PILOT TEST

The project began with enthusiasm and the idea of overcoming obstacles, as it has been. The idea of organizing the different points of a project by means of a computer program undoubtedly catches the attention of the student and motivates them in its development. If we add to this the fact that they have always kept in mind that the results were received by a Portuguese company, it adds an even greater incentive.

I liked it. I think it’s been helpful. I would recommend especially if you like to do research, it’s a good way to reinforce it.

My experience of participating as an instructor-coordinator of the pilot test was extremely interesting and pleasant for me. At first, I saw it as a challenge, as a problem that we had to solve with the students, to work as if we were professionals in an IT company and using specialized project management software, to finally make a website that communicates with the 3D printer. The use and familiarization with the project management software was a very important experience for the students as such environments are used in large companies and will be an additional qualification for them when they find themselves in the professional field. The most gratifying thing is that the students responded with great interest and understood its importance, a fact that is also reflected in the texts they wrote at the end expressing their opinion about the project. Thanks for the nice collaboration

The construction of the page and the connecting with a 3d printer was a challenge for me and the students. The students showed great interest from the beginning. The project developed smoothly because the goals we set were few, appropriate and easy. The students participated enthusiastically and worked individually and as a team to complete the project with very little help from us. They engaged in the activities without difficulty and at the end of the hour we commented on what they could improve. The point they found difficult but more interesting was the connection the button to the 3d printer. In conclusion, both I and the students were pleased and satisfied with the achievement of the goals and we are waiting for the next project.

I deem the pilot tests carried on very successful. The students took the challenge enthusiastically and successfully, on occasions even surpassing our expectations. I personally think these activities are very important for the students in preparing them for their future labor experience. Not only prepares them for the technical challenges but more so for the mental ones. Facing a challenge, a new environment, and sometimes both, can be difficult to manage. Being able to face them from a mixed scenario of new challenges and colleagues but with their own class and teacher puts them in comfortable place where they can absorb the novelty of the experience while simultaneously having the security of their know classroom.

This enriching experience will leave the students better prepared and experienced in facing the demands and novelty of the labor world. Taking challenges and changes with enthusiasm and confidence.

This project was ok for me because it was just different from all the different projects I’ve done in the past that involve computer studies and I have to say it’s a better because how it keeps getting a bit fun because how it’s starting to be … and more structured. Also I would love to visit you one time and it would be real nice if you gave us more projects because they are more enjoyable than the one we are doing at school.
