Re: What First is missing.

IQ vs FLL is going to interesting to watch, with FLL being the firmly entrenched 800 lb gorilla. Convincing people to move away from the product they already have experience with is never an easy task.

If anything you are going to see school divisions pick and choose the programs they support due to previous investments in products and perceived return on their investments.

Example: Our school division which is just over 80,000 students now has FLL in most (all?) elementary schools, VRC in most (all?) middle and high schools, FTC in a number of high schools, and three FRC teams.

Educator's note: That is total division wide enrollment which includes over 60 elementary schools, 16 middle schools and two traditional schools, as well as 11 high schools,
