Re: Look at the Big Picture
The big picture is that FIRST is a program to promote engineering and technology as career choices for high school students.
Think back to when you were starting out on a team. Remember the excitement you felt. Do you have that excitement on your team now? This is about getting students thinking and interested in career choices, about changing the way we collaborate with others.
Is this is going on now? Do you see that excitement?
Try running a team. You need to keep everyone happy. You need to attract talent onto the team and you need to keep your older students excited. Have an honest talk with your team leaders about what they have to do and why they do it. Ask them what their big picture is. Share with them what your big picture is. Is everyone on the same page?
Let's get the excitement back. How do we do that?
