International Research Paper of Stem
Contest (IRPSC)
Preface
It is a sad reality that many students end their math and science studies simply by reading textbooks and solving problems.
The purpose of this research journal is to inform students of the correct way to study mathematics and science by sharing how they can apply and use the material taught in schools. We hope many students will learn that math and science are not boring and difficult subjects, but they are fun and useful and can be helpful in many fields.
