Check your Engineering Notebook. Page and Update your Robot club Docs.
Make sure you update what you did for 70+ minutes
After break you can work on open lab / robot club projects. This means catching up on missing assignments finishing the servo lab. Working on your robot club project. I know some of you might be stuck today sorry I will get you helped on Friday. Do the best you can, but, make sure that you write in your engineering notebook what you actually did I will be checking engineering notebooks.
