Long post, I know, but to sum it all up, power house teams are a resource, not an enemy. |

The only thing I am learning from this thread is the difference between who is arrogant enough to objectify their own interpretations and who is wise enough to question their own interpretations. |

In an education culture that hinges on having the perfect grades and perfect SAT scores to get into the perfect colleges, I enjoy providing an environment where students are encouraged to test their own hypothesis, challenge their assumptions, and regularly fail. |

We appreciate the time/effort of everyone who contributes to Chief Delphi... hopefully, someday soon we'll be experienced/seasoned enough to contribute advice ourselves... |

Part of the magic of FIRST is the interaction between different teams- and that becomes clear as day as the clock starts ticking. |

If this was really about changing the culture, FIRST would be on Will.I.Am's website. |

Can you believe we have 8 FRC teams in Arkansas this year??? Not quite Michigan, but... |

Why assume a full trophy case and spreading the message of FIRST (mentoring rookies) are mutually exclusive? Team 16 supported 6 rookies this season and earned 5 banners - I am equally proud of both. |

Success isn't from winning nationals but from improving as a person or as team. Putting the minds together in order to get the job done is success. |

I would be kinda creeped out if I was one of the "famous" FIRST people. Why? Because no one is any different than anyone else in my eyes. Granted, some people stand out more, but that is because the other people might not have gotten a chance yet to shine. |

Regardless on how you feel about any team--respect should be paramount. |

If I'm going to mentor someone, I'm going to be involved in their life as a positive force. |

Another Freshman: "Because we don't know what we're doing!"
Veteran Student: "This is why we can't have nice things." |

The practical experience that students learn by working with the mentors on a real life problem -- with real life constraints -- helps produce people who are good at those professions. |

This 6 weeks of work, sweat, thinking, designing, building, talking, discussing, turning wrenches, wiring, programming, drawing on chalk boards, eating pizza, drinking mountain dew, with the students - is what the FIRST experience is really about. |

As I told my friend Joe Johnson, just because you aren't around as much doesn't mean that you can just close the book on this chapter, instead - just keep a book marker in this place, so you can remember how to find your way back home - when the time is right.

The only shame is if you are too proud to ask for help and to learn. |

There is no shame in admitting someone is better than you at something doesn't make them a better person just means they have skill you haven't figured out yet. The only shame is if you are too proud to ask for help and to learn. |

Winning the robot part of the competition is not about learning or doing unneccesary work. It works just like "winning" in industry. |

You are given a goal with some simple restrictions. That's it. No one really cares how you get it done, just the fact that you get it done. |
