The iWISE Olympiad would like to give young scientists an opportunity to engage with scientists and researchers from a variety of physical science backgrounds to pursue their passion for finding a solution to problems we face in our daily lives. In this category we want students to focus their research on Energy, Astronomy and Space Sciences, Matter and Material Sciences, Mechanics, Optics, Theoretical Physics etc.

Students ranging from 10 to 24 years old are welcome to participate in this category.

Aspiring physicists can explore the Physics Category through various subcategories:

Energy Productivity

Non-Renewable Energy

Renewable Energy

Astronomy & Space Sciences

Matter & Material Science

Mechanics

Mechatronics & Basic Robotic

Optics

Theoretical Physics

Knowledge Gained: Is there evidence the student researcher(s) have acquired scientific skills and/or knowledge by doing this project? Do the student researcher(s) recognize the scope and limitation of the problem he/she has selected?

Scientific Research: Has the problem been clearly stated? Have the student researcher(s) used scientific facts as a basis for new conclusions? Are the student researcher(s) aware of the basic scientific principles that lend support to the methods used and conclusions reached? Can the research be the basis for further study? Have the appropriate methods and scientific design been applied? Are the student researcher(s) aware of the empirical method (the necessity of repeating trials) and the importance of controlling the variables to reach valid conclusions?

Collaboration: Is there evidence of collaboration present? Identify the portions of the project representing the work of others. Others include student researchers, teachers, specialists in the field of study, etc.

Thoroughness/Information: How successfully was the original plan carried through to completion? Were adaptations to the study made? If so, were they made in a way that upholds the integrity of the study? Are known facts and principles stated correctly and used accurately? Have the results of experiments been reported accurately even though faulty experimental methods or conditions may have made the data unreliable? If so, have these errors been noted? Did the student researcher(s) identify areas of weakness in the study?

Results/Conclusion: Have the student researcher(s) started with known facts and drawn their own conclusions? Are the conclusions consistent with the data and/or observations? Did the student researcher(s) share what was learned because of the research? Can student researcher(s) effectively communicate the results and impact of the study?

Visual Display: Has the data been presented in the best manner for the information involved? Are spelling errors present? Does the exhibit demonstrate a general neatness and attractiveness? Is the display presented in a logical and interesting manner?
