Abstract:
The work represents the author`s observations made during the twelve editions of the contest for high school students` projects in order to improve its organization and to increase the quality of projects. The idea of this contest was to develop to the students the interest for Science in general and for Physics in particular. Initially, the theoretical basis of our approach was founded on the concept of "learning by doing", which over the years has enriched and transformed into "learning by doing and researching". The supporting documents that are presented have been improved over the years and can be considered a useful product to stimulate the development of scientific skills of the students.
