Re: FIRST and grades
I've mentored several teams that monitor students' grades, and one that actively tutored students. This is a great way to pull in timid potential mentors: So many great potential mentors beg off of FRC because they believe themselves to be under-qualified, but mentoring in a subject they are confident in is a very gentle trojan horse. This has a very positive effect on students' grades... I'm not as convinced that monitoring has a positive effect.
