How is learn in a technological time?




In this time of the human history, maybe we can say that we live in a technological period or -maybe is better say that- in a digital period. Everything have been touched for the machine, is almost impossible that we try of the resist it, because the machine we intertwine. The question so is how we thinking use it, not if use it or not use it. So how we use the technology in the university? The technology is a tool for help to the teacher or is a replacement at the teacher in our digital period?

The technology can help in the learning. For example one blog in the English class involve that the student must take one continues practice, with verifiable progress, where, besides, is possible apply other learning related with your career or with your interest. This kind of technological application can put in play your critical vision about different aspect, not only your competition in a language

Some things are easier with the technology for the student and also for the teacher, for example the email. With the email the contact or keep to the contact is more easy and the through of the information about to the class is more quickly and efficient.

Besides, to know to apply the technology in the future profession can be always a plus, in our career for example when we have a work in a museum can have a technological registration with the work made and that can be a part of the curriculum or part of the other future work

But, therefore, in none moment the technology can replace the work of the teacher, the technology is only a tool that can help you. But the learning person to person, is the true learning. Is impossible that with a machine we can have a real and complete learning, because with a machine is impossible the dialogue. In the university the technology is important and maybe is more easy everything with it, but the technology not apply, and neither learning, the professional ethic.

This post is almost the last post, and I will talk about one blog of my classmates. My blog chosen is the clauvalentina.blogspot.com. In general I like the blogs of my classmates but if I chose the Claudia´s blog is because I believe that is very friendly, very relaxed and without many pretentions and that I think is –for one part- good. I don´t know at Claudia really but I think that the characteristic of her blog are very similar at the characteristic that she have, for that I say that her blog is without pretentions, because is only she not other things. Well, maybe it´s possible that all the blogs can have some of the people who write them, but in claudia´s blog I think that is more clear.

My prefer post where she talk about her prefer disc, the name of this blog is “luna de día”. I like it because I don´t know “mil jinetes” and neither the “futher muckers” and now, thanks to this blog I like very much, in fact I download one disc of this group. Also I like the post where she speaks about the birthday of her son, because I think that is a situation very important and of the personal affect so is cute that have was in the class´s blog.
Maybe she must to correct grammatical things in her English for that her blogs can be better and clearer, but is only practice, but in general I like the ideas that she explained in her blog.
Well I recommend the claudia´s blog

This is a most difficult post. I must to choose one important Chilean persons, but important in what… that is the questions. I believe that one important person for Chile in the last time have been Michelle “la presi” Bachelet. Well the obviously is because she is the first woman president in Chile. But I think that if we talk about her as persons and not only in her politic decisions, the most important maybe not is that she have been a woman, but, that she have been a single woman, with children of different men and with one past very heavy for the dictatorship.

That she have been chosen for be a president in a conservative country is important for Chile I think, one landmark. Not is very common that the women to take one important space politic, the politic –as almost all- are very sexist. Her politic way was very criticize, maybe, not only for her politic decision, but, for not be as a men. The power is identify with establish forms, practice it of the others way is many times considering synonym of weakness.

Her government not was a better I now, but I believe that she generate determinates changes, even protocol changes, from as give the welcome in a ceremony until not have a first “damo”. Always I think that the role the couple of the president is very tedious and unnecessary.
Who could be a next women president in Chile? Carolina Toha? JA. Maybe, a women president in Chile was as one mistake that confirm the ruler that the politics or the visible politics is yet only for men.

If I didn´t study theory and history of art I think that I would like study maybe some as sociology because when I was in the school it was a possibility (but my first option always was theory). Other career that I have thought is the pedagogy. Before, in the school my signature favorite was the language so I would have liked study pedagogy in language. But now in the university I have discovered that I like very much the history, so I would like study pedagogy in history, besides as today study pedagogy is free… ajajja but it is other matter.

