"Keeping up" is a relative term, best held in the eyes of the beholder. Building two robots to be a competitive program may be a requirement for some of the thousands of teams in areas that have events not in Minnesota. Maybe they want to be competitive on a level outside of their state? Maybe they define keeping up as consistently making it to eliminations? Maybe they define it as their mentors not needing to go on blood pressure medication mid season? I don't know, sounds like a good survey question.
Mostly, however, I find that once the students start building a robotics project, they are too busy learning for me to teach. - dtengineering [more]
