Botball Workshop

Spent all day at the Educator's Workshop for Botball. If you don't know what Botball is, check out the website, www.botball.org


It is a wonderful program that students in Middle and High School participate in all around the world. I have had a team for the past 9 years or so. Sometimes we do well, and sometimes we don't. One year we won the regional competition beating many High Schools! This year is different. They have included an iCreate in the kit. It is really a Romba without the vacuum elements. Should be interesting.

Here's a photo,





The kids build the robot with the irobot base and program it to do the specific task given. The robot is autonomous and must run its program in 90 seconds to score as many possible points as it can. It must stop after 90 seconds or it is disqualified. It is a tournament in which schools compete against each other. I can not tell you how exciting it is!

Have to go now... Peace and Love!

Blogspot Group/Survivor

I just joined the Blogspot Blogger's group on blog365. I hope I can learn a lot from this group. I would like to make my blog as interesting as I can.

Watching Survivor Fan VS Faves. So far it has been pretty good. Want to see Fairplay go home. He says he wants to, but you never know what he is thinking in that devilish head of his. I watched him on Celebrity Bull Riding and that was tough for him, but good as well. Can you tell I like Reality TV? Survivor Guatamala was great. Judd is the son in law of a teacher that I work with at school. I got a lot of insight that season.

I love this show!
