Re: FRC Class Curriculum Help

I'd like to affirm Nicholsjj: Getting buy-in from the people who set the curriculum is the most difficult part. You have to meet whatever state standards are in existence for math and science and squeeze in the robotics program to describe as many points of contact as possible. A number of states have adapted something called "A through G," a set of standards that make something like a for-credit FRC-style building program difficult to fit into. If the class is offered as an elective, the honors and college-prep students will be reluctant to take the class: An "A" will pull down their gpa (as unlikely as it sounds). Keep asking the questions!
