As IB philosophy had pointed out, creativity and innovation will be two of the most important elements that prepare students for future challenges. As an IB continuum school, Boston International School always lay great emphasis on students’ scientific and technological studies in order to develop their abilities to adapt the constantly changing world.

The research projects covered various areas from Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Health Science, Design and other subjects. The Science Fair has provided students a great stage to perform their creative minds and research outcomes.

Physics 
Excellent Sample: How Center of Gravity affects our actions
The center of gravity is the average location of the weight of an object. Center of gravity is an imaginary point in the body of any objects around which the force of gravity appears to act. The concept is sometimes useful in designing static structures or in predicting the behavior of a moving body when it is acted on by gravity.

A few stunning and simple experiments can show us how ubiquitous center of gravity is in our life. Whenever you are standing, sitting, and even sleeping, center of gravity collaborates with gravity on making sure that you are stable and safe.

 

Biology 
Excellent Sample:  Bacteria Colonies on Different Surfaces
If crackers dropped on different surfaces for five seconds, will the bacteria breed on them?To test the bacteria breeding, the students tested it on three kinds of surfaces: not dropped, dropped on the dining table, dropped on the floor.

All three samples were cultivated for 120 hours. It shows that both foods items that have been dropped gained a significant number of bacteria, especially the cracker that has been dropped on the floor. After completing this experiment, it shows that the five second rule is not true.

 

Chemistry
Excellent Sample: Citrus Fruit Volcano
What happens when different kind of citrus fruits(acid) react with different bases? The students used different kinds of citrus fruits as the materials and then compared grape fruits and lemon with baking soda and ammonia.

As a result, lemon with baking soda reacts most. Lemon juice contains citric acid which when mixed with the base, baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), reacts to form carbon dioxide and sodium citrate which causes the liquid to fizz and bubble.

Life Science 
Excellent Sample: Action of hydrogen peroxide on liver
The liver is a very important organ, the students wanted to find out what is the function of the liver and the enzyme in the liver. Catalase is an enzyme in the liver that breaks down harmful hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water.
