| 2012 guidelines for picking exhibits to judge hide
The table below shows the status of all the entries we’ve received so far. We expect to update it every couple of days, as we receive new entries online or paperwork in the mail. You can use it to pick the exhibits you’d like to judge, before you come to the Fair. Things to consider:
|
|
Key to the table columns hide Exh.# /Div. That's "Exhibit number or Division". The divisions are Junior Biological science (JB), Junior Physical (JP), Junior Teams (JT), Senior Biological (SB), and Senior Physical (SP). An exhibit number is just the division followed by a 2-digit serial number, like JT99. (Senior team exhibit numbers include a ‘T’, for example SBT99. Unlike the junior teams, they aren’t in a separate division.)
At first this column displays only the exhibit’s division. In the last week before the Fair, we assign exhibit numbers to the Accepted entries; by Wednesday or Thursday before the Fair, each exhibit will have its number. Each exhibit’s number is unique; it appears on the exhibit table and exhibit maps, on the score sheets (EISEF judging) and Green Sheets (sponsored award judging).
Status Accepted: You can pick this exhibit to judge on Fair Day. Everything about the entry is in order; we’ll be ready for the student at Student Registration in Lindale Mall at 8:00 AM on March 17, 2012.
Pending: We received the student’s online entry; now we’re waiting to receive the entry’s signed paperwork. Once we receive the paperwork, we’ll the change the entry’s status to Accepted.
Disqualified: The student broke the rules and won’t be permitted to register or exhibit at the Fair. You shouldn’t pick this exhibit to judge.
Dropped: The student submitted the entry, then decided not to attend this year’s EISEF. You shouldn’t pick this exhibit to judge.
Student Name(s) As you might expect, the name(s) of the student(s) who conducted the experiment and who you will interview.
Project Title and Description These tell what the project is about, in the student’s own words. The title will appear on the exhibit, in the handouts you’ll receive on Fair Day, and elsewhere; it can be terse and uninformative. The description gives more detail; in the table, it appears below the title, in italics. Use both to help you pick projects you want to judge.
Adult Sponsor The teacher or other adult who guided the student(s) in conducting the experiment and preparing the exhibit.
School and City The student’s school and its location.
