The Ecology Science Fair will focus on student-driven investigations in ecology and encourage students to engage in all steps of the research process, including data presentation. The fair is for elementary, middle school and high school students to present their ecology research, and share their findings with other students, teachers and scientists.
- Student presentations. Students share their ecology-related research by presenting their projects and answering interview questions from scientists.
- Fun breakout sessions. Students may also attend breakout sessions that include ecology and other STEM-related (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) presentations.
- Fish dissection. Minnesota Sea Grant Extension Program Leader and Fisheries and Aquaculture Extension Educator Amy Schrank will be leading students through a fish dissection during one of the breakout sessions.
- Additional information. Ecology Science Fair website.
