Team Essay- Help?
 
Today I'm in my writing class when our team mentor calls me up over my teacher's phone, asking me to write the team essay that's due tonight. He sent me the email he received but it didn't give me a location to send the essay to. Anyone know what I'm talking about and am I just blind? I'm getting a little worried and can't find anything on it.

The team leader will have to put them in TIMS.

The Team Essay (aka Judge's Page) is submitted via TIMS. Only the team leader or alternate can do this submission. Here's the content:
FIRST judges use essays to a sense of the thinking a team has put into their efforts.

The Team Essay questions include:

* Team History: Describe the history of your team such as how your team was started, who started it, how it has grown over time.
* Team Goals: List and describe the goals the team are trying to achieve this year.
* Team's FIRST Impact: Describe the impact FIRST has had on the team and the team members.
* Community Description: Describe how the team is effected and/or interacts with the community.
* Team Strengths: Describe the strenghts of the team such as teamwork, knowledge of certain systems, etc.
* Most Significant Challenge Overcome: Describe the most significant challenge the team has had to overcome this year.
* Robot and Game Strategy: Describe the teams strategy in designing the robot and competing at events.
* Most Competitive for Which Awards: Name the award(s) for which you believe the team is most competitive.
* Funding Sources: Describe the funding sources for the team and how they were engaged.
* Public Awareness: Describe how aware the public is about the team and how aware the team is about the public's perception of it.

Note: All information is optional. However, you will stand a better chance at impressing the judges if you fill in all the information.
Each of the above 10 items have a 255 character limit.

Be aware that the page has the 15-minute time-out where you can lose everything you've typed unless you save it periodically. At the bottom of the page is a session timer and the "Finished" button. Don't lose track of time or you'll need to re-enter the text. It hurts...I know.:rolleyes:
