---|
I am a grade 11 student attending Summerland Secondary in B.C.. I have attended CWSF twice and got bronze in both 2015 (Fredericton) and 2016 (Montreal). I am very thankful to have the opportunity to return to Fredericton. Science has always been one of my passions and I am excited to be able to share my work with other students and the public. I strongly encourage all students to take part in Science Fair as CWSF is an opportunity that is simply unique. Aside from science, I also enjoy playing basketball for multiple teams in my area, as well as spending time outdoors in the beautiful Okanagan Valley I call home. |
| Jacqueline Mansiere ‘Sensing’ Health Improvement: How Auditory Input Can Impact Our Health
Challenge: | Health | Category: | Senior | Region: | Central Okanagan | City: | Summerland, BC | School: | Summerland Secondary | Abstract: | Everyone knows that sound causes hearing loss, but what other health impacts could it cause? After research and my own experiment, I found that sound causes individuals to become stressed which leads to heart attacks, strokes, and other serious issues. What makes this more concerning is that these issues arise at conversational-level noises, and that even seemingly healthy people are being affected like everyone else. |