Well if I think as dreaming I would have liked study music, but i´m the worst in the music!!!!! Is frustrated dreams I don´t have rhythm, but nothing. With many lucky in the school I played the flute – and with many effort -. Well, also is true that the school influence too much, so my justification could be that in my school they don´t foster my ( very very) hidden talent. I could be a great musician in this moment… or not?

I like the discipline of the musician, and in his majority they appear as persons very passionate and that is very attractive. I remember a film that I believe its name was claro-oscuro. The film was about a pianist schizophrenic (but is not the Chilean film “Fuga” with Benjamin Vicuña) and I don´t know if I don´t remember or never I have had clear if the music save of the protagonist or the music is the element that to give crazy to the protagonist. But I suppose that the passions there are a little of the both parts.

Questions:
If you don´t study your current career. What will be your profession?
What is your career dreams, and why?
What is the reason for that your current career don´t be your dreams career?

Perfect job

I believe that historically the job have been related with a level of the suffering, there is a idea, maybe in the collective unconscious, one job not suffered not is job, for that maybe the art is sometimes as a play for the society, because the art not involve –in its majority- those characteristic that make unhappy people, for example, the routine, the automatism…. Well also I know that all artistic work in general it involves one high cost: the instability, and many times this bring suffering. But personally I prefer the instability and don´t have one life exploited or losing in the routine.

Obviously, my perfect job (if I don´t dream too much) will be one related with my career because I really like it, but I know that is difficult that we can live of the theory of art, or the history of art but is not impossible, neither can to live GOOD. I want to live good, not suffering (or not too much) I don´t want rich, but I would like live calm.

I would like have a job where my ideas or my ideologies didn´t have been traded. Those will be a perfect job for me. Well… where I could found this job is the point, but I believe that in our career we can chose maybe more that in other because we can going building our own field study and in my opinion this is a important plus, but also one risk.

Well anyway, my favorite field study inside the theory and history of art is the writing is where I feel happier, and I suppose that in definitive the perfect job is that where you are happy.

The true is that I don´t see myself in the future, neither in the near future, for that is difficult for me to thinking in a job, is very silly I know, because I’m an adult, but I just know the things that I like, and if that could be a job, will be perfect for me.

suicides women


Today I’m going to talk about persons that I would like to meet. Those people are to die, so there is many question that I would like do, because I’m going to talk about the persons that decided die: suicidal persons.
I would like to start with a poet woman, because always I have interested in her lives so suffer as if the only way for can be a good writer is through the suffering. This will be my first question, for example, for Alfonsina Storny or Virginia woolf. Is necessary living suffer for can write? Is true that sometimes the life to put pressure, but there isn´t pleasure in the suffering too?. The lives of the woman write almost always are very intense but short. Why?. Why decide die? Well for that question must be many answer, one for each that decide die.
In the majority of the books where exist a women different or intense too much, or that think to much, they must die. The literature foments this image of the suicide woman. When the write don´t know what can do with a woman extremely complex, he kills her. So what do in the real life those women?.
One case “nearly” in Chile is Viloleta Parra. Violeta why you decided die if you sing thanks for the life?, maybe she was a little advanced for her time so the world can´t with her, not her with the world. I would like to meet with her and not only for make her questions, maybe just for share a moment, listening to music her music and her poems. Or maybe I would like to show her the current world but maybe her suicide twice!!!!

the perfect day...

if I think in my perfect day, the first thing in my mind is the sun, in a sunny day, i can´t think in a perfect day cloudy, without light... then, i think in some natural place as the beach or the mountain, one place with trees and water, i see myself first alone, but then with my family near: my sisters, my nephew, my niece, my mom and my dad. i don´t have -or i don´t remember- moments with all them

my perfect day must be in a open place or natural place, not only because i like me, Also because i would like that my nephew and my niece could play more free, i believe that with the nature near,the kids are more freedom and brave, and i would like see those characteristic in them (and in me too).

in my perfect day the get dark is with my friends: school friends, university friends and life friends, also, with music -all the music that i like me-, taste food, and conversation, many conversation in the roof terrace look at the city... everything is relaxed, everything is good... i feel so good -as in the song-
but in the night, i would like dancing with bands in live (everything in the roof terrace), dancing with different kinds of music, while, i take some drinks and smoke some cigarette or good grass.

and finally in the daybreak, sleep with the persons that i love, and wake up with sea view...






maybe some day i have a perfect day as this :)

Regards!

