VET teachers connected through the IoT

6 de June de 2022

On 11 May, the 1st Conference on the Internet of Things (IoT) for VET teachers took place in Distrito Digital, organised by CIDA.

The main objective of the conference was to promote the exchange of experiences and establish synergies between teachers and companies in the sector.

It was attended by 120 vocational training teachers from 12 professional families, and from more than 30 schools in the three provinces. The aim was to raise awareness of new trends in the Internet of Things (IoT), through the companies, of which a total of 15 participated, and the schools themselves, so that teachers and students can expand their knowledge and digital skills.

There was an adjoining area with stands where 7 educational centres and 6 companies showed the application of IoT technology, through models and various exhibitions. There was also a networking area, where attendees were able to expand information, resolve doubts and create or update contacts.

It was a very rewarding and motivating experience that we hope to repeat in new editions with greater participation, if possible.

CASE STUDIES IN CENTRES:

A great job that we are sure to repeat in future editions, increasing the number of participants at both educational and professional level, which demonstrates the enormous talent found in our Vocational Training.

At the end of the event, a satisfaction survey was carried out among the participating teachers with very positive results that encourage us to repeat the experience.

MICROALGAE Project

1 de February de 20221 de February de 2022

The Microalgae Project is a collaborative network generated by the teachers’ interested in the cultivation of microalgae, their uses and how to adapt this challenge in the classroom, using active methodologies and introducing digital technologies in the process. The idea comes from the pioneering centre IES DR. Peset Aleixandre, with six more schools joining as:

IES Virgen del Remedio (Alicante)
CIPFP Batoi (Alcoi)
IES La Melva (Elda)
IES Gonzalo Anaya (Xirivella)
CIPFP Blasco Ibánez (Valencia)
IES Alto Palancia (Segorbe)

This project involves Vocational Training teachers from the Chemistry, Safety and Environment, Health, Computer Systems and Applications and Agriculture families, as well as secondary school teachers specialising in Physics and Chemistry and Technology.
They are working on the design and manufacture of an automated microalgae cultivation plant, looking for different applications such as water purification, the manufacture of a nutritional supplement or incorporation into a cosmetic product.
It is a multidisciplinary project where all the teaching staff contribute their vision of the challenge and work on it in the classroom, through challenge-based learning.

On 20 November, a conference was organised between IES Dr. Peset Aleixandre and the Advanced Digital Innovation Centre (CIDA), in which the participants of the collaborative network had talks from colleagues about the cultivation of microalgae and its digitalisation. At the end of the day, they participated in a talk and workshop given by AINIA Technology Centre.
