Abstract
Many students participating in Science Fairs: Mathematics category present excellent projects. Unfortunately, majority of this work is lost after the Fairs. A new digital platform has been developed to showcase student works and help to raise support: http://ScienceFairs.org. Students can create digital galleries, build teams, find sponsors, and support good-cause projects. Science Fair organizers can create multi-level galleries by using templates including forms and resources.
This poster presentation is intended for Math teachers and school administrators. It provides an overview of current practices in Science Fairs in different states with specific examples from the Florida State Science & Engineering Fair. It is aligned with the conference theme by providing new free educational tools facilitating learning of Math and sharing information online.
