Pose a Question
Before you send a question, check out the questions and answers from other students. Remember that you are asking scientists about their work, an idea or technique that can't be tracked down in your library or what it is like to be a scientist. Make your question very specific because the scientists are only allowed two paragraphs for their answer. You might want to "try out" your question on your friends, teachers and parents to see if they "get" what you are asking. Writing a clear question can be hard work!
