3 reasons why your students should participate in the UMN Extension Ecology Science eFair:
- Your students will present their projects virtually, in real-time, to a scientist on the day of the Fair and receive positive and constructive feedback.
- The Ecology Science eFair is several weeks before the MN Regional Science & Engineering Fairs - making it a perfect low-pressure practice opportunity for your students!
- The Ecology Science eFair is utilizing the same virtual platform, zFairs, as the MN State Science & Engineering Fair.
REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN AT https://mn-esf.zfairs.com/! The deadline for Teacher Registration is October 30 & Student Registration is November 19. Here is a guide to help with registration.
The Ecology Science Fair provides a forum for elementary, middle school and high school students to present their research. Due to continued COVID uncertainty, this year’s Fair will be held 100% virtually. To reflect this, we have dubbed this year’s fair the Ecology Science eFair!
Students conduct research where they are—whether at school, a local park, or at home—and share their findings with scientists, teachers, and other students in this annual celebration of student achievement. Fun virtual ecology-related STEM presentations and a Virtual Showcase of all projects make this day an exciting science experience for all!
