Thanks again,

Mr. B.

Mr. B, do you have any write-ups on your team's awesome inventory system? If your team ever writes a white paper or an A3 report on that, can you post that somewhere in Chief Delphi and let us know it exists? Developing and implementing an inventory system that is as organized, visual, and detailed as your team's system could be a great project for new and advanced students.

You should look into Team 1717's curriculum. They have a full 4-year education plan which culminates in FRC for the seniors.

A great example of integrating FIRST within the actual school's academics.

Why not start an off-season project?

We always meet in the end of summer/early fall and work on a robotics project. We use this time to try out new things, and to teach our new students about building a robot. I would say it works. We started with a half new team this year, and they learned a lot.

This year, we started a t-shirt launcher robot. We didn't finish it, but we will continue that project this fall.

If you have the spare parts, then why not come up with something fun? Nothing teaches you how to build a robot, than to build a robot.
