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

Blog N° 5 (A photograph. Its story)

This photo is from my third birthday in 2004 in the city of Iquique. It's very special for me because they are the most important people in my life, my parents! The party was held at my maternal grandmother's house because our house was too small for all guests to enter! I still remember, despite my age, all the people who came to my birthday, each one of them is still present in my life. I really remember this celebration with love, we all ate cake, we burst the piñata, we danced the songs and the cartoons of 31 minutes. My whole family organized to give me a small but loving party. If you realize that the birthday candle is upside down! Nobody noticed after 15 years, I think this celebration was a very pleasant stage of my life because it was during this time that I saw the sunset in the northern pampas and the infinite Pacific sea! But I think what really makes me love this image is that at this moment my family was complete, nobody was gone :( The photos...

Best Holidays

I have not yet decided what my best holidays have been, I have in mind 2 places separated by almost 2000 kilometers. Actually, I am not going to decide and I will talk about the 2. My 2 best vacations in life, I enjoyed them in the south of Chile and in the city of Arica. In the years 2013 and 2010. Observe approximately 1 month of its precious attractions, its relaxing lifestyle, its architectural beauties, etc. I am from a large and small family, in 2013 there were only my grandparents, me and my cousin, in 2010 about 20 people (very tight in any space). I remember that I did many activities on my vacation like eating too much thinking that the world would end until I became a merchant, I got to know the Chilota culture, I ate seafood in Puerto Montt, I went up to the Morro de Arica and the most incredible of the oldest mummies of the world more than the Egyptian, of about 4000 years: the chinchorro mummies.

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...
