| Date: | Saturday, December 5, 2009 |
Location: | Georgia Institute of Technology Savannah |
| Schedule: | 9:00 Check In |
| Planning Ahead: | You want your team to look like a team! Wear your school colors, make team T-shirts, or wear matching hats, necklaces, etc. |
| Remember to bring: | Lap top with the LEGO software Power strip - each team will have 1 outlet Extension cord - your outlet may be under the next table, with walking space between. USB cable for your robot Extra parts in case a motor goes bad or you change strategy Batteries or charger |
| The "Pit Area": | Teams will keep their things in their "pit area", which will be a folding table in a large room. You will have access to one outlet, which may be one table away, so you will need to bring an extension cord and a power strip. Organizers and volunteers cannnot patrol the pit area at all times. Please clearly label your belongings and have a plan for keeping track of your equipment (robots, computers, spare parts). I strongly suggest an adult watch the table at all times. |
| Presenting the Project: | Teams have 5 minutes to present, and 2-3 minutes for question and answers. No additional time is alloted for set up and breakdown, so you should rehearse entering the room and presenting in five minutes or less. |
