Welcome to Regional Science Day at Belmont College!
The Ohio Academy of Science Regional Science Day at Belmont College is for students in grades 5-12 in Tuscarawas, Carrol, Jefferson, Coshocton, Harrison, Muskingum, Guernsey, Belmont, Noble, and Monroe counties.
Science Day and the preparation for it is a unique and fulfilling experience for students. Through their projects, students have the opportunity to explore fields of science and to learn and practice critical thinking, inquiry, technological design, and investigative skills. Students will learn research methods, including how to obtain data, keep a research log or notebook, graph data, and develop conclusions. Science fair projects foster imagination and elevate creative thought. Students will develop and enhance organizational and communication skills, and they will learn to work independently as well as in a group. They will meet other students interested in science, and students can earn recognition for academic excellence.

To begin a project or to prepare to submit a project for the 2025 Regional Science Day:
The student must create an account and “start a project” in ProjectBoard. Students can work in the Makers Space to develop a project, but this template cannot be submitted for competition. To submit to competition, students must complete the blue “Science Day” submission template. This template opens on December 9, 2024.
‣ Complete the necessary required “tiles/sections” in their project template
‣ Make sure that none of the “tiles” are in “Ready for Review” mode. They can be “completed” or in “draft” mode
‣ Make sure ISEF forms, final report and abstract are uploaded in the tile section, not in the comments section
‣ Check student profile information for completeness
‣ Submit the project
