Learn about the experience of students and tutors who have participated in CRITICALTHINKING4VET network mobilities
“I find the way of working very interesting, I am learning how to work in digital work environments, and I think it is an enriching experience”
“I find the project very interesting and fun. It is a job that is very good, it is not very complicated to do, besides that it is an interesting project. And the companions, and the tutors of the project are very nice, a very good coexistence.”
“My experience through this job will stay with me because it was something new and something very nice we spent three months who will follow me for all the next years it was a life experience.I would like to come back to work for Ikasia”
“We had a great time, all the conditions were very good, all the people were good, there was good communication with all the people in the company, nice environment, I would love to work with them.”
“I gained knowledge and experience in many subjects, which I am very happy and fortunate to be able to have and I am sure it will help me in my future work and daily life. At first, I felt completely lost, but with the help of our mentors everything started to make sense and I could keep working on our project. Practicing critical thinking on a daily basis assisted on my personal growth and developing even more my problem solving skills.”
“I like these kind of projects and it’s a very good idea to participate in because you can learn a lot of things. Working virtually it’s a great idea because you can work at your home and you can also meet new people with this project. Also working as a team it’s a very good idea for us to complete our tasks. I would like to work this way in a technology company.”
“For me, this project is a learning opportunity because being from the branch of chemistry and microbiology, I find it very interesting how the bioreactor works. By working as a team it encourages communication and diversity of opinions, helps social skills evolve, in addition to improving our level of English a lot since group meetings are in English. In conclusion, it is a very interesting project where I have discovered how a bioreactor works and it has given me the opportunity to work in a great team at an international level.”
“I´m an Erasmus student I decided to sign in, they put me in the informatics team and, since my studies emphasize electronics, I din´t feel confident enough at the begining but so far so good, I felt included from the first moment I got into aprivate meeting with my team and since they are all computing students, my own knowledge came in pretty handy for them and i ended up feeling pretty useful. This experience has made me change my pesimist vision about teamwork and I hope I can learn usefull things from my teammates and apply my own knowledge in order to make their labors easier.”
