Re: When do mentors go too far?

Our team has 11 students and about 11 mentors. We share the work pretty equally, actually. The students design things, the mentors tell us if what we've come up with is possible and help us get it done. They step in if we can't do something, but if we can do it on our own, they let us. Still, it's mostly a partnership between kids and adults. I like it this way, especially since we're a rookie team and most of the kids don't know a whole lot yet(me included).

Are any other young teams set up this way?
