Results
From
Practice Workshop
The
Practice workshop was help in s104 for two class periods. The class
consisted of the honors group, who do not know a lot about computers.
There were 17 students. We used the results of this survey to prepare
for the real workshop, which will be held at McAuley High School.

but then it got boring
-
Very
different concept integrating the idea of lego.
-
It was
interesting and creative.

- Some improvements would be more demonstrations of the different
types of things the robots do and perhaps more projects to do
- You had an articulate explanation. Simple instructions.
- It was hard to hear what you were saying. It was easy to
figure out what to do on the program.
- Presenters were well prepared, informative, and knowledgeable
about the material.
- It was enjoyable.
- Instructions were fairly clear

- It was interesting to see how the robots were programmed.
- It was kind of boring.
- Shows different uses/application from robots.
- Very
- It got boring on the second day but that was more because I was
tired (unrelated reasons).
- It was kind of easy once it was presented and it didn't hold my
attention because of that.

5)
What did you like least about this workshop?
- I think we need to do more sensor programming.
- I was disappointed when things didn't work.
- When they didn't work.
- The robots would sometimes not work.
- Not enough robots.
- Timing was bad.
- Most of the robots or computers didn't work at first.
- I wish there were different robots so we could see what they
do.
- We really didn't get a chance to do complex and interesting
stuff with the robots.
- When I wasn't working with the robots, just watching others was
a little tedious.
- Technical difficulties.
- Trying to get the robot to work.
- The wheels that kept falling off.
- Too easy.
- It was boring because we did very few things in a long amount
of time.

- Most likely not
- No
- Yes
- Yes
- Yes if it were better timed
- If I had the time, yes

- It is not something I would have done on my own, but I was
excited when I heard that our class was attending
- Probably
- Maybe
- No
- No
- I would have attended.

8)
Any suggestions or improvements
- Perhaps working with different types of options the robots can
do (mechanical arm, etc.)
- Have music and we can coordinate the robots to music
- Have different kinds of robots
- More robots
- There should be more robots and different varieties.
- I would have liked to work individually, but I can see how that
could eat up the budget.
- I would have liked to see the instructors do more complex
things with the robots
- Keep working hard
- More organization
- More challenges to make the robots do
- Change style of robots.
- I think that if you show people how to do more things with the
robots it would keep them more interested. Also, if we could
have actually made the robots from legos it would have been really
cool.
