Re: Strategy - Your method??
right. What I'm looking for is HOW teams decide what they want to be able to build. The method used on our team is pretty much this: The mentors (FIRST veterans who are now college students) are home for break and go to a kickoff event. We watch it on TV because there is no event close by. Our mentors talk about the game and the robot on the trip home and when we meet on the Monday after kickoff they tell us what they think, it makes sense to us so we build it. This year I am going to try to involve the students more in the design/decision process. I am looking for ways to analyze the game and come up with strategies.
thanks.
