PICs to find solutions
As part of the Innovation and Creativity Projects (PIC) to be carried out by first-year students at ISAE-SUPAERO, a number of initiatives have been launched in schools in the Toulouse Academy:
- PIC “light pollution” carried out in the Antoine Pons secondary school (Chalabre) and the Mirepoix secondary school. Several explanatory sessions and brainstorming sessions were held to try and find solutions to light pollution in their respective communes, such as switching off certain streetlights in places that are not used in the evening, and running an awareness-raising campaign in the communes.
- Floating wind turbine” PIC offered to a class from Tournefeuille high school. The students were able to learn from their experience how to stabilise the buoyancy of a model wind turbine at sea.
- Greenhouse construction” PIC at Hubertine Auclert secondary school in Toulouse. This project, which began two years ago, was aimed at 4th year students who built a garden in the first year, with the help of students from ISAE-SUPAERO, and then built the greenhouse in the second year. This greenhouse can be used by all secondary school pupils and teachers.

A project to build a wind turbine also took place in the same school with a class of 5th graders. Students from the “SupaeroForEarth” student association at ISAE-SUPAERO accompanied the pupils. See the construction of the mini-wind turbine - PIC “raising awareness of sustainable development” at the Louis Pasteur secondary school in Lavelanet and the Gorge Sand secondary school in Toulouse, with the production of a Fresque du climat game using recycled paper. The youngsters discovered the Climate Fresco game by making the support themselves.
The Climate Fresk: a key awareness-raising tool
The climate fresk is a scientific, collaborative and creative workshop designed to raise awareness of climate change in a fun way. It’s educational, enabling a team to discover in a short space of time how the climate works, and the causes and consequences of climate change.
Taking part in this workshop raises awareness of the complexity of climate change, gives an overview of this vast issue and provides the keys to understanding how to take effective action, both collectively and individually.
6 climate fresks were created in various schools in the Toulouse Academy: Collège Hubertine Auclert (Toulouse), Collège Jean Jaurès (Colomiers), Cité scolaire (Mirepoix), Centre Jean Lagarde (Toulouse), Collège George Sand (Toulouse), Collège Louis Pasteur (Graulhet).
