Given above are some of the ideas for designing the exhibits on different sub-themes in the
context of the main theme. However, these ideas are only suggestive in nature and students are
free to design exhibits based on other related ideas on the given sub-theme.
The given project is classified into three stages:

Stage I (Investigatory Project)

Eight Steps to a Prize-Winning Research-Based Project:
1. The first step is selecting the sub-theme for the project in the context of the main
theme given.
2. Sources of Information that give an idea on Projects: Books available to find
information or try various science-related sites on the internet.
3. Making a Plan:
 The purpose of the experiment.
 The variable or the things that they are going to change during the experiments.

VIII A Science - Term One 2025-2026

 5

 A detailed procedure/outline of how to conduct the experiment. Include the type

of experiment to be conducted.
 Make a timetable and allot sufficient time to all stages of work.
4. Making a Hypothesis: A hypothesis is a tentative theory that can be proved or
disproved through further investigation and analysis.
5. Selection of Guide and Consult: Discussion with your teacher/guide should be an
ongoing activity. Your guide is very important throughout the project.
6. Do the Experiments and Record Data: During each experiment, measure how much
the variable affects the system under study. This is considered raw data since it has not
been processed or interpreted yet. When raw data gets processed mathematically, for
example, it becomes results. Write the Observation and the recorded data on the left side
of the project.
7. Make your Conclusions: Using the trends in your experimental data and your
experimental observations, try to answer your original questions. Is your hypothesis
correct? Now is the time to put together what happened and assess the experiments you
did.
8. Cost feasibility: If your projects involve making a device then put up the estimated cost
of all the components required for the device. You must do a cost comparison with the
existing produced, if applicable. You should also state the source from which these
components can be obtained.
Stage II (Experimental Project)
Students will prepare a working model from the selected investigation project in stage I.
The following should be the elements in the experimental project:
1. Aim of the Experiment: An introductory statement of the reason for investigating the
topic of the project.
2. Materials Required: Write details about the materials used in the experiment.
3. Data/Observation: All Calculations, observations, tables or graphs should be recorded
on the left side of the project book.
4. Procedure: Write a brief procedure about the construction and working of the
experimental model.
5. Conclusions: The summary should reflect on the process and possibly state some
applications and extensions of the investigation.

Stage III (Exhibition) – Project Set-up and Display

Since you want to draw the attention of the spectators and judges, make it easy for them to
access your project and the results you have obtained.
The following should be the elements of the Project display:
1. Display: - Make the most of your space using a clear and concise display.
2. A Good Title: - Your title should be simple and must accurately represent your research.
3. Eye-Catching Display: - Make sure your display stands out. Use neat, Colourful
headings, charts and graphs to present your project.
4. Correctly Presented and Well-constructed: - Planning, Organising and presenting
concepts relevant to the theme.
Method of Writing the Investigatory Project:
The right side of the page – cover page with the topic can be Colourful

relations among the quantities using variables,
related history)
The left side of the page – Draw or stick relevant images/statistical tables/ observations/
calculations.
Tips on Writing a Synopsis
A synopsis gives the essence of the project in brief. Ideally, a synopsis should not exceed 250
words. Judges and other viewers should have a fairly accurate idea of the project from reading the
synopsis. The synopsis must focus on the current year’s research and give only minimal reference
to previous work as applicable.
The following should be elementary in your synopsis:
1. Purpose of the experiment:
(a) An introductory statement of the reason for investigating the topic of the project.
(b) A statement of the problem and/or the hypothesis being studied.
2. Procedure Used:
(a) Summary of the key points and an overview of how the investigation was conducted.
(b) A synopsis should only include procedures done by students. Work done by a mentor
or work done prior to student involvement must not be included.
3. Data:
(a) This section provides a key result that leads directly to the conclusions you have drawn.
(b) It should not give too many details about the result nor include tables or graphs.
4. Conclusions:
(a) Conclusions from the investigation should be described briefly.
(b) The summary paragraph reflects on the process and possibly states some applications and
extensions of the investigation.

GUIDELINES AND CRITERIA FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF THE TASKS
TASK 1: CASE STUDY
A case study is a sub-category of research design which investigates problems and offers
solutions. Case studies can range from academic research studies to corporate promotional tools
trying to sell an idea - their scope is quite vast.
For example, case studies may be used to examine court cases if you study Law, or a patient's
health history if you study Medicine, or about a fact related to a historical event or a geographical
feature of a region if you study Social Science.
Case studies involve a lot of storytelling. It has a main character, which is actually a problem that
is taken to solve. There is a system of 3 Acts in the story i.e., an introduction, a rising action, a
climax where transformation occurs, falling action, and a solution.
The rough formula to take up a case study is:
Problem (Act I): > Solution (Act II) > Result (Act III) > Conclusion.
Case Study Format
The case study format is as follows:
1. An Overview: Explanation of the topic selected for the case study and summary of the
results observed in a maximum of 2 sentences.
2. Background: Provide background information and the most relevant facts. Isolate the
issues.
3. Case Evaluation: Isolate the sections of the study that has to be focused on. In it, explain
why something is working or is not working.
4. Proposed Solutions: Offer realistic ways to solve what isn’t working or how to improve its
current condition.
5. Conclusion: Summarize the main points from the case evaluations and proposed solutions
or recommendations. Talk about the strategy that must be chosen. Explain why this choice
is the most appropriate.
6. Implementation: Explain how to put the strategy into action.
7. References: Mention all the books and sites referred for the case study.
Note: The length of the case study must be about 400-600 words only.
Objective:
1. To help identify, analyse and derive a solution to the problem.
2. To develop the research-based skills.
3. To learn to express the collected information creatively.

A concept map or conceptual diagram is a diagram that depicts suggested relationships

between concepts. In a concept map, each word or phrase connects to another, and links back to
the original idea, word, or phrase. The relationship between concepts can be articulated in linking
phrases such as "causes", "requires", "such as" or "contributes to". The technique
for visualizing the relationships among different concepts is called concept mapping.
Concept maps are a way to develop logical thinking and study skills by helping students connect
the relationship of individual ideas to form a larger whole. Concept maps are used by instructional
designers, engineers, technical writers, and others to organize and structure knowledge.
Objectives:
1. To acquire and reinforce the ability of comprehending a topic.
2. To develop logical thinking and study skills by revealing the relationship of individual ideas
forming a larger whole.
