The Stickiest Award

“The Amazing Spiderman”
by Emma Choi, Sam Park, Youngseo Hwang, and Jisung Jang

This project really felt like Spider-Man came to life. The web design and all the strings made it look super realistic and fun. Also, everything looked very detailed and creative, so we couldn’t stop looking at it. Definitely sticky in both science and attention!

The Most Tragic

“Fluid Resistance”
by Eric Park, Logan Choi, and Chloe Lee

The “Fluid Resistance” board was the most tragic because if the ocean was honey instead, the Titanic would’ve been saved. Oh, what treachery! To add insult to injury, the students even made a paper model of the sinking Titanic ship! Oh, woe is me!

Most Questionable Motive

“Preventing Fake Blood”
by Minju Jung, Joon Suh, and Euijin Cho

This project raised some serious questions regarding the students’ motivation. Are they planning to commit a serious crime? Why would they be concerned about non-blood substances showing up as blood in crime scenes?

Most Anatomically Correct

“Blood Sugar”

by Davit Um and Sua Cho

This project stood out for its clear focus on the human body and its functions. The use of a life-sized human model with detailed representations of the circulatory system made the presentation visually engaging and easy to understand. In addition, students were able to participate by testing their own blood sugar levels using a simple finger-prick test and a glucose meter, which added a realistic and interactive element to the project. If you thought it was an actual cadaver, you’re not alone!

The Sparkliest

“Ocean Acidification”

by Bella Kim, Madeline Jung, and Molly Kim

This project featured the sparkliest board, decorated with glitter and sparkling stickers. In line with the ocean theme, the board included various toy sea animals, such as fish and octopus figures, carefully placed around it.

Most Unfriendly for Lactose-Intolerant Folks

“Milk Plastic”

by Yubin Lee, Jiho Choi, Seungli Namgung, and Taeyon Choi

This presentation was the most unfriendly for lactose-intolerant people because it used milk to make plastic. People who are lactose intolerant cannot handle milk, so this topic might make them feel uncomfortable. The board did not explain why they could not have chosen lactose-free milk. Lactose intolerant people who came in proximity to this project claimed they felt gassy just from looking at it.
