Robotics

So I was there on Monday when we had to do robotics, and we had to start building the first part, after we took inventory. To me, since I'm not that smart of a person, the instructions and steps were very confusing to me. I've never had to put something together like that, and it was really hard to understand but once i got the hang of it, it went pretty easily. The only thing that made it 10 times harder one me, was my partner didn't do anything. He just stood there, observing everything that I was doing. And I understand he doesn't know me, but he could at least say "oh here, i got the wrench" and helped but he doesn't but I understand he doesn't know me but I talk to him because that's how team work, works. So personally, I would work alone, since I basically am. Plus I feel like I work better on my own because I don't have any distractions. I definitely think I could be doing more than robotics. I'm missing precious time in my first 2 periods of school, and that agitates me because I believe if the people that want to do robotics, should, but we shouldn't be forced into doing a class that we don't want to do. I personally would rather learn Spanish and Biology rather than robotics. But I think robotics is a good skill to have overall, because its good for listening to instructions, problem solving, and everyday problems. Because say your washer broke, if you learn robotics, you could most likely fix it. (Little problems) So overall, from my first experience and what i thought about the class, I like it, but there are some major flaws. So in conclusion, that is what i think about robotics.
