Teams structure Details (Classes)

Group Size and Teamwork SeaPerch works best when students are encouraged to cooperate and work together in teams. There is a great deal of material to be learned in order to complete a build. When each student chooses an area to study more fully, they can share their knowledge with the team.

Any size of a group can work to build a SeaPerch, from a single student to a large group. However, the following list of recommended group sizes will maximize the SeaPerch experience and reduce the need for excessive kits while allowing each student to participate:

For Each Class: 2-4 students

We recommend that each student take a particular area of engineering and apply it to their team and their SeaPerch ROV build. They can then prepare short lessons on their particular areas of expertise to share them with their teammates. The following student “specialties” are recommended:

Mechanical Engineer: In charge of motors and mechanical systems.

Materials Engineer: In charge of structural systems. Checks quality of structure daily.

Electrical Engineer: In charge of control box and control systems. Maintains battery charge.

Systems Engineer/Project Overseer: Maintains positive flow, oversees the projects, and maintains a record of the build.

Presentation Designer: In charge of creating the final SeaPerch presentation.

Technical Writer/Illustrator: In charge of maintaining the engineering notebook.

We also recommend a certain number of adult supervisors in order to keep the build experience flowing smoothly and to prevent safety mishaps:

  • Open Class: For all school students
  • Middle School Class: Is open for students from primary and preparatory school
  • High School Class: Is open for students from high school
Team Registration Fees:

A registration fee of $250 will be charged for each team (5 members) attending the Regional SeaPerch Challenge.
