In this edition of the Festival XL Regional Youth Science held since 1968 by the Venezuelan Association for the Advancement of Science (Asovac-Táchira), with the purpose of arousing interest in children and adolescents in various areas of scientific and technological exhibits this Youth work week tachirenses basic education and diversified facilities Anthropological Museum of Táchira, showing greater motivation this year for the social sciences, shifting the area of \u200b\u200bLife Sciences in previous years dominated scientific projects. This

Youth Science Festival takes place during the week of Visibility and Popularization of Science, Technology and Educational Environment which takes place from 23 June to Friday 27 November. Asovac-Táchira integrates the organizing committee of these activities and the Museo del Táchira, as an initiative of the Ministry of Popular Power for Science and Technology (MPPCT) and the Foundation for the Advancement of Science and Technology of Táchira (FUNDACITE) .

Therefore, Mery Moncada, Program Coordinator Youth Festival Cienc Asovac ai-Táchira, said in the State openness and participation to make scientific and technological research, "This year there was an increased interest in the area of \u200b\u200bSocial Sciences, second technology jobs and the least amount of work is of Bioscience, taking into account that in previous years was a branch that was in first place."

Also, this week for the Popularization of Science in states other than scientific and technological projects for students, organized cultural activities such as theatrical performances, traditional dance and music, complemented by workshops, forums and lectures by teachers academics and researchers of Táchira.

innovative Participants in the Youth Science Festival presented forty scientific papers and technology, such as Montessori schools, Christ the King, Subway, Cervantes, Our Lady of Consolation, and also public institutions like Liceo Antonio José de Sucre Bolivarian, Las Americas Rubio's population, the Liceo Militar Jauregui La Grita.

also found jobs in the Bolivarian High School "Constantine Emilio Guerrero of San Cristobal, where girls as Bella Ortiz, Alba Moreno, Yenny Rosales and Alfonso Leidy, all fifth-year trainees showed their diverse project based on the "aerodynamic car design, pollution, health and recreation of the people."

For these students the goal of building the car aerodynamic blood drive, as Bella Ortiz said, "is to restore the values \u200b\u200bof the past, recalling the old carriages to transport, and also recreation and fitness of any person, preventing air and noise pollution because it has a horn that does not bother minimum and cause noise, no motor, and therefore not emit gases that pollute. " Bella

These students required the use of theories and concepts of the disciplines Physics and Mathematics, so the student Alba Moreno, said that "it required a flow chart to graph algorithms, and the magnitudes of speed, and it was determined that the circular shape of the car, and plastic in back so do not cut the fluid lines of the wind and can prevent loss of speed. "

Alyelebe, that was the name assigned to the vehicle resulting from scientific work of these students, who built in just one month, starting with the design of the plane, and then constructed and subjected to various tests rating their performance, using materials and bicycle parts, in some cases new and used that collected as other nuts, and finally paint all the parts.

Awards for outstanding
This project and the other 39 exposed at the Festival of Asovac, are supervised by a qualified jury is composed of researchers and academics, where the directors of projects for 10 minutes to go to the jury expressing both the methodology, practice and results of scientific work, and from there the judges questions and make suggestions to students.

Moncada, Coordinator Youth Science Festival, said: "Judges take into account creativity, innovation, methodology, approach and performance objectives that are well supported and argued." Since the goal is to select only four works of the forties presented and take them to the National Youth Festival of Science, which would be a delegation of eight students accompanied by two teachers institutions.

The results will be published on the closing day of the week Science, Friday, June 27, so that the students have created the streamlined car, Alyelebe, are on the lookout, as Bella Ortiz said that if they participate at the national level, "we would try to carry the same message of non-pollution and recreation to rescue many activities that have forgotten, and represent our state the best way. "

Finally, the interest of young students Táchira state is lifted by the participation in work have a significant and varied scientific and technological content, increasing the innovative capacity of adolescents and the desire for research, as indicated Moncada "This Festival is a tradition that allows all young people to present research, and today the public are children who were forty years ago."
