Re: Breaking the Three-Day Bias

Whenever I'm attempting to dispel any FIRST biases, I always shown them our 2003 animation entry. The 30-second clip does an effective job at showing (a) FIRST is not 'battlebots' (b) FIRST lasts a lifetime (c) You learn real life skills.

Those are typically the three messages I try to get across when I talk about FIRST. I've given a great many presentations since I've been involved with FIRST; what usually sticks with people the most is the six week time factor. I usually talk about that first before moving into the long-lasting positive effects of being involved in FIRST.
