry, more people will have the opportunity for affordable vacations for families, taking pleasure in the natural landscape.
Fresh air and landscapes in parks are good for people. However, too many people
flocking into parks might not be so good for the parks.
For example, some visitors leave their garbage behind, which may cause environmental pollution. And people’s barbeques and stamping will also bring damage to the grassland and other greeneries in parks.
As a university student, I’m in favor of free admission to parks. Free entry to parks not only saves people’s expenditure, but also makes things fairer — people like the poor and students can go to parks frequently as well. On the other hand, visitors should be informed to preserve the environment while enjoying the beauty of the nature.
预测二 :Due Attention Should Be Given to Speaking 金大话英语培训网
1. 如今不少学生在英语学习中不重视口语
2. 出现这种现象的原因是……
3. 为改变这种状况,我认为……
范文二 :【范文】Due Attention Should Be Given to Speaking
Nowadays fewer and fewer students pay attention to their spoken English, which results in a dramatic increase in the number of students who can spell English words but are incapable of speaking them fluently or correctly. This phenomenon has aroused many people’s attention.
Why does such a phenomenon emerge? As far as I’m concerned, there are possibly two reasons contributing to this phenomenon. On the one hand, exam-oriented education makes many schools lay emphasis on passing the English exams, which leads to the lack of speaking environment for students to practice their spoken English. On the other hand, students themselves don’t realize the importance of the ability to speak English which has a great influence on their future
study and career development.
To change this situation, I think, we can take the following measures. First, the importance of oral English should be emphasized to raise students’ awareness of the necessity of speaking English. Second, exams should be modified to make students pay attention to their spoken English. Third, schools can organize various activities to arouse students’ interest in speaking English.
