Do you guys have any tips for how to remain motivated on extracurriculars, especially when school gets busy or you have other commitments? I find it hard to prioritize my extracurriculars and even harder to get the motivation to begin work on them, as I don't have too much direction with them.

Hi everyone, I'm a rising 9th grader interested in science fair! I was just wondering for Science Fair, I see a lot of people making innovations or new devices with like all these fancy things (servos, motors). If this is an easier path to go, how do you come up with the idea and even get the resources to make and test such a device and actually get it to work - it seems difficult and quite challenging to engineer something. On the other hand, I see less "studies" in science fairs, where for example, someone finds a new chemical and uses it to cure a certain ailment. Another note: I see a lot of computer or coding based projects like Rishab's and wonder how they actually can be used to apply to science. Do you use data and then generate predictions or something else? Thanks anyone for helping me!

R is basically a required skill for statisticians and researcher's alike. But getting started with R is definitely not easy. This beginner guide (the R-vignette-session upload) should be helpful to use before you try to follow any other tutorials as it approaches R from a non-programming perspective. This was created by Yu Han who gave me permission to upload the document. Once you're ready to start learning, I'd recommend these tutorials: https://github.com/matloff/fasteR https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvKETZ6kr9Q&ab_channel=DynamicDataScript
