VEX EDR or Lego EV3 for high school robotics elective?

[Sperkowsky]

Honestly I wouldn't go lego just because even if the students are learning it will turn them off. (I'm lived most of life in Queens) what I think a lot of people here don't realize Is the odd maturity of NYC kids. They are Street smart and good kids (most of the time) but a lot of them could care less about whether school property breaks). I think tetrix Is the better option because of the fact that you do your own wiring (high school students can handle it and it's an actual skill)

Though have you considered Ftc? Next year my friend told me they are using an android interface and I feel it's hard enough that High school students won't look at it and laugh but easy enough that the less motivated students can learn.

I'm no expert but I understand NYC teens because I was one.
