 ...many different kinds of students join our team. Some only have an interest in media, or others in cheering. What is important is that they are having fun while working in an engineering environment. - Bharat Nain [more] |

1 thing is critical....
you must have a positive image. For example, at our school we are a very big football and basketball school and very little things get credit that are important. Our startegy was to throw our sucess in everybody else's face and quoting a leader from 2 years ago 'demand respect' the most productive mebers that we got on our team were not accquired by demanding repect. Make an opportunity to everyone and then work on showing them what first is really about. Middle schools are an excellent place to start. Remember, in the movie A field of Dreams, there was a famous quote: If you build it, they will come. This applies to a robotics team as well.
