Ratoath College, Materials Technology Wood & Construction Studies updates

[RC MTW and CS @RCMTWCS]

Finishing off the Term with some new room signs. Wood Technology complete, Construction Studies still under construction! @JCt4ed @technology_4 @technoteachers

[RC MTW and CS @RCMTWCS]

Cara's construction studies project shows all of her skills. Design, manufacture and presentation. No restrictions of a brief really suits some students. The epoxy brought it all to a perfect finish @technoteachers @JCt4ed

[RC MTW and CS @RCMTWCS]

Another of our female Construction studies students showing design, creativity and innovation. A subject that allows student flair to flourish. @technoteachers @JCt4ed

[RC MTW and CS @RCMTWCS]

Work from last year's Construction studies students. Best wishes for you college journey. A subject that allows individual creativity and design. @technoteachers

[RC MTW and CS @RCMTWCS]

One of the Construction studies projects from last year. Hand joints with a modern epoxy twist. Sad to see it leave the school.

Some 3D printing used to develop the understanding of DCG students. They can now get some hands on experience with road geometry. @technoteachers @JCt4ed @technology_4

@MrClaffey @technoteachers @JCt4ed @technology_4 👍 Thanks Ciaran, trying to keep some active learning and hands on skills during this lockdown.

[RC MTW and CS @RCMTWCS]

Some fantastic active learning still taking place during online learning in 5th year Construction Studies. @technoteachers @JCt4ed @technology_4

[RC MTW and CS @RCMTWCS]

Some fantastic research and communication of the geometry in lamp shades by our 2nd year Graphics students over lockdown. @JCt4ed @technoteachers #Graphics

[RC MTW and CS @RCMTWCS]

Amazing when the presentation of solutions are left up to the student creativity. Outstanding work from Ciara, our 2nd year Graphics student. #JCt4 #graphics

[RC MTW and CS @RCMTWCS]

Getting the benefit of 3D printed DCG models in these times of online teaching. Students giving fantastic feedback on the coloured solid models. #JCt4 #t4 #sindoh #DCG #Technoteachers #graphics

@foleyfurniture @GMITLetterfrack Thanks Ann. Will be an interesting Friday when the 1st years have to submit photos of their conversion models from home sourced materials!

[RC MTW and CS @RCMTWCS]

Some online timber conversion practical going on today in Wood Technology. #JCt4 #remotelearning
