Robotics Survey
It is essential that we bring our best selves, our most enthusiastic team spirit, and a functional robot to the Virginia Regional. It is our home turf and many of our sponsors and members of the MLWGS community will be there. This survey gathers feedback from students, mentors, and parents about what Team 422 is doing well and ways in which Team 422 can improve. Since FIRST values are more important than the robot, four questions ask respondents to assess how the team is doing in this area. Five questions (1 and 6 through 9) are mandatory; the rest are optional. Free response answers are limited to 60 characters per answer box. Please respond candidly and constructively by no later than 9pm this Friday, March 25th. Ms. D will consolidate and "anonymize" the results, then share them in a team meeting on Saturday, March 26th.
