Project

Posted by FLL Egypt in FLL at a glance! Tuesday, 15 December 2009 12:00 No Comments

The project is the second part of the FLL Challenge. Teams start working on their research project by defining their communities, and by then addressing some certain problem related to the theme existing within their communities. Finding innovative solution for the problem is what comes next in their journey with the project. They complete their project by sharing their solution with their own defined communities.

The field is where the Robot Game takes place.  It consists of a field mat, on a table, with mission models arranged on top.  The field mat and the LEGO pieces for building the mission models are part of your Field Setup Kit. MISSION MODELS’ instructions for building the mission models are on a CD, in the same box as the LEGO pieces.  Instructions for how to build the table and how to arrange everything on it are in the Field Setup section in the Challenge.

Like any other game, the FLL Robot Game has also rules! Make sure to check the updated list of rules when it’s published for the new season, Body Forward. Rules are essential for to know prior to competing for the Robot Game.

You have to remember that  you are “Gracious Professionals.”  This means you are competing hard against PROBLEMS, while treating PEOPLE with respect and kindness – people from your own team as well people from other teams. You build onto other people’s ideas instead of resisting or defeating them.

Robot Game missions are the Robot Tasks and Point Values.The Body Forward Challenge missions will be listed early September in the challenge page.

By rules, the current Game Q&A page on the web takes overall precedence. MAKE SURE TO CHECK BACK THERE OFTEN. The head ref is not obligated to consider calls made at previous tournaments unless those calls have been added to the latest Game Q&A.

Can FLL teams improve our quality of life? Through the 2010 Body Forward Challenge, 9 to 16 year olds will explore the cutting-edge world of biomedical engineering to discover innovative ways to repair injuries, overcome genetic predispositions, and maximize the body’s potential, with the intended purpose of leading happier and healthier lives.

Join us in September 2010 for the Body Forward Challenge release.

For questions that may rise up to you regarding the project, always check the Project Q&A section of the Challenge page. It shall contain questions posted from teams, and answers to them.

It can be easy to get carried away with the designing, building, and programming of the FLL robot. But remember that the performance’s score of a robot is only 25% of a team’s score at the tournament. Equally important to the team’s total score are your efforts in: Tthe Project, where you research a topic and effectively present a well thought-of explanation of your team’s creative solution. The technical interview, where you explain the technical aspects of your robot’s design and programming. Teamwork, where you work effectively as a team and demonstarate FLL Core Calues. Each of these additional areas contributes 1/4 of your score for the day. Do not lose sight of the importance and skill building that each of these components can have on your team.
