School students participating in CITI-SENSE air quality research won a certificate of excellence in a regional research-fair in Haifa, Israel.
The fair took place on 05 May at the National Science Museum in Haifa, Israel. It presented 93 works of students, including two research works conducted as part of CITI-SENSE’s collaboration with schools in the district and the “youth to adulthood” team. The first work by “Israelia” school students examined the difference in air quality between a classroom and the teachers’ room in the school. The second work, by students from “Tel Chai” school, examined differences in air quality between the school yard and the classroom. In both cases the students found that the air quality in the classroom was better than the air quality in the compared location. The students presented the rational for the research with great confidence and their hypothesis, methods, findings and conclusions left a strong and positive impression. The grand finale for the wonderful fair was the announcement at the end of the day that the group of students from “Tel-Chai” school has won a certificate of excellence for their work on this relevant and important topic. Congratulations!
