CBL self evaluation

 

CBL project Week 3

 During this week, you must:

- Draw a sketch of front, side and top view with some general measurements

- Draw a sketch (3D or the best view possible) of your construction's structure. Identify the resisting elements and the types of effort present in each element. Identufy the types of structures you are using

- Draw at least one complete view with your set squares, at your chosen scale (your teacher will help you), giving an idea of colors and materials

- Publish these 3 drawings on the class padlet. White paper, well presented, write labels. Everything must be published with your team name before Friday the 3rd at midnight. These are the links to the padlets:

3º ESO B click here

3º ESO CD click here

3º ESO E click here

You also must start working on your physical model, so bring the materials you will use to class, in a bag. Write down any expenses on a budget paper so you later can work out who owes money to who

And don't forget recording scenes for your final video!!!

1st Storyboard: Guiding questions and challenge presentation

BIG IDEA: The School's playground

ESSENTIAL QUESTION: How can we improve the shool's playground

THESE ARE THE GUIDING QUESTIONS SUGGESTED BY THE TEACHER

 What do you usually do in the playground?

What would you like being able to do in the playground?

What is the purpose of the playground?

What other purposes should the playground have?

What types of relationships originate in the playground?

What other relationships do you think the playground should enhace?

Is the playground distribution fair for everyone?

How does the weather affect the playground?

Is the playground cosy? How could it be cosier?

How can we use what we learned in Technology to improve the playground?

Is the playground a relaxing place? Is it stressful?

THESE ARE THE GUIDING ACTIVITIES SUGGESTED BY THE TEACHER

Drawing a sketch of the area of the playground where you will work (compulsory)

Drawing plans with measurements of the chosen area (compulsory)

Observing the playground at different times of the day

Doing surveys to students, teacher, PAS or families

Taking photos and/or videos of the playground

Finding examples of solutions for similar problems in other contexts

CBL Sessions planning per class

CBL project presentation

For the rest of the school year, we'll be working in a project based on the CBL methodology.

Watch this introductory video first:

Now, have a look at this video about the roles and responsabilities in the team:

CBL project. Step 1: researching

 Welcome to the first exercise of our Challenge Based Learning (CBL) project!!!

All the project is going to be related to URBAN EQUIPMENT

We are surrounded by it when we live in cities but, what is it? How does it influence our daily lives? Is it all updated, modern and well designed? Does it have disadvantages or can it be bothering sometimes? How does it influence the urban landscape?

In your first exercise, you are going to make some research that will work as inspiration for the design stages later to come. You can start your research by having a look at this Pinterest dashboard I've created for you, but of course you can find information anywhere else!!

Check your Task in Teams for your deadline and prepare a WORD DOCUMENT including the next parts:

1- Cover (title "Urban equipment research project" + pair members names + class + image) and index

2- Introduction: What is urban equipment? Examples. Insert some photos of urban equipment you use in your neighbourhood. Other guiding questions for your introduction can be: How does it influence our daily lives? How does it influence the urban landscape and the human interactions in the city?

3- Information about 3 pieces of urban equipment you find in the Internet:

    - Photos.

    - Where is it and who designed it.

    - Utilities.

    - Materials it's made of.

    - General measurements (height, width, lenght, you can show them on an annotated sketch made by         you and insert a photo).

4- Choose one of the 3 selected pieces of equipment and make a 3D model with Sketchup. Export various png files and insert them in your work. Include components (people, trees, bicycles... to give an idea of its scale). Check the bottom of this post to see how to find components in Sketchup.

5- Conclusion. Answer the following questions:

    - What have you learned doing this research?

    - Is the urban equipment aroun you updated, modern and well designed? 

    - Does urban equipment disadvantages or can it be bothering sometimes?

    - What type of urban equipment is more attractive for you? What would you like to design?

6- Webgraphy: list of visited websites.

7- Self-evaluation: Copy the chart with the items and the maximum points an complete the column according to your own opinion about your work. Don't forget adding it on the last page of the project if you don't want to get 1 point less in the final mark.

These are the presentation rules and the evaluation criteria:

- Convert your .doc file into a pdf file and send it to the teacher via Teams in the assigned deadline.

- In case of pairs, BOTH STUDENTS must send their work by Teams. If not, 1 point will be taken off both students' mark and 1 extra point from the student not sending it.

- Here are your evaluation criteria for you to complete your self evaluation:

Item	Description	Maximum points	Self evaluation	Teacher’s evaluation
Parts of the work	The work includes all the parts indicated in the instructions, in the right order	1
Quality of the research	Enough examples have been researched, using original online resources. Each example is detailed in photos, materials, description, measurements and utility.	3
Depth of your reflections	The conclusion and the introduction include reflective deep thoughts, own ideas and show motivation and interest.	2
3D model	The chosen example is represented on images (.png) files inserted in the work. The images include an idea of the materials used and the object’s scale. It includes people, trees or vehicles to integrate it on an urban landscape.	3
Presentation	The work is presented in a clean and beautiful manner, taking care of the typographies, the spaces between paragraphs, the inserted photos… It’s original and creative.	1

This is where to find the components in Sketchup:
