Kas ir BEST?

BEST (Board of European Students of Technology) ir nepolitiska bezpeïòas Eiropas tehnisko zinâtòu studentu organizâcija, kuras misija ir attîstît studentus, nodroðinot studentiem iespçju brîvprâtîgi strâdât multikulturâlâ vidç jau kopð 1989.gada. BEST darbîbas mçríis ir nodroðinât sadarbîbu starp tehniskajiem studentiem, uzòçmumiem un universitâti. Ðobrîd BEST apvieno vietçjâs BEST grupas 90 tehniskajâs universitâtçs 30 valstîs, tai skaitâ BEST grupu Rîgas Tehniskajâ universitâtç. BEST- Riga ir BEST grupa Latvijâ, kas jau 18 gadus darbojas Rîgas Tehniskajâ universitâtç. BEST-Riga ir 38 RTU studentu grupa, kas brîvprâtîgi rîko ikgadçjâs BEST RTU Inþenieru Sacensîbas, starptautiskus akadçmiskos kursus, apmaiòas programmas, izglîtîbas simpozijus, seminârus un citus pasâkumus (vairâk kâ 10 pasâkumus gadâ), kas paredzçti tehnisko studentu izaugsmei. Kopð 2006. gada BEST-Riga ir pieðíirts Sabiedriskâ labuma organizâcijas statuss. 2010. gadâ BEST-Riga kïuva par Kârïa Lielâs Balvas Jaunatnei nacionâlajiem laureâtiem, iegûstot iespçju prezentçt savu organizçto 2009.gada vasaras kursu projektu Eiropas Parlamentâ.

Kâpçc mçs to darâm?

Viens no galvenajiem nosacîjumiem, lai ikviens RTU students varçtu izmantot iespçju kïût par dalîbnieku, kâdos citu BEST pârstâvniecîbu organizçtajos bezmaksas kursos, ir pavisam vienkâršs: BEST Riga ir jâorganizç akadçmiskie kursi vismaz vienreiz gadâ, sniedzot iespçju uz Latviju atbraukt citu Eiropas tehnisko universitâšu studentiem un apgût papildus zinâšanas. Akadçmisko kursu rîkoðana mums - BEST-Riga - nav tikai uzdevums, kas jâizpilda, jo tas ir liels izaicinâjums. Jâpiemin, ka lielai daïai kursu organizatoru ðî bija pirmâ pieredze tik liela mçroga projekta îstenoðamâ, kuru noteikti varçs izmantot ne tikai organizâcijas ietvaros. Uzskatâm, ka mûsu alga ir pieredze, ko gûstam—tâ ir visvçrtîgâkâ, savukârt vislielâko gandarîjumu sniedz mûsu vienaudþu—kursu dalîbnieku—atzinîgie vârdi par to, ka ðîs ir bijuðas 14 neaizmirstamas dienas viòu dzîvç! Lielâkâ daïa BEST-Riga biedru—RTU studenti— pirms pievienošanâs organizâcijai ir bijuši dalîbnieki citu BEST pârstâvniecîbu rîkotajos kursos. Tâ ir vçlme sniegt arî citiem studentiem lîdzîgu pieredzi. Atrodoties vienam pašam ârzemçs un piedaloties kursos, kopâ pavadîtais laiks šíiet ir bijis krietni ilgâks par 14 dienâm. Studenti no citâm valstîm ir kïuvuši par ïoti labiem draugiem un redzesloks ir paplašinâjies.

Mçs esam jauni. Mçs mâcâmies. Mçs mçdzam kïûdîties. Mçs analizçjam. Mçs novçrtçjam ik katru labo vârdu un arî kritiku. Mçs esam dziïi pateicîgi tiem, kas mums tic un ïauj îstenot idejas. Mçs esam mçrítiecîgi un atvçrti jaunâm idejâm! Kâpçc mçs to darâm? Jo mums tas patîk! Un mçs zinâm, ka tas ir vajadzîgs!

Interesanti fakti: 2011. gada vasaras sezonâ uz BEST kursiem kâdâ no Eiropas BEST pârstâvniecîbâm pieteicâs 102 RTU studenti

treesBEC - INTO THE WOODS praktiskajiem kursiem bija pieteikušies 89 citu valstu studenti

Pçc visu iesniegto motivâcijas vçstuïu un atbilžu uz papildjautâjumiem izvçrtçšanas, kursu organizatori izvçlçjâs 24 labâko pieteikumu iesniedzçjus

Kursu dalîbnieki pârstâvçja 17 Eiropas vastis, 21 daþâdu universitâti

Kursi bija vienlîdz liels izaicinâjums kâ kursu pasniedzçjiem, tâ organizatoriem un to dalîbniekiem, jo tie apvienoja daþâdus studentus ar atðíirîgâm mentalitâtçm, tradîcijâm, zinâðanâm, pieredzi un izglîtîbu. Kursu dalîbnieki kopâ pavadîja 14 pieredzes bagâtas dienas, kuru laikâ ieguva nenovçrtçjamas zinâðanas un pieredzi par kokapstrâdes procesiem, zaïu dzîvesveidu, dabu, nostiprinâja savas angïu valodas un komunikâciju prasmes, piedzîvoja vçl nebijuðas emocijas un ieguva jaunus draugus no visas Eiropas.

