SWLA Self Help For Hard of Hearing, Inc.

The SWLA Self Help For Hard of Hearing, Inc. is proud to sponsor, for the second year, an award in the  category of Medicine and Health.  The SWLA SHHH is a nonprofit group whose purpose is to provide education and support services and information for individuals, their families and friends, and for health care providers who care for hard of hearing adults and children.  The topic is Noise Awareness.  Displays and experiments, (in the elementary grades), concerning Noise Awareness will be entered in this category. Excessive noise is a problem today at manufacturing plants, airports, and rock concerts (just to name a few areas.) Prolonged exposure to excessive noise may cause your hearing to deteriorate.  We encourage students who are hard of hearing to participate in this project category.  We will be awarding a certificate to participants and a savings bond to the winner in the elementary division.  For information about noise awareness, contact the League for the Hard of Hearing at their web site www.lhh.org and the national headquarters for the Self Help for Hard of Hearing Persons, Inc at their web site www.shhh.org.  Industrial plants in our area may be sources of information for students and teachers who are interested in noise awareness as a science project topic.  For further information about the SWLA SHHH group, call 337-475-5836 or jdenny@mail.mcneese.edu .  The Louisiana Region 5 Science Fair would like to thank the SWLA SHHH and The Dennys for this special award and for promoting science, as well as noise awareness, in our youth.

U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

The U.S. Public Health Service offers a special challenge for students to develop science projects in regional science fairs affiliated with the ISEF.  Award winning projects will creatively illustrate and expand upon the following statements from the Surgeon General in the most excellent and persuasive manner:  

Regular physical activity throughout life is important for maintaining a healthy body, enhancing psychological well being, and preventing premature death.  Healthy People 2010 recommends that:

  • Adults get at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity most days of the week.

  • Adolescents engage in 20 minutes of vigorous physical activity 3 or more days per week.

A healthy diet and regular physical activity are both important for maintaining a healthy weight.  The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends that persons aged 2 years and older:

  • Choose a healthful assortment of foods that includes vegetables, fruits, whole grains, fat-free or low-fat milk products, and fish, lean meat, poultry or beans.

  • Choose foods that are low in saturated fat and added sugars most of the time

  • Eat sensible portions of food.

Tobacco use is a major risk factor for heart disease, stroke, lung cancer, and chronic lung diseases - all leading causes of death.

  • Cigarette smoking is the single most preventable cause of disease and death in the U.S.

  • Environmental tobacco smoke increases the risk of heart disease and significant lung conditions, especially asthma and bronchitis in children.

  • There is not safe tobacco alternative to cigarettes.  Spit tobacco causes cancer of the mouth, inflammation of the gums, and tooth loss.  Cigar smoking causes cancer of the mouth, throat, and lungs, and can increase the risk of heart disease and chronic lung problems. 

It is possible that one outstanding student project may be selected by the surgeon General and included in his national campaign.  This may include display of the student's project in the Secretary's Reception Room, Washington, D.C., and specific reference to the project results in the Surgeon General's public statements.

Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry

Louisiana Agriculture and Forestry Commissioner Bob Odom and the Department of Agriculture and Forestry would like to begin recognizing science fair participants who use agriculture and forestry related topics in their science fair projects. Our idea is to send a team of two or three judges to each regional science fair in the state and select one student at each fair to present with a certificate and savings bond. The project does not have to necessarily be a winner at the Regional fair, just a really good idea that relates to agriculture or forestry. Our goal is to encourage agriculture / forestry projects and to give recognition to students who realize that agriculture / forestry is one of the top two industries in the state.  The topics could include: crawfish, cattle, poultry, equine, pesticides, soil / water conservation, soybeans, sugarcane, cotton, sorghum, wheat / hay, rice, horticulture, commercial fruits / vegetables, corn, food safety, forestry practices, timber, urban forestry, weights and measures, dairy and many others. ** It is with great enthusiasm that Commissioner of Agriculture and Forestry Bob Odom would like to confirm a special award for each of your regional science fairs.  We will call it the Commissioner Bob Odom "Best in Agriculture and Forestry" Achievement Award. We will present a student in the junior and senior division an award certificate and a $50 U.S. Savings Bond. During the awards ceremony at each fair, one of the department of agriculture's judges will present a "dummy" certificate. The personalized certificate along with the savings bond will be mailed to each student. Commissioner Odom's office will send three judges to each science fair and one will present the award on his behalf.

Director's Choice Awards

If you have noticed on the project ideas page there is a link that says "Director's Choice Ideas".  I haven't seen very many students take advantage of these great ideas.  If there are projects  that are based on some of these ideas, and the projects follow the scientific method as well as other project guidelines, then that project will become eligible for the Director's Choice Award.  If there are no projects that based on these ideas, then I will then select from all entries.  I know I have said in the past that I would not get involved in any judging, but I have always wanted to sponsor an award.  Look upon this as an experiment in itself.   For 2008 I have decided to expand the Director's Choice Award to one per division - Elementary, Junior, and Senior.
