"The wiper glasses are made of plastic and steel. They have a unique design. It comes in three colours (White, Brown and Black). It costs from 39.99€. For people come on the 1 week they have 15% of discount.



This is our commercial story board:


We learned to work in group with limit time and have a nice project. It´s been a challenge for us and we achieved the challenge.”



Smart suitcase

"This was an interesting project, we think that the people need a smartsuitcase in their trips.

The suitcase has a GPS, you can charge your mobile phone, you can listen music and many more things.


We have enjoyed it, we are happy with our group, we have learnt work in team and it flowed out.

Would you like to watch our commercial?"




MBS (Modern Blind Stick)

"This product is for blind or blind-deaf people.
It has a GPS incorporated, that help you walk soundly.
You can use the vibration mode if it's more helpful.
It's made of silicone and metal.

We learned that if we have not too much time, working in group is much better because we have more ideas and we are more efficient.
We’re happy working on our product because it could be helpful to handicapped people giving them independence."

Apps for Good - KEEP TRAINING!

Juanma López Iturriaga concluded: For the ones who won, “keep training”, and for the ones who didn’t win “keep training”.


But in the end WE ALL WON! It was such an incredible experience being there, in the Fundación Endesa Apps for Good Festival, that we all felt that was our price.

Our three finalist Apps: Healthy Scan, Recarga ya and Simple Life were presented in the Market Place and two of the groups had the opportunity to do the elevator pitch. All the three groups made a great job presenting the apps to all the authorities and potential investors and were really professional and communicative. WE ARE VERY PROUD OF YOU!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!


Would you like to watch our video to see all the process? And never forget: KEEP TRAINING!!

A new flag for Madrid

In the Escuela Profesional Javeriana we decided to redesign the Flag of the City of Madrid with our assistant Claire Magee. We followed the following steps:


1. We wached the video by Roman Mars on TED Talks to find out about the rules of flag design



    2. Following the 5 principles of flag design, each group of students worked on three different possibilities 

    3. They chose the best one to present to the class and explained the symbolism of the design and colours.

    4. Each class voted the best design to show on the English Corner

    Coming soon the winning flag designs for the City of Madrid...

    Living in London

    Our International Trade graduate Nadia Tachfine is now living in London. Do you want to find out about her experience there? 

    "If you still don't have a clear idea of what to do when you finish your degree you could definitely consider the possibility of coming to London!! It's a city full of opportunities for young people.

    When I finished my studies in International Trade in the Escuela Profesional Javeriana I felt scared to move to London, but I always ended up thinking  that if I didn't like it I always could go back to Spain with a better level of English, so I’d lose nothing! 

    It is true that London is full of Spanish people and this makes it harder to learn English, but you can always socialize with people from other countries and practice with them as London is a multicultural city.

    Something interesting is that you can easily continue your studies at university with your diploma of Técnico Superior in Vocational Training. Our diploma is considered here in UK an HND and you can top up to the second year or even the last year depending on how the universities that you are going to apply consider your application.

    It's a great experience and as I said guys you will lose nothing!

    Nadia"
