Re: Girls on Teams

The girls on my team have varying positions in programming, publicity, animation, building the actual robot. Basically there is at least 1 or 2 girls in each of the committees

Re: Girls on Teams

Three of the five girls we have this year are on electronics, the other two do mechanical. They are all very talented and eager to learn. Having girls on the team definitely spices up the atmosphere.

Re: Girls on Teams

This year MOE has I think 9 girls, a new record for us. The girls all have very important roles on the team, one of them Melissa fox(Mclissa) is head of the pneumatics team, others are on our drive train team, web and animation teams, programing and electrical also, I think that there is a girl on each of our sub teams this year. I think it is great to have girls on the team, and thats not just because I am a guy and enjoy the company of girls. The girls have given us new and fresh ideas and have helped keep some of us guys in check during some of the meetings.

I was quite mollified when I saw this topic here at ChiefDeliphi. It interested me to see the roles of girls on other teams, as I have always wondered, Are the girls on the other teams doing the same things as me?

My name is Joy, and I am a fifteen-year-old sophomore at my school. I am one of the few rookies on the team this year, this being my first year. I've been interested in Robotics since I-don't-know-when, because my dad is an engineer and I've been exposed to the atmosphere for a fairly long time. I love electronics, and hence I am one of the two electronics apprentices. The other apprentice is a freshman, of the male gender. XD

There are 22 students who have signed up to be on the team, 15 of whom are active. And of those 15, 5 of us are girls: 1 freshman, 1 sophomore (me), 2 juniors, and 1 senior. Diverse, no? What's more, is that 1 junior and the senior girls have been members for more than a year. They are also council members, secretary and treasurer. Not much, you might say. But I say that their being on the council made me want to join even more.

Like I said, I am an electronics apprentice. This means that I'm learning on how to work on the electronics, how things work, and why. I love it! It's just one of the things that I love, I suppose. I am also on the chassis team, helping to build the robot.

Relationships between the girls and the guys here are quite easy-going, and everyone works great with anyone else. However, (yes folks, however) there are times when I myself feel that the guys think they know more. But of course, this might be due to the fact that I'm just a rookie. -__-; So really, I can't speak.

I must say, though, that many people find it hard to believe that I am on the Robotics team in the first place. This is because my other love is Art & Theater, which by the way, is no easy task, either. Still, the jump from Theater to Robotics is still pretty big, and balancing the two would be yet another wall to scale. Yes, with the Spring Musical coming up as well, this will be a pretty interesting season.

Ciao,
~Joy
Girl you awesome! This is my first year too, and I am a dancer as well. I work on the "frame and drive train" team as well as an arm team. It's so much fun and I understand that whole balance issue. Also, the guys around our team think they know more than we girls (which is mostly true in my case, but hey I'm learning!) but most of them don't know enough to have "security under their belts." Our GREAT president does, this being his fourth year, and he is the one teaching me. Him and ArmoredFairy698 (sp?) are my tutors this year--not to mention my two best friends. I was on the team "unofficially" last year, and I know it's tough. Balancing is hard, especially with two opposite ended spectrums, but hang in there! Robotics is so much fun and I'm glad I joined! That probablly had nothing to do with what you were saying, but I thought I'd add my two cents...

Re: Girls on Teams

We have 30 students on our team. 4 of the 30 our girls. 3 of the 4 are on the promotions team and do things that involve buying supplies, working the website, chairmans award woodies flowers award etc. The other girl is actually on the electronics team and is one of the best workers. She is also our lead strategist.

Re: Girls on Teams

Well, being an all girls school, Elmwood's team is 100% female. However, all of our mentors are guys/men.

The information you were actually looking for: We've got a team of 25 girls, and 6 mentors.

Re: Girls on Teams

We have seven girls on a team of thirty. Our girls are very active and participate on each of our four committees. Three of these girls are student managers for the team. They are AMAZING!!!! They do so much for the team. However, we find it very surprising that only 23% of our team is female. Thus it would be quite nice if we could get more girls to participate. We have girls building, working with our logo and public relations as well as helping wherever they can. It brings an unusal, but much needed balance to the team. So, girls, everywhere! get involved!! And for those that are, kudos and keep keepin' it real...

Re: Girls on Teams

on 108 we have about, 10-15 girls on the team. there are about 40 people on our team. most of the other girls, actually, all the other girls are on PR or Graphics or animations or something like that. i'm on mechanical. i beleive that there is one other girl.im basically the only girl that works. but, the other girls on the team do do amazing work. and im proud that they do what they do. the fact that about, half of them show up to the meetings is disappointing. but, the ones that do, are good at what they do.

Talking Re: Girls on Teams

i am the only girl on my team ; i would say that i pretty much get along with all of them . our team is only made up of 7 and about 4 mentors. being a rookie team we are all kinda lost on this. The guys just wanna build and play and have fun they dont like doing any of the hard work. So most of it falls on me , though if i needed one of them to do something they would in a heartbeat

Re: Girls on Teams

WBI has 6 girls on the 26 person tech team as well as 5 out of 22 on IT and all three of our PR members. Also 5 of our 18 mentors our female. Most of the girls on our team give everything they've got. The problem on our team is not that the girls are intimidated by the guys but dealing with the comments the guys make about our being female.

Cool Re: Girls on Teams

Personally, I think teams with alot of girls are lucky.... More brains! No offense to all us guys, but you have to admit the girls do tend to think about things before they do them, unlike most of us guys... Our team only has 4, 3 white girls and one crazy PR girl we call "Isha", my conterpart during the competition. (Our team has two mascots, since I can no longer be the Lego Maniac I'm now the King Jester & she claimed the other side of the throne.) Seriously though, the girls on the New England teams seem braver than the guys and I wouldn't be suprised. Girls need to have a voice on a team. It lets you see things from all aspects. Well, enough said... does anybody know any of the teams in the Arizona Regional this year? My team's going there this year and it would be nice to meet some new people, not from the east coast.
