Re: Homework V.S Robotics
Used to do high school & college homework while riding the bus or carpooling. Save time, save a tree.

Ditto the comments about turning off tv & other distractions. Just like a computer running too many programs/apps at once, it slows down productivity while the survival part of your brain is continually monitoring the background noises.

Eliminate unecessary tasks.

Since starting this team with my kid & her friends, I've reduced household chores to a minimum. Who cares if there are new life forms developing in the refrigerator or in the jungle that used to my yard, anyway?

Seriously, thanks for posting to this thread. As a non-school affliliated team, myself & the other adults have lamented the fact that we can't utilize school time for robotics and see it as a real challenge for the team to learn & do everything required of a FRC team.