PESCADO RABIOSO



i have liked very much this topic for the blog: your favourite songs, because I had that search in my mind, in my pc, in my mp3... I listen too much music in my daily life!!. so what is my favourite songs??? ufff!! I suppose that the music almost always it´s important for periods, but there is a group that always can it captivate me, in anytime: Pescado Rabioso, with -between others important musicians- the cool Luis Alberto Spinetta. I really love his songs in that moment of his musical carrer. first, because the name of group is a great image, one impossible image, and for that very suggestive, and then when you lisen to music of the group you can check it: everything is suggestive not only the name.

In Pescado Rabioso everythings is as poetry, its lyrics are sometimes as indecipherable metaphors that just can leave us with many emotions, for example there are "Starosta el idiota", "dulce tres nocturno" "serpiente viaja por la sal" ... etc. and as you can see, even the names of the songs are a little enigmatic!!!

the voices, and the lyrics of Spinetta and the musical vices with his guitar are very recognizes, he was and is, a milestone for the argentinian rock, and latin american rock. but i don´t remember when was the first time that I lisening his songs, but the first time that i hear his name was in the song "Aun sigo cantando" by "Enanitos Verdes" when they say if you remenber of the flaco Spinetta when he sang "all the leaves are of the wind" ajajajaj is a very romantic songs i don´t like very much really, but i suppose that this songs was the first link with Spinetta when i was a child so is good.
well here there are some links for that you can listen to music by Pescado Rabioso

The Travel


The topic for today is about “the countries” but Is a bit difficult to thinking in only one that I would like to visit for example, because the travel is for me very important in general. I don´t knows many countries but in my mind always have been the idea of the travel, when I think in the future –that is very nebulous- I can´t see myself in this place many times more, but when I was a child I neither see myself in the university because always thought that then of my last years in the school I could travel for to the world, or for south America but of course this never happened. Well maybe that was the dreams of the many childs or not?
I believe that the travel is one necessary experience, but the real travel to living in a place not only as a touristic person, because the real travel it´s learning and for that is knowledge too.
Well we can say too that exist many forms for the travel… I think that there is internal travel too, and in my opinion is ideal that one travel in other place or country can be accompanied for one internal journey.
So I would like visit many and different parts, and can be more nomad, comeback to be a person nomadic as in the origin of the human world. But I think that for that is necessary is a person with very courageous, because can to leave everything must be difficult. But as said in a film – that don´t remember the name- “sometimes is necessary to go to the place that you love for can to find the place that you adore” (“a veces es necesario irse del lugar que quieres para encontar el que amas”). I believe that the name of the film is “the Gringuito” but i´m not sure.
Well it looks that I let go a bit the original topic, but maybe not too much….
So good travel!!!!!!!!

Friday 24 September 2010


In the last time the situation Mapuche have been one topic very important, but not is a bit late? More than 30 persons in hunger strike is too much for can be to listen. The problem about the ancestral land is very old, many times to fight for that the people understand that the Mapuche people not see the land as part of his property, because they are property of the land, maybe this is the point.
The mapuche people have been obliged for to be in a constant situation of war, the kid grow to thinking that the “Chilean people” is foolish -and probably they have a reason- the kid grow to playing of the “paco and mapuche”, it´s very terrible. In that moment we to move away of own our origin?.
I think that the Mapuche not is a terrorist person – or not more terrorist that other persons that today to give them one military justice- I believe that the mapuche is one person that answer, answer to the situation, I don´t agree with the violence but, sometimes looks like necessary and I don´t thinking only in the arms, because in this case the impotence mapuche in the hungry strike is one act of violence too, it´s necessary? Maybe… the other option is follow waiting for a “table dialogue” a little fair, while other peoples to continue die.
For other part with the anti-terrorism law. who don´t is a terrorist? Everybody are suspect, everybody can in some moment to cause terror, is in my opinion a law with many empty is other heritage of the dictatorship, and I doubt that a government of “right” wants to abolish it, considering that the “concertacion” neither do it.
I hope that all can to make up, but is difficult because not is only a problem of the law, is a problem of the conscience.

