We push for the students to start homework after school. From about 3:00 to 5:00 (mentors arrive around 5-6), students work on their assignments. Sometimes it works with the team acting like a giant super study group with everyone helping each other. However I noticed essays rarely are done in these sessions. I got this tip from team 27's handbook.
I think we will push harder this year with the homework being done before robotics. Frankly, I don't want a student operating a drill press while thinking about that history report due tomorrow.
