mykdsrock asked:


My son wants to participate in the science fair and there is an extra incentive if your project involves “water and energy”. We’re looking for a list of projects to choose from. He’s very into science so something a little higher then his grade level might be ok.

Steph asked:


I’m a freshman, and today we began working on our science fair project. I’m thinking about testing the affects of different organic/natural additives on a common plant (carbon, sulfur, alcohol, etc.). I know this is a vague thought, but is it too simple? Just right? Are there any tips that you have for me? Also, I know that I have to determine what type of plant and the different additives i will use. Please comment and critique tremendously. Thank you!

survey taker asked:


Hi,

Mathematics and computer science are not natural sciences, applied sciences (technology) or social sciences.
So, what kind of sciences are they?

I found out that they may belong to constructive sciences or formal science but I am not sure.

PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER WITH LINKS.

Thanks.

What can be done to encourage science-types to become teachers?

Thursday, July 16th, 2009 | Science | 10 Comments

kris asked:


I teach at a state college that has a strong education department, mostly elementary ed. In my state, you cannot *major* in education, you have to pick an ordinary major or an interdisciplinary one. The vast majority of education students major in something other than science (or math, for that matter). For example, for incoming freshmen, there are 41 who are doing an interdisciplinary major, and *none* of those are in the sciences (there is an interdisciplinary science major).

Why is there such a disparity? Why don’t kids who like science go into teaching? Or, why do kids who go into teaching not like science? And what can be done to get more science-types to go into teaching, besides obvious things like increase teachers saleries.
