Re: Robot in 3 Days 2015

I am convinced that---Without the 3 day robot build, most teams would have tried to build a catapult and the teams with the best mentors would have succeeded while many would have failed. Experience in the art of design is passed on in volume instead of one on one but it is passed on. After all, how many ways can one build a ball pick-up, a catapult or for that matter a wheel.
Creativity is taking what is learned in 3 days and applying tweaks to perfect a design.
