Re: Student / Mentor, desgn/build Poll

After a bit of thinking, I chose the "engineer-designed/student-built" option. Personally, I learn a whole lot better by understanding the physics behind something, and then, after having a thorough grasp of the concepts, getting hands-on and building something based off a design.

Say I was in the engineer-designed/student-built environment - I think I'd still find myself asking "How does such-and-such work?" while building the robot, I wouldn't just build for the sake of building.
