Experimenting with prototypes to create different types of motion, freshman Joseph Britt works on his automaton for engineering teacher Chris Donaldsons Intro to Engineering class. In the week leading up to spring break, Britt, along with junior Levi Ladd and sophomores Rick Biswas and David Meisinger, worked on their robotics project during class in anticipation of competing at the 2020 Vex Robotics World Championships, under the agreement that they would finish the class project over spring break. I offered to build [the automaton] because I had the parts to build it, and its important to keep busy. It can be fun to challenge yourself and do new things, Britt said. I am planning on learning some new skills, like text coding, that I might use next year in robotics. If you dont always have something interesting to do, the time can just kind of blend together and you can get bored.
