It was very succesfull: cheldren and teachers were enthousiastic about the sport and we received a lot of attention with an article in a news paper and an item on the local television: News item television

Basque and Danish students worked on an automated green wall solution Automation and Industrial Robotics and Industrial Mechatronics students from Armeria Eskola (Eibar,  Basque Country) and Gardening and Landscaping studentsfrom Green Academy (Aarhus, Denmark) worked on an automated vertical garden prototype merging horticulture and technology. In Denmark, at the Green Academy school, students first learnt about the characteristics and needs of plants and gardens and how to incorporate them into the community. After that, at Armeria Eskola, they focused mainly on technology – pneumatics, hydraulics, sensors and programming. They also dealt with a variety of transversal topics, including biodiversity, green urban planning or sustainable development. Both modules were a success and

EMEU cooperation Five students from Roc Horizon College (the Netherlands) and two students from Aarhus Tech (Denmark) have been developing a computer programming challenge at UNI Eibar. Ruben San Martin, UNI-EIBAR international projects coordinator

New module in the mechanical field From 20th to 31st of March 2023 Armeria Eskola hosted the first edition of the Electrical Discharging Machining Module.  Students from the Mechanical Manufacturing Design study program together with 4 German students from Production and Tool Mechanics programs -belonging to Berufsschule für Fertigungstechnik Munich- learnt about wire eroding processes, including the selection of the appropriate materials as well as the tools to be used depending on the difficulty of the part to be machined. Visits to field-related companies and cultural activities such as visiting museums, cave exploration or walking to an island on the Biscay Coast were part of the module program. Alina Ivan,

Partners made progress in the development of the crossover modules What skills and competences do vocational education students need to successfully complete a crossover study module involving a completely  different speciality from theirs? What activities and materials should teachers design for students from different fields who work together for two or three weeks in an international team? These are the two trigger questions more than 40 teachers tried to unravel during the second transnational project meeting, which took place on the 24th and 25th of November in the newly built facilitites at Sakky Campus, in Kuopio, Finland. Teachers worked on the contents of the two study modules to be developed,

Meetings took place both in Haarlem and at Horizon College in Heerhugoward On the 18th,19th and 20th May, teachers from all the partners countries attended the meeting with their EMEU colleagues in Haarlem, The Netherlands, hosted by their colleagues from Horizon College. At the meeting, several items were dissused such as: the mobilities carried out this year and how to improve them in the future, we took decisions about aspects around the assessment of the students who participate and common competences to be assessed, as well as proposed new modules for the autumn. We also agreed about the posibility of making technical workshops in our next meetings in order to

Meetings took place from 16th to 20th of May 2022 Within the EMEU project we organize working group meetings in a different country every year. This year ICT teachers got together at UNI EIBAR-ERMUA to discuss projects with colleagues from Denmark, Finland and the Netherlands. Meetings took place from 16th to 20th of May 2022, where we evaluated the modules of this school year in order to improve them for the future and planned new ones for next year’s students. We also visited some ICT companies in the area. Likewise, we have organized cultural activities in Eibar, Markina-Xemein, Lekeitio and in the Durango area. Ruben San Martin, ICT teacher and

Electrical Advanced Engineering Module completed An international group consisting of 2 Slovakian (Stredná priemyselná škola technická/ Spiiska Nova Ves), 2 Spanish (Armeria Eskola/ Eibar) and 2 Dutch (ROC Horizon) students completed in tandem teams with 6 German apprentices a 2-weeks study module (09.May – 20.May) in Munich, at the Vocational School of Metal – Design – Mechatronics/ Munich – Germany. After getting to know the city of Munich by bike we started the next day with the course content: Electrical Engineering! The content consisted of programming an asynchronous motor including frequency converter and setting up a gate control with a star-delta start-up on a test stand. It was completed by

IoT and Lan party Nine students and four teachers from UNI EIBAR (Basque Country) have traveled to ROC Horizon College (The Netherlands) to develop two projects related to ICT:– ICT-Internet of Things: The students have learned to program in Python using Raspberry Pi, thus starting out in the world of programming.– Lan PARTY: they have helped in the organization of a Lan Party with conferences and online games.The assessment of both projects has been very positive and the participants have shown their intention to repeat in the next school year.
