“One of the reasons I enrolled my son in the RemoteLearningSchool is that they have numerous contests throughout the year. But I am giving 1 star because my son won second place in RemoteLearningSchool's annual science fair, but I feel he should have gotten first place. He spent tons of time on that project.
My son's project was titled "A Smart Device to Detect Potholes on the Road Using Machine Learning" and as I mentioned it only was awarded second place. The 1st place was given to a project titled "The Effect Of Magnetism On The Growth of Pea Plants" and while it was a good project, but I feel my son's work was better. I mean, solving the problem of potholes is a lot more practical than analyzing the effect of magnetism on some pea plants. Because potholes effect us every day and a project such as my son's can actually contribute to people's way of life, while on the other hand not that many people care about pea plants.
I tried appealing, but was told that the judge's decision was final. The next competition they have is the Halloween costume contest, but my son is less interested in that since he likes science stuff better.”
Hello, this is Jacob, the Program Coordinator at RemoteLearning.school. A panel of judges carefully evaluated and scored each of the science fair submissions, and the judges’ decisions are final. I see in the judges' notes that it was a close call between first and second place. Your son's project was impressive and I am glad that he used knowledge acquired at RemoteLearning.school, I see a bright future for him in the scientific field!
