Organizers Manual 3 Organisers' Manual Science Fair for Young Children Organizer Manual PREFACE For the past 5 years, we conducted the Young Scientific Explorers (YSE) which involved 360 students in 2004, 2005 (1120), 2006 (2094), 2007 (2000) and 2008 (2500). YSE was developed to introduce science to young people in a fun manner using everyday items. It was conducted by visiting the participating schools and exhibiting 8 simple experiments, followed by a visit to the National Science Centre. As a follow-up to this project, we successfully conducted the Science Fair for Young Children 2007. This project was a collaborative effort between The Centre for Community Initiatives (CCI) and Tamil Foundation, Malaysian Indian Science Intellectuals Association (MISI), Education, Welfare and Research Foundation (EWRF) and the Head Masters Council (Selangor). To take-off this pilot project, the Science Fair 2007 was held in Dewan Tunku Cancelor (DTC), University of Malaya. Forty Nine teams from 44 schools from Wilayah Persekutuan and Selangor participated in this fair. We were surprised to see how the participating students brought science to life as they tackled investigative questions through hands-on experiments, helping them develop and demonstrate their interests and strengths in science. We also noticed an increase in confidence by the participating students. In 2008, we conducted the Fair at a national level in 6 zones across Peninsular Malaysia. A total of 180 schools and 197 teams participated in 6 fairs across the country, as per below: 1. Zone 1: KEDAH, PENANG & PERLIS = 31 teams from 28 schools 2. Zone 2: PERAK – 21 teams from 18 schools 3. Zone 3: SELANGOR, WILAYAH PERSEKUTUAN - 58 Schools/ teams 4. Zone 4: MELAKA, NEGERI SEMBILAN - 4 Schools/ teams 5.

While scientific facts are important, facts alone, divorced from methods employed to discover or learn them are incomplete, could in fact hamper scientific progress. Students will learn science and its methods better if science is hands-on or experimental experience, whereby students are led on a path of discovering scientific truths. Young students will learn science as they seek to satisfy their curiosity. A Science Fair can be an exciting component for the mid-school science curriculum. Students bring science to life as they deal with investigative questions through hands-on experiments, helping them develop and demonstrate their interests and strengths in science. Among the many benefits of a Science Fair are: • Students approach of solving a problem of their choice using a scientific method. • Students ask questions, form hypothesis and create experiments to test their hypothesis. • Students observe records, organise relevant data and draw conclusions. • Students communicate their scientific research. • Students work in a 5- member Science Fair team. • Students budget their time, organise their work into manageable chunks, prepare a schedule and delegate work accordingly. • Students use reading, writing, research data and computer skills for their presentation. A Science Fair is a long term project, which spans several months. Students conduct most of the Science Fair work on their own, outside the classroom with periodic scheduled discussions with their science teacher. This format allows science teachers to continue their regular classroom curriculum, while having students engaged and working on the Science Fair project. Through the judging process, a Science Fair gives students feedback from many people, not just science teachers. Judges can be administrators, other academicians, school teachers, members of the community, parents, volunteers, etc. Students become excited and interested in participating in the Zone Level Science Fair, especially when there is an opportunity to participate in Science Fair competitions at the National level. Science Fair for Young Children Organizer Manual 1.1 The Purpose This project aims to improve on the concept, supporting structure and implementation tools of Science Fair and help organise science fairs primarily in Tamil Schools nationwide and create a greater awareness about science and scientific methods. It also aims to help motivate the students with the drive for achievement in their quest for knowledge. 1.2 Objectives 1. To review and improve resource materials in the teachers training materials, sample projects and guidelines for students on science projects. 2. To train all interested science teachers in Tamil Schools on the aspects of a good science project. 3. The State Level Science Fair would be divided into 9 zones by training local organising committees in their respective zones. 4. The National Level Science Fair would be conducted for the winners of the zone level Science Fair for Young Children Organizer Manual 2.0 ORGANIZATION 2.1 Organization Structure pg2.pdf 1 2/8/2012 5:44:20 PM In order to implement the Science Fair for Young Children, CCI works in partnership with the Malaysian Indian Science Intellectuals (MISI), Putra MIC, DHRAA Malaysia, ASTRO, various state Headmasters Councils other interested NGO’s and interested parties.

According to a report then by Bernama News Agency, the grandfathers of Tan Sri T. Ananda Krishnan and Tan Sri G. Gnanalingam had been brought to Malaysia from Jaffna by British colonial rulers to work in Malaysia¶s Public Works Department, a common practice then as Jaffna produced some of the most educated people in the whole country. Tan Sri Gnanalingam himself told one of our ministers that he wants to put something back into this country because his grandfather was Sri Lankan," Deputy Director-General of Sri Lanka's Board of Investment (BOI) Santhusht Jayasuriya had told a a group of visiting Malaysian journalists then, 2 according to the Bernama 2003 story. Gnanalingam, executive chairman of Malaysia's Westport, held talks with Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe during a visit to Malaysia in 2003 and the former followed up with a visit to Colombo. In the same year a Memorandum of Understanding was formalized in March this year between 'Westport' and the Sri Lanka Ports Authority (SLPA).

For anything to be meaningful, first it has to be useful; useful to both oneself and society. There are few subjects today that have been more useful to society than science. From science comes technology, which has arguably brought about the biggest change in society ever. Science and technology have freed humans to do more things, faster and more efficiently. This has resulted in a wealthier society, which, in return, gives us back time so that we could become more innovative. Today, innovation is the key factor that brings change - good or bad. Change is important, but is all change good? Can change bring us happiness? Would just learning facts and figures help us make better decisions in life or help solve complex problems? We believe that these are some of the very important questions that need to be answered, especially among the youth. They are to face a world that will change at a pace never seen before on Earth.