Ðie kursi deva iespçju konstruçt reâlu vides objektu – tensegrity, sareþìîtu modeli, kas tika bûvçts izmantojot apaïkoka mietus, risinâja uzòçmumu dotas problçmsituâcijas, doties kompâniju vizîtçs, piedalîties debatçs un iepazît Latviju un tâs kultûru.

1. dienaIerodas dalîbnieki. BEST Riga biedri viens pçc otra dodas uz lidostu vai autoostu, kursagaida kursu dalîbniekus. Daþi ir kautrîgi, daþi vçl samulsuði, taèu daþi jau smejas unrâda trikus vietçjiem. Ierodamies viesnîcâ „Placis“ un maigi rozâ krâsas aukstâ zupa jau ir galdâ.

2.dienaOficiâlâ pasâkuma atklâðanas diena. Joprojâm daudzu dalîbnieku sejâs valda neziòapar turpmâkajâm dienâm. Kâ bûs? Vai cilvçki man apkârt bûs pietiekami atvçrti?Kâdi bûs organizatori? Un te jau pirmais saliedçðanâs pasâkums City rally, kura laikâikviens iepazîst skaisto pilsçtu un nejauði nonâk Íîpsalâ, kur visi izpilda team buildingtreniòu. Viòiem patîk.

Ester Quintana (Spânija)

In general, I can tell that my first BEST experience has been a step forward in many aspects of my life. I have learnt a lot about Latvian culture, its history and its people, and I have had the chance of meeting students of engineering from different countries, which was enriching as well. Working in teams for the different tasks and enjoying together in the social activities let me improve my communication skills and practice my English.

Great part of this summer course we were living and working in Vienkoèu Park, completely surrounded by nature. The landscapes and the atmosphere during that week were simply amazing. Working together in a big project was a great experience. Never before I had heard the word “tensegrity”, so I learnt something new and maybe this knowledge can be useful in the future. Under the rain, the task was even more difficult but the effort of the group was finally a success.

The case studies were a good way to put in practice our knowledge in different topics. In my opinion, the fact that we had to solve real problems and not hypothetical situations was the most interesting part, so the solutions we had to give needed to be perfectly available and useful.

The company visits organized in this event were also quite interesting. Latvia is a forest country and the different companies visited works in different aspects of this idea: forest products industries: plywood and paper mills; forest management with recreational purposes; forest research institute...I enjoyed all of them and I learnt also different methods and ways of working to compare with similar companies in my country.

In conclusion, I would like to say that this summer course in Latvia has been such an exciting and amazing experience that I'll never forget it.

Frank Blanning (Grieíija)

On this event we had an introduction about tensegrity. It was something totally new and interesting. Vienko?u parks was a beautiful place to be. With a very very rich insect ecosystem and green landscape, the exhibitions of the park were in total harmony with their surroundings. The people that hosted us were very friendly and I thank them for allowing us to spend half of out event on their park.

Lîgatnes papîrfabrika was ?lled with memories of older times. The tour of the factory was very thorough, we basically learned everything there is to know about paper recycling, and we had time to explore the factory and ask more questions, that were always answered with a smile. It was my favorîte company visit.

The company visit at Veolia came as a surprise to me since I didn't know what to expect. But the case study that took place there was the most fruitful of the event. We had an actual problem of the company, a problem that they needed assistance solving, and we in the end got somewhere. We presented an idea that they hadn't come up with. I honestly thing we made some good, and that we took one of the many steps needed to make Latvia a better place to live.

Latvijas finieris's company visit was very professional. It gave us an in depth view of the complicated process of making plywood. We got to see every part of the factory from the pealing of the tree trunks to the lamination and storage. Overall we all got all the basic, and in some cases, detailed practical knowledge about plywood that we can use in out line of work.

Our case study with Latvijas valsts meþi got us really thinking about forests that are endangered by urban environments. Again it was a real issue that we had to look in to and since everyone got the chance to listen at what everyone had to say we gained spherical point of view on the subject that would be impossible to obtain otherwise.

This event was my ?st BEST event, and great that it was, I feel it was just a welcoming party to a wonderful family called Board of European Students of Technology.
