-->Inspired by Example
We want to take a moment
to refocus the FLL community on one of the core concepts of FIRST LEGO League.
Lately, we have noticed some community members, albeit well-intentioned
community members, post solutions for the current seasons’ Robot Game and robot
design via social media. While sharing is an important part of FLL, we strongly
urge all who post this information to take a close look at what they are
posting. The goal of sharing is to inspire others and to let them experience and
celebrate their own learning process. We encourage all teams to share tips on
the FLL Challenge and respectfully request that solutions be discovered on an
individual basis. We also encourage teams who find inspiration from the FLL
community to use that inspiration to develop their own innovative solutions to
solve Robot Game missions. Thank you.
