 2. Think Award

 This award is given to the team that best reflects the “journey” the team took as they experienced the engineering design process during the build season.   The Engineering Notebook is the key reference for judges to help identify the most deserving team.  The team’s Engineering Notebook should focus on the design and build stage of the team’s robot.  Journal entries of interest to judges for this award will include those describing the steps, brainstorms, designs, re-designs, successes, and those ‘interesting moments’ when things weren’t going as planned.  A team will not be a candidate for this award if they have not completed the section of the Engineering Notebook describing the team’s experience. –usfirst.org
