To Daniel...let me say first that you are articulate and thoughtful, two of the characteristics that make you such a good writer. I see in my own students a lot of what you show by your writing: intelligence, creativity and the ability to do a LOT more than many adults believe they can. I continue to be amazed by kids' accomplishments. You are correct when you give FIRST (and all the people who work within FIRST) a lot of credit. I personally like to see more student involvement, but that is a personal choice, and it needs to be left to the teams to decide within their partnerships. Dean has made it clear that however the tasks are completed, they are all appropriate.

I don't think Daniel or Frank are atypical or unusual students at all, but they do represent the best among the student population that I'm accustomed to working with. There are a lot more kids like Daniel than some here seem to realize. I'd like to see all our kids get the chance to prove that.
