"One of the most significant lessons I learned from robotics is iterative design and persistent problem-solving. Many designs rarely succeed on the first attempt, instead, they demand a continuous cycle of building, testing, analyzing results, and refining approaches. This approach and process of learning can be difficult, but it allows you to learn so much once you finally get it!"

"I like both engineering and coding, and this is a great place to apply both of them."

"I want to program video games, and robotics has helped me learn how program for it."

"The most important thing I learned from robotics is that there is always something new to learn. It could be doing a task more efficiently or finding a different way to tackle a problem to make it easier."

"The best part of being on Team 1099 is there are a ton of opportunities to learn new things."

"My favorite part of being a part of FRC team 1099 is watching the robot we built come to life during a competition."

"I really want to get into astronomy and areospace, robotics is helping me know about engineering and others, like motors, team building and even having fun. Robotics club has taught me this year to engage with my peers and even come out my shell." 

"I'm going to keep it short and sweet: Always trust the process."

"Since joining DiscoTechs, I have learned much about things like how to plan long term projects, use problem solving to get through scenarios, and how to warm as a team to achieve success."

"One of the most important things I have learned from robotics is perseverance. Most things will not go as planned and learning to work under pressure and around almost everything going wrong is what robotics is all about." 

"One of the most important things I’ve learned from robotics is how to work as a team to solve complex problems. Everyone brings something different to the table, and that makes us stronger."
