Int'l Elementz Fair

22 April 2025

The annual International Elementz Fair (formerly known as Elementz Science Research Conference and Exhibition) aims to encourage students to venture into the world of research and discovery. It is a platform for Upper Secondary and Junior College students to showcase their primary and secondary scientific research, and prototypes which can contribute to the betterment of society.

The 26th International Elementz Fair was featured as a key event in our 3-day ASRJC S.T.E.A.M. Conference which was held from 22th to 24th April 2025. The S.T.E.A.M. Conference aims to let students appreciate the integration of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics through talks, workshops and learning journeys. Below was the participating rules for the 26th International Elementz Fair.

Sharing of Project Materials from Gold Award Teams

We have compiled the project materials of the Gold award teams (from schools which have given permission during registration to share their school's projects after judging).

We hope that this sharing can give more students exposure to the research and prototyping projects that were done by their peers from other schools. Please refer to the link below for the project materials:

Our Achievements

Three ASRJC student alumni (Tan Yung Zhen, Justin Neo Boon Shuan, Ong Chee How; refer to picture below) collaborated with Prof Sow Chorng Haur of NUS (left most in the picture) to work on a research project titled “Artistic Transformation of In2O3 Nanowires via Focused Laser Painting” in 2019. The team won Silver award in the Singapore Science and Engineering Fair (SSEF) 2020 with their project.

After which, the team continued to push further to develop the work into a full paper, led by Dr Poh Eng Tuan of NUS (right most in the picture). The paper was published in the Journal of Materials Chemistry C and was featured on the cover page of the journal.

Congratulation to the team for the successful publication of the paper. We would also like to thank Prof Sow Chorng Haur and Dr Poh Eng Tuan for the time and effort in guiding and supporting our student alumni throughout the project.

STEM Academy Workshops

ASRJC conducted three STEM enrichment workshops for our students in 2023. The aim was to allow students to explore STEM beyond the curriculum, even if they are not studying the corresponding subject. ASRJC would like to share the lesson plans with your school.

1. Impossible Balance - Explore "Stability" through the making of "impossible structures"

2. The Hot and Cold of it - Design a thermal pack and explore the chemistry of it

3. The World of DNA - Explore DNA through DNA extraction

We hope that your school can also conduct the workshops for your students. The resources can be found in the following link: https://tinyurl.com/asrjcstemacademy2023
