Tell me about Vex Robotics


Recommended Posts

I've been asked to mentor a homeschooled Vex robotics team.  I know almost nothing about this, and I strongly suspect this is outside my wheelhouse.  But I thought I'd do some due diligence anyway.  Years ago I coached an FLL team for one year, and decided it was too much for me.  I know a bit of python.  I generally enjoy competitions.

How much of a learning curve is involved?  How much homework can I expect (for me)?  How many hours a week should students meet?  Is a mentor the same as the coach or is it a different role?  Is it fun?  Is it homeschool-friendly?  

Any details are much appreciated!  Thank you!
