The point of this post is to
A. Help end the debate of which is best, and has proven result.
B. Help new Teams choose what they may want to use if they are lost or confused.
This is a really interesting statistic. I am using a vertical Google slides notebook with a template that I found. I don’t love the template though, so for those of you who use a vertical Google slides, would you mind sharing a link to your template?
@lacsap Yeah, that’s the one I’m using rn and I don’t like how at the bottom of each page it has lines labeled “project” and “name” but no spot for a signature so when I type my own it looks kinda messy. Not that big a deal but it would be really cool if vex would provide a couple template options for teams to chose from.
I personally prefer digital because I find it easier to work with, but I believe my team is doing a physical notebook this season. It honestly just up to personal preference. There are many pros and cons to each type and it’s hard to declare one as the better option.
So this may seem a bit wierd but my team we are using the regular notebook from vex but then we use some of the digital notebook drawings or game peices that way we spend less the on drawing and have more time to other things.
Different flavor of digital notebook here…
Our team is trying something out; definitely a bit of a gamble…
We are using a website hosted on GitHub for our notebook (Jekyll).
We are a little nervous that it will be unorthodox enough that judges will have a hard time navigating it. As such, we have spent a lot of time cleaning up the navigation style of the website.
