Perceptions And Attitudes Of Students, Teachers, And Parents About Middle School Science Fairs, Norma Beth Greenfield

Theses Digitization Project

The problem addressed in this study was to determine what students, parents, and teachers perceive to be the main reason a school has a science fair, and whether they believe science fairs accomplish their goals. Attitudes toward competition, awarding of prizes, voluntary versus required participation, and alternatives to science fairs were also examined and compared among the groups.
