Estudio para la implementación de un laboratorio móvil de ingeniería y ciencias en el colegio Estanislao Zuleta de la localidad de Usme

Abstract

The current social project was made in order to implement a moving engineering and science laboratory at the Estanislao Zuleta IED school in Usme, based on a viability study based on the PMBOK methodology through the phases of initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, control and closure. In the 1st phase, activities were carried out as a kick-off meeting while in the 2nd everything related to the study of beneficiaries for the detection of needs, technical study, analysis of the object, definition of characteristics, conceptual design, detailed design and financial evaluation giving as result that in the 3rd phase related to execution of the moving laboratory were built as such composed of the cart made of black water pipe covered by electrostatic paint, with wheels capable of moving down and up stairs, with a sliding piece that allows to increase the constant installed capacity, 5 laboratory boxes with two levels, lock with key and foam inside which ensures the integrity of the elements which carries.

We also made out manuals of processes and procedures with varied practices for the target population corresponding to 4th / 5th grade of elementary school and 11th of high school, it should be noted that within the high school practices some of Industrial Engineering were designed, the pilot tests confirmed the viability of the project with some aspects to take into account like how the clear explanation of the engineering laboratory before starting the activities for eleven while in the pilot tests of 5th prevaleced maintain the order of the students since they do not attend laboratory classes and do not know the behavior that must follow in this space. The trainings concluded with satisfactory results and positive comments from the teachers so that finally, in the monitoring and control monitoring stage, a comparison was made with the baseline of the project and the results achieved, as well as the lessons learned and successes for its subsequent formal acceptance of the project with an act issued by the rectory.
