Re: FRC as a credit bearing course

OK,
This is what I received from our teacher as an outline for mandatory Monday meetings.

The subteam reference is to be a 1:45 meeting as sub team with those mentors to train and discuss items needed for the build season. i.e. electrical will teach stripping technique and soldering of various electrical terminals and wires.
Team building will include VEX/FTC robot building as well as student to student peer interaction. Community outreach is planning and preparing for any outreach events that might occur including holiday food drives, senior lawn cleanup, demos, FLL etc. We are also planning other team building events and leadership training that are still being worked out. This is in flux right now as we are trying to respond to comments and expectations expressed by our students during post mortem meetings two weeks ago.

Here is a basic outline of the semester:
Week 1 Orientation (Aug 25)
Week 2 Cookout
Week 3 Subteam presentations/VEX kit sorting
Week 4 In subteams/VEX orientation
Week 5 In subteams/team building/community outreach
Week 6 In subteams/team building/community outreach
Week 7 In subteams/team building/community outreach
Week 8 In subteams/team building/community outreach
Week 9 In subteams/team building/community outreach
Week 10 In subteams/team building/community outreach
Week 11 In subteams/team building/community outreach
Week 12 In subteams/VEX practice
Week 13 In subteams/VEX class competition
Week 14 Final subteams/team building/leadup to kickoff
