Student Research Symposia Project Review

"Science is more about learning and expanding information, rather than winning an award."
- 2017 SRS Participant

Review Feedback Forms:

Just as professional scientists submit their work for peer-review, students at the Student Research Symposia will present their research projects (through a poster presentation) to reviewers - scientists and STEM professionals.

Students will also review each others work. Help your students practice this skill with the peer-review feedback form below and this slideshow about how to be an effective reviewer.

Projects will be recognized that demonstrate exemplary work in an area of scientific research. **In order for a project to receive recognition, it must use GLOBE Protocols and/or GLOBE data. Data must be uploaded to the GLOBE website PRIOR to the SRS.** If needed, ask your local Partnership for support and/or check out the Uploading Data webinar.

The possible categories for this recognition are:

  • Use of GLOBE Protocols/Data (use, analysis and visualization)
  • Research Process (question, methods, conclusion)
  • Community Impact and Engagement
  • 21st Century Skills (collaboration, communication, creativity, critical thinking/problem solving)
  • Indigenous/Community Knowledge (Elder connections, Indigenous Knowledge, stories, values, language, history)
