Compare and Contrast

How does doing a science fair project compare to doing research in industry, a university, or in a research facility?

I believe its pretty much the same. It's still looking things up on the internet or finding it from some person who does this project or knows about it. I feel the research is the same in page numbers, findings, and format.

They all have the same type of systems that you would use to figure it out. They all have a hypothesis, problem, and various other things. They are all still as much work as anything else

It is pretty much the same. YOu have to do research in business just like you have to do in science fair. They compare to one another a lot.

Well, in my point of view, it could be seen in the same way. Either way you will have to do research. If your were in like a research facility it would probably make a big difference.

I think you have a better chance at learning something if you do it. You can sit and read and do all the research that you want but it doesnt mean that you are going to remember it better then if you do it yourself. So maybe doing the project is better then just doing the research on it.

It is pretty much the same. You have to look up your reasearch and find the backgroud of your project. The format is the same.

It is almost the same because you are trying to figure out different problems. You can look up information on the computer. You can become a good person in history for looking up projects and information just like a science fair project.

It is very similar. Science fair is preparing you fo college. However research done at a univeristy is done on a larger scale and probably much more scientific and precise.

You would still do research with all of them. To find information you have to do that in order to get the answers that you are looking for. You also do the same work for all of them.

It is basically that same thing. you brainstorm your idea. take steps in completing your research. The only that is different is the research that you are doing.

I think it is all kind of the same. You look up useful information and they both compare well. Science fair is just to prepare you for collage.

It the same thing. You have to know what your what your doing. You still look things up on the internet so you know what your talking about. I think that the research is the same in page numbers, findings, and format.

You would use the same philosophy. You need to learn about your experiment and then you go from there on completing you project. But its all the same.

All of their studies are like big science fair projects. They had to research and learn about the background. They also have to have control and variables so they get accurate results.
