Judges spend about 15 minutes with each of the ~10 projects assigned to them, discussing the hypothesis, experimental design, results, and conclusions with the students. The emphasis is on providing the students with an opportunity to discuss their work, and to provide encouragement as well as some constructive criticism. It's very inspiring to see how enthusiastic the students are about their projects and how much they have accomplished as independent thinkers, questioners, and experimenters and the students greatly appreciate the opportunity to talk about their work. This is also a terrific opportunity to give back to the taxpayers and get some visibility for Dartmouth students, faculty and programs. Thanks for any help you can give! Follow-UP!!
