Re: Teacher Designs

For the students reading this i have one thing to add;
Mentors, whether or not engineers, teachers etc., have a lot on their mind. So take it easy when they get frazzled.
When my colleague and I hear 17 different robot designs, ideas and details we sit one on one or by group and sift through the ideas. At times, the two mentors take over the conversation and students sit idle listening. There is a reason for this:
1. We tend to foresee interferences
2. We have a lot more experience with the technical issues associated with systems
3. We love to K.I.S.S.<----keep what you're doing as simple and to the point as possible and within the means of your facilities.

Other than that, step aside and talk one on one and show that you have concerns. It helps if you try to develop your ideas/designs instead of blurting out a wiley coyote/ACME idea.

Hope this helps.
