And if you’re entering a science fair locally, please feel free to post that project online with Google Science Fair, too!register online and create your project as a Google Site . Registration is open through April 4, 2011. Please note: you must get parental or guardian consent in order to compete. You can check out the complete rules here . After April 4, we’ll begin judging and will announce our semi-finalists in early May.judges will select a winner in each age category, as well as a grand-prize winner.Here's an example of a great science fair project site to inspire you. We asked Tesca, a U.S. high school senior from Oregon, to create it for us based on an award-winning project she’s been working on for years. Tesca’s objective is to make hospitals more efficient using artificial intelligence—a world-changing goal, to be sure.
I'm really excited to participate in the google science fair!! However, I'm trying to create my website, and it says the location I have chosen is unavailable. I have tried changing my URL many times, but that message keeps coming. Wondering if you could help me with that? Thanks!
