On behalf of FIRST Team 696, I am proud to release our very first
Build Season Blog.
This year, we decided to track our progress in a more concrete manner. This blog allowed us to keep our friends and family up to date with lab proceedings, provide a means of holding members accountable for their team roles, collaborate and share findings with other teams, and pinpoint which processes we can improve in the future.
Most of these blogs were written by a rookie "reporter", with a few written by David Black or I, in his absence. We hope to improve on this process next year to provide a more cohesive reporting style.
We are excited to finally be able to share this with the FRC community!
The urge to compete tends to drive teams to hold the ideas close during the competition season, but the urge to contribute means they get publicized afterwards. - Alan Anderson [more]
