Spaceship Earth
(projects could be required to show the effects of a "closed loop" ecology... helping them to realize that everything they do affects someone else. Giving a "community" awareness.)

You mean a general theme and then college students do their projects from it? Okay.
- female inventors and scientists
- science in the home
- the impact of agribusiness
- discoveries that came out of MIT
- our planet earth
- gravity
- what do we NOT know? (see recent issue of Wired) wow
- forensic sciences of all kind
- global warming
- it's a no-brainer (about brain stuff)
- the changing seasons (weather, ecology, trees, more)
- things are not what they seem (evolution, transmutation, chemical changes, etc)
- from here to eternity (cosmos)
- the fourth dimension (time, physics, perception, etc)
- great scientists we never hear about (second rail folks)
- living scientists
- the sporting life (the relationship between sports and science e.g. scuba diving related to marinwe biology; rappelling related to archelogogical digs)
- winged migration (all things birds)
- pick one movie and then say it has to derive from that .... something like a documentary about toxic waste or even a fiction drama with a lot of possible derivative materials
- do you have speed?
- two and two makes five (everything in science tht is amazing or at first seems counterintuitive)
- the science professions
- demonstrating science (have them prepare dioramas or powerpoint shows etc etc)
How many do you need? LOL
Have fun!

Darwin Day is Feb 13th, I think - if that's Science Week, evolution as a theme would work well. You can tie all subjects into that, as all of them confirm evolution in some way.
