E-cars in cities - Experience

3. November 2020 Dylan-Buergin E cars in cities, Step 3 Experience, Team Zurich M18a, IDAF20 (0)

Our experience so far:

Review and assessment of things done and still to do

We have a list of things we still have to do and things we have already done. And in this list we can look up everything and therefore we can't forget anything.

And when we do our posts on the Horse, we check them afterwards and if we are not done yet, we write it down.

And then assessment, I think that we have done our job not bad so far, these things we had to organize are perfect. For example the electric car. So if we had to assess that, I would give the collaboration a 4.75. And we are trying to invest more time for these things that we still have to do.

Problems encountered so far

We thought we had more problems than we have. This is a good sign, but we try to contact BMW and we don't get an answer. So Nils wrote to them and we did not get an answer yet.

The second is that we are trying to get in contact with foreign countries, but nobody wants to cooperate yet. But I still have 2 contacts that might work. But i have to Motivate them.

 

 

What could have been done differently

We could have gone to BMW in the company earlier and asked directly for an interview, then we would have received a clear and quick answer. And we wouldn't have to wait all the time for an answer. But I think that we will do the visit soon, because there is not enough time to wait.

We could have done our planning a little better. We're not bad at the moment, but it couldn't have been a bit more.

 

How likely is for our working hypothesis to be confirmed?

 

I think it is very likely because we think that in the future we will only drive cars with electric motors and we humans are slowly getting ready to do something for the environment, in my opinion. And the market for electric cars is huge right now.

Almost every car brand is trying to build an electric car that they can participate in this revolutionary invention.

And we, with this project, can certainly convince some friends or maybe strangers and explain them, that this is a good thing to do to help the environment.

Questions for our survey - Survey on climate-changing measures

27. October 2020 Livia-Hobi Measures of CityClimate, Project planning, Step 3 Experience, Team Zurich M18a, IDAF20 (9)

We are going to create a survey in order to find out about peoples opinions and to find out what they already know and do for our environment. Our goal is to show people, how many of them already do something for the earth.

 

Link for the german survey: https://ee.humanitarianresponse.info/x/JgQ8WMUA

 

These are our questions:

1. Von welchen Klimawirksamen Massnahmen wissen Sie bereits?

2. Welche Massnahmen setzen Sie bereits um?

3. Wie viel von einer Skala von 1-10 machen Sie für unser Klima?

 
 Wie viel machen Sie für das Klima 1-2 
Nichts		 3-4
sehr wenig		 5-6
ein wenig		 7-8
viel		 9-10
sehr viel

4. Wieso setzen Sie gewisse Massnahmen nicht um?

5. Was braucht es für Sie, um diese Massnahmen umzusetzen?

6. Wo denken Sie, fallen die meisten Kosten an, wenn man sich nicht für das Klima einsetzt?

7. Was halten Sie von "Grünen Zonen", die nur mit Elektro-Autos befahrbar sind?

Bitte angeben:

Der letzte Schwachsinn
Habe schon bessere Ideen gehört
Die Idee ist gut, hat aber ein paar Schwachstellen
Eine gute Idee
Ich finde die Idee wunderbar 

8. Wie würden Sie reagieren, wenn Ihre Strasse ab sofort nur noch mit Elektroautos befahrbar wäre?

 

9. Wie stellen Sie sich die Stadt der Zukunft vor?

10. Zählen Sie 5 Sachen auf, welche Sie bei einer Stadt der Zukunft voraussetzen.

befter 2020/21 - Focused on city climate and city trees

15. October 2020 Eliane-Suter befter CITY Climate & Trees, Project planning, Step 1 Imagination, Step 2 Research, Step 3 Experience, Step 4 Shape and Create, Step 5 Reflection, Step 6 Publishing, Step 7 Promotion & Feedback (0)

«befter» project - before & after the experience

The goal
Creating a teams’ experience for building a relationship to the «real world» and in collaboration between teams across the world. The final goal is a publication of the experience on the project website www.dontwastemy.energy as a gift for the world!

The reason why
Through a self-made experience students can reach a deeper learning, activate their previous knowledge and acquire new knowledge. In addition, students can get confidence in their abilities and improve their social and media competencies.

The 7 steps (light towers or milestones)

There are several steps to go through: Your own imagination, online research and team discussion, performing the experience, self-reflection compared to step 1 and 2, finally publishing on dontwastemy.energy and propagation on social media and asking for feedback & comments.
