This learning situation, entitled "Biomedical measurement systems", combines theoretical and practical knowledge of electronics with measuring instruments and medical skills, and has been developed from Jordina's research work, as well as her master's thesis entitled "Promotion of scientific and technological vocations in secondary schools using the centers' robotics equipment", coordinated by professor Ramon Bragós Bardia.
It is structured in the following modules:
- Module 1: Introduction to measurement systems
- Module 2: Building a digital thermometer
- Module 3: Height measurement with ultrasound
- Module 4: Pulse monitoring
- Module 5: Accelerometer and tremor detector
The proposal guides ESO students through small projects focused on the field of medicine. Students design and assemble circuits to control and measure different biomedical signals, using electronic components and simulators such as Tinkercad.
This resource encourages digital literacy, logical thinking, and cooperative work through project-based learning. It integrates programming, electronics, and prototyping into the classroom, with lesson guides, circuit diagrams, and code examples for each unit.
