Re: paper: FIRST programs matched to state education standards
Both PA & DE Standards are matched to FIRST programs. The "updated for 07-08" versions include the FTC logo, updated referencing to the web, standards adjustments, and all four FIRST programs (JFLL, FLL, FTC, FRC). If you need an "in" with the school, staff, admin, or board, this just may be the way to start a conversation. If you're not from PA or DE these can stil help (ask Andy Baker about the workforce development connection in Indiana). If you have an educator in your state that would like to create something similar for your purposes, I'd be glad to assist in the process.

Happy Holidays and Namaste...
