Re: What is FIRST really about?????

To me, FIRST is about having students realize that there IS an answer to the age old high school question: "when are we ever going to use this crap?"

I think that if most high schoolers knew the answer to that question they would feel much more motivated in school, learn more, and would be less likely to drop out and more likely to go to college.
