BLOG 9: CHANGES TO MY STUDY PROGRAMME


My current career is social work and as a career in social sciences it has a very broad curriculum and allows me to access the range of disciplines of a social nature such as sociology, psychology, philosophy, economics, statistics, history, research methodology, this is not It means that the disciplinary training is of low quality, but if it generates a type of "rigid" education in which it is not allowed to choose based on people's interest, I would like to be able to study gender in 1 year, but I have it in 4 years. we need more freedoms now. The academic load is difficult and extensive because it means not only participating / attending classes, but also reading texts, researching and evaluating the content, I do not even know if the academic load really helps timely learning (we must acquire knowledge, not memorization). My study plan lasts 5 years (or more) in general, which bothers me because in Europe it is only 3 years of bachelor's degree. The faculty facilities are mostly acceptable (we have toilet paper in the bathrooms) but in the same way, the money that is personally invested in the fees does not correspond to the "service" that is provided in return. I think the use of technology is fine and they are always implementing new technologies in the corresponding spaces.

 University teaching difficult to describe ... Mainly very academic and I believe that the absence of a concrete practice of this knowledge does not allow us to motivate our study spaces.

    I think very similar in terms of academic load and learning and I find it worrying that social work has a very academic teaching without much practice

    I also don't like that the race is so academic and little practice.

    I agree that the amount of readings not always help us learn. And I didn't know that in Europe it was only 3 years, it would be great if it was like that here

Recommended Movie

Considering the murder of George Floyd in the United States and the tension that implies, I recommend La Haine, a French film by director Mathieu Kassovitz from 1995 that portrays in 24 hours the result of 3 young French people of Arab, African and Jewish origin those who live and are victims of poverty, marginality and the least friendly face of French society, and this becomes visible when the murder of a young Arab occurs within his neighborhood in the midst of a social protest at the hands of violence Police and how to find a police weapon that was reported lost during the revolt will increase the sense of revenge against the police. La haine is a cult film that you should see once in your life, because it deeply questions you, allows you to think and achieve a deeply anthropological vision of what is happening in the poor neighborhoods of France and you could even pull the trigger yourself. The film is recorded in black and white (very beautiful) but especially the soundtra...

Blog N° 2

Hello everyone!  When I was a child in my school they asked me what I wanted to do when I grew up, I always responded in the same way I wanted to be president of my country because it was a position that required leadership and responsibility and I felt capable of doing so. Finally I began to study a career related to the social sciences and something distant from my original desire, but who knows if maybe one day my dream will come true? When apply to the university apply for  social work , political sciences and anthropology.  I finally decided for social work because I wanted a discipline that allowed me to understand social phenomena and at the same time put this knowledge into practice in a concrete solution for people. My experience in the university has been quite good, I have met very good and cheerful people. I have also learned a lot. My dream jobs would be one where you can travel a lot and meet a large number of people from different parts of the ...

My favorite piece of technology / Blog N° 3

What it is?  Although it is a common response, my favorite piece of technology is the telephone. When you got it?  I have had my current phone about 1 year ago. How you use it?  I use my phone in almost everything! to watch movies, documentaries, search for academic information, etc. How often you use it?  I use my phone very often, almost every day because every day I have a new curiosity to look for! Why you like it?  I like it because it is practical and light. It also includes many functions in one device! it's really great. What life would be like without it?  I think I could really live without my phone, but as you all know, we live in a highly connected society where practically if I didn't have a phone I would live on a desert island in the middle of the sea. Therefore, a large part of the fact that I occupy a telephone so recurrently lies in how contemporary society has been developing over time.
