Transcript: Kamen, Dean. "Vision and Mission" 1/13/15 www.usfirst.org Bench,Brenda; Collver,Michel; Kasanda,Mary., 1/12/15cursa.ihmc.us Fresques, Linda. 10/15/14, 1/9/15newscenter.nmsu.edu Kids improved on...... One of the goals of FIRST is to put kids with there own age. FIRST Robotics By: Haley A. May Is it motivating? "Team work: 95% Gracious professionalism: 83% Science and Technology: 89% Self confidence: 89% Motivation to do well in school: 70%" (Center for Youth and Communities, Brandies University) Answer: Most definitely YES! Most people said this about robotics........ * they had a chance at a leadership role * had big responsibilities * made important decisions * had fun (Center for Youth and Communities, Brandies University) Am I Actually Going to Help? How do they do that? So now we know that is not the case so go have fun! Works Cited: Robotics has improved students educational motivation, self- esteem, and is lots of fun. Is it what you think it is? Paraphrase: "To transform our culture by creating a world where science and technology are celebrated and where young people dream of becoming science and technology leaders." -Dean Kamen, Founder Robotics, More Than Robots? Most students don't do robotics because they don't know if they are actually going to be able to help. Lets find out if that would be the case. Robotics, More Than Robots? Am I Actually Going To Help? YES!!!!!! "89% said they felt like they had big responsibilities. 76% said they had a shot at a leadership role. 74% said they made important decisions. 96% said they had fun. " ( Center for Youth and Communities, Brandies University) Jobs and Percents: Some people don't do robotics because they don't know if they will help Team work Gracious professionalism Science and Technology Self confidence Motivation to do well in school (Center for Youth and Communities, Brandies University) Is it what you think it is? People think robotics is just a nerd thing. But really its not. Here are some things that it really is. * team spirit *cheering * acceleration (Brenda Branch, Michel Collver, and Mary Kasanda) Main Idea: "They do this by having four different programs. Those programs are FLLjr., FLL, FTC, and FRC. So that way kids are separated by grades and ages." (Center for Youth and Communities, Brandies University) Is it Motivating? What Most People Think.and what it really is. They put them into four different age groups to do this. (Center for Youth and Communities, Brandies University) "Most people think that robotics is a nerd thing. You know what, it is. But its not all about building and programming. Its also about writing, presentation skills, cheering for your team, and team spirit!" (Brenda Branch, Michel Collver, and Mary Kasanda) One of the goals in First is to put students with kids their own age.

Transcript: Leadership Don't forget buttons Elimination Rounds Wednesday: Drop off robot and pits (no working) Thursday: Practice Set up pits Robot inspection Practice matches Registration (STIMS List) Friday: Qualification Matches 3 vs. 3 round robin qualification matches Judges come around Award Ceremony Saturday: Qualification and Elimination Morning: Qualification Matches Before Lunch: Picking alliances After Lunch: Elimination Rounds Award Ceremony How to be Successful Team Communication FIRST Ecosystem Gracious Professionalism Team sustainability can be achieved by the entire team working together Fundraising Learn from mistakes Takes time and experience to become a stable team ex. Team 772 has been around for 13 years For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology Founded in 1989 by inventor of the Segway, Dean Kamen Teams consist of professional mentors and students 3000 FRC teams, 1000's of FTC and FLL teams, 300 000+ Students involved Teams from Canada, United States, Brazil, Mexico, etc. FIRST National Adviser, Dr. Woodie Flowers, developed the term Way of doing things that encourages high-quality work, emphasizes the value of others, and respects individuals and the community FRC is one o the few areas where students are taught to work with other teams and cooperate rather than to win at all costs Ex. Western Canadian Regional Behaviour of Team, Parents, etc reflects on team Competitions It is helpful to establish section leaders in order to create a well functioning team It is important for leaders to teach and mentor newer members rather than completing tasks themselves Students should take leadership on team tasks instead of mentors completing the work FIRST Robotics Schedule The 3 teams on the winning alliance Chairman's award winning team Engineering Inspiration award winning team Rookie Inspiration award winning team Wild Cards Sustainability Picking Alliances Top 8 teams after qualification matches pick 2 other teams to join their alliance At the end there will be 8 alliances of 3 teams SCOUT! Other teams will scout in pits by asking about your robot Eliminations Best 2 out of 3 8th place plays 1st place alliance, 7th plays 2nd place and so on... FIRST Robotics Who Qualifies for Worlds 13 FRC teams, 24 FLL teams, 4 Jr. FLL Teams in Windsor-Essex County and we all have one vision All teams are here to support each other Only competing on the field Windsor Essex FIRST Students Member Page on Facebook Let us know if you need help! Team Communication is a vital element to ensure team sustainability It is important for all sections to communicate with each other and their mentors ex. Mechanical, Electrical, and Programming to make sure the robot functions properly
