I feel that the students respect all the adult mentors of our team. While we often tease and joke around with them, if it comes to getting something done, we listen.

As part of the leadership body this year, I did feel that sometimes the adults would talk down to us or push our ideas to the side but that is something that we need to work on between both mentors and students.

To mentors-make sure your students are actively involved in decision process because they like to know whats going on and often have a different, interesting, perspectives. For example, this year we had 4 student leaders part of the main leadership body which was also made up of parents, engineers and teachers.

Students- Remember you mentors have lives outside robotics (even if you do not) and understand that they can't do everything and they're not perfect.
