  4. MATERIALS ORGANIZATION & MANAGEMENT Lego tips for organizing parts during a project (Table of Contents) • Advantages for using kits (i.e., Mindstorm NXT, mini-kits) - Easy clean up; low cost, minimal space (go to Lego Engineering Tips) • Advantages for using bins - Encourages open end design; - Allows for sharing resources; quick sorting (go to Lego Engineering Tips) • Advantages for using Mini-kits (i.e., specific project) - Team accountability; - Easy clean up; guided by teacher or project (go to Lego Engineering Tips)

  5. MATERIALS ORGANIZATION & MANAGEMENT Appropriate Use Contract - Rules & Norms (Table of Contents) • Student responsibilities - Breakage; replacement costs; where to operate equipment • Parent involvement with contract - Signature; awareness of student expectations • To share or not to share parts (go to Lego Engineering Tips) - Kits NO; Mini-kits  NO; Bins  YES • Appropriate Use Contract for students, teams (go to Contract link)
