If interested in writing up your work - examples of student papers

For those students who take on science research, a key part of the process is to write up results and share with the science community by publishing your work. For high school students, this is entirely possible and should be seriously considered. But there is an issue with technical science writing - most high school students, and many teachers for that matter, do not have extensive, if any, real experience with technical writing along the lines of what a professional would publish in a journal.

Check out good examples of student papers, almost all of which were submitted to science contest at the state or national level (and almost all had some sort of state or national recognition). It is good practice to use others' work as models and guides to understand the style and formatting for this type of writing, especially if you have an interest in submitting to a local science fair or a state or national contest.
