Parking Design [Maths & Technology]


This Learning Situation, titled "Parking Design," challenges students to combine research, design, and technical skills to solve a real-world problem.
The main goal is to create a detailed 3D model of a parking facility that complies with current regulations in Asturias regarding parking space dimensions and maneuvering zones. The project began in Math class, where students created an initial layout by distributing parking spaces for cars, motorcycles, and disabled users, adding service areas, and calculating the ramp slope.
In Technology class, this draft was transformed into a detailed 3D model using design software. Students researched the legal dimensions for each parking type and maneuvering spaces, and completed a full report to support their work.
This project allowed students to apply geometry, spatial planning, and digital design in a real-world context, while fostering creativity and problem-solving skills.

Esta Situación de Aprendizaje, titulada “Diseño de un Aparcamiento”, reta al alumnado a combinar investigación, diseño y habilidades técnicas para resolver un problema real.

El objetivo principal es crear un modelo 3D detallado de una instalación de aparcamiento que cumpla con la normativa vigente en Asturias sobre dimensiones de plazas de aparcamiento y zonas de maniobra. El proyecto comenzó en la asignatura de Matemáticas, donde el alumnado diseñó un primer plano distribuyendo plazas para coches, motocicletas y personas con movilidad reducida, incluyendo zonas de servicio y calculando la pendiente de la rampa.

En la asignatura de Tecnología, este boceto se transformó en un modelo 3D detallado utilizando software de diseño. Los estudiantes investigaron las dimensiones legales para cada tipo de plaza y espacio de maniobra, y elaboraron un informe técnico completo para respaldar su trabajo.

Este proyecto permitió al alumnado aplicar conocimientos de geometría, planificación espacial y diseño digital en un contexto real, fomentando además la creatividad y la resolución de problemas.



2ºA Bilingual Group Takes on the Paper Structure Challenge

 The students of 2ºA Bilingual have successfully completed a project in their Technology and Digitalization class. The challenge? Design and build a 15 cm high paper structure capable of supporting the weight of all the books in the classroom, using as little paper as possible.

First, each student drew their own sketch. Then, in groups, they shared their ideas, chose the best one together, and divided the work in their group.

They built the structure, wrote a technical report on the computer to explain how they did it, and finally... tested it to see if it was strong enough!

Curious to know if they succeeded? Check out this video:




Los estudiantes de 2ºA Bilingüe han completado con éxito un proyecto en su clase de Tecnología y Digitalización. ¿El reto? Diseñar y construir una estructura de papel de 15 cm de altura capaz de soportar el peso de todos los libros del aula, utilizando la menor cantidad de papel posible.

Primero, cada estudiante dibujó su propio boceto. Luego, en grupos, compartieron sus ideas, eligieron juntos la mejor y se repartieron el trabajo.

Construyeron la estructura, redactaron un informe técnico en el ordenador explicando cómo lo hicieron y, finalmente… ¡la pusieron a prueba para ver si era lo suficientemente resistente!

INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS DAY 2024

 

HUMAN RIGHTS DAY 2024

International Human Rights Day is celebrated every December 10 to promote the rights and freedoms of people in the world.

This year, to celebrate the 76th anniversary of its Declaration, we have taken a series of actions with the objective of making these Rights visible to the entire educational community. It is known that only 5% of the world's population has read the Human Rights at least once in their lives. For this reason, and with the aim of bridging this gap, the students of 1st bilingual ESO have created 30 posters that read each of the Articles both in English and Spanish. These posters can be seen displayed on the doors of every class. In addition, the same students have recorded them in both languages. You can see their work and listen to their voices in the above presentation.

 

Give Thanks!

 

Decorated Turkey Competition 2024! 

The students in 1º ESO bilingual have decorated the turkeys and have written what they are thankful for in life. Students in 2º, 3º & 4º ESO have also participted with their own gratitude posts.


Congratulations to the winners of this edition!
