Re: Share or not to share CA submissions
This was my first year mentoring our team's Chairman's Award committee. It was a HUGE amount of work. I wasn't sure what a winning entry should look like. We had some minor difficulties with the electronic process (we tried converting it from the latest version of Word to the version that was required and discovered that it doesn't keep compressed image files so the file was huge and had to be re-done).
I would like to know what the other entries looked like that we "competed" against (I don't even know what other teams submitted entries at our regional). I'd also like to see the entries shown on the video screens at the Regionals, like the animation awards entries were, or made available for viewing at the regional somewhere. Although we did not win in our regional, we accomplished a lot just by going through the process. I would have liked to have been able to make a video of the presentation and interview process (we had three students make the presentation so I wasn't in the room) so we could critique it for next year. I wish there was time to actually meet with the judges afterwards to get more feedback - I know that's hard to do but we received two sentences of feedback and that's not much to go on for bringing the team to the level we want it to be at. I would like to see the winners' entries posted on the FIRST web site so we can emulate what they are doing that makes them worthy of winning this prestigious award! |

One of the best ways to see the competing apps is to get the ball rolling and post yours here , hopefully others will follow. judge feedback from our last year's chairman's app IMO, delphi could post the winner's entries with the winner's cooperation. |

Unless, Brandon, you want to have a team organization subfolder where people can upload their chairman apps? |

Additionally, thanks again to Chief Delphi for providing a venue for all these issues. I just started posting about a month ago and never imaged how wonderful it would be to have this site for all my questions and frustrations. The learning curve is steep... |

Re: Share or not to share CA submissions
When we win an award, we make sure to get the "words" the emcee announced.
I posted the transcript of our winning the chairman's award. Hope others will too in Delphi's White Papers, team organization, chairman's award subcategory link |

Re: Share or not to share CA submissions
I think winners should share their CA submissions. It lets everyone else know exactly why that team is so great.
Believe me, after being on Buzz #175 in high school I know how ambiguous the chairman's award is. We tried everything to win that award: FIRST aid, lego league, community service, the BIG E.... We held a competition at the Big E, (it's like a town fair but a million people go, held in Sprinfield, MA). We spread the FIRST message to 100 thousand people that never heard of FIRST. Hamilton Sundstrand Space Systems spent a HUGE amount of money to pull of the event. Did we win CA that year? Nope. I think that in the end FIRST just gave it to Buzz because we had literally done everything and they were fearful of us just getting burned out and stop trying. |