September


In this opportunity I would like to write about September: what is September for Chile Really? what represent this month?. Well, in my opinion there are two important things until the moment, first, obviously September 18 with its exaggereted nationalism for cause of the Bicentenary, and the September 11 with its silences. I suppose that everybody we are a little tired with everything around the "Bicentenary" topic, because finally: what we celebrate? our history of independence or dependence? two hundred years of what? ... what is that of the "time capsule"? is possible that we put the foolishness in one capsule?.
I don´t understand this event as the great event great really, all is like a performace for show a progress... a debatable progress, because the fact, according with the political "bicentenaria" everythings is good, better and better. If inclusive in these two hundred years of the motherland, we have ours owns heros (not only, Carrera or O´Higgins and his monuments): the Miners. they could have been martyrs of the Bicentenary, but they are Heroes today and this is the point.
so we can say that, the people forgot in the Bicentenary are that that aren´t heroes, the people that not to build the big history and that not is inside of "time capsule". The people forgot is only one spot in the way. For that is important to deny the September 11, to deny the spot and then close the eyes, close the faculties, close the street, close all the places that remember us that not everythings is good, and that in the Bicentenary the last sentences, not always is "viva Chile mierda".
well... Happy September!

The Miners

Well maybe I seems a little obviously if i decided talk about the “miner” how the news more important at the moment. But This news is important for many things. First because I think that this event is only comparable with the tragedy of Antuco, in relation with the negligence by the persons that was in the head. In both cases, the people exposed of the dangerous, not were –obviously- the leaders: military or businessman. I ask myself if these persons had send his sons or brothers for to snow for die, or for work into the mine with risk of pull down, I believe that not.
I´m very impression with all the situation of miner, They are a survivor clear, but too, one political play perfect, for can to keep the attention of the population in one event in specific and to past for high other news that are deciding too in this moment, for example, the historical problem about the education, the Mapuche hunger strike or the to strike of the public workers.
Finally the miner case, in my opinion will be as a reality show, but the real reality show, one spectacle more with cameras, families crying, people to suffer…etc. I believe that there are private things. there is a different between inform and search to give sad, it´s necessary to put limit to the news, to the kind of information that we receive and in the kind of people how give that information.

Fabulosos Cadillacs



In this opportunity I’m going to write about a concert. It is Not the last or neither the best, but is special because was in the other country, so I believe that in that situation everything is a more little special.
It was as in October of the last year in Buenos Aires, I went to see the Fabulosos Cadillacs with a friend “la Pachi”. Don´t was the first time that I see them, but in this opportunity I enjoyed very much because all was very exiting but relax, for example non person to squash me, thing that in Santiago is so usual, in fact, in Buenos Aires I could be sitting and didn´t die in the try or dancing with a space. There were many persons with children or older person too. I like very much that this kind of event can to be for all people, that anybody can enjoy it, it´s really so good. When I will be old people i would like go to concert or all kind of event and have still the capacity for enjoy it.
Well come back to the concert. The support band I liked too, was the “Pericos” and other band that I don´t remember but I suppose that don´t was bad. My favorite songs I believe that is “vasos vacios” but really I like many songs, but I choose this because I have one imagine: the pachi and mE to raise the hands with one unsuspected emotion.
I stay with this imagine and the sensation that all be good.

Education

Well this is my second English blog and i hope that it can be better that the last.

In this opportunity I´m going to talk about the education in Chile, because is a topic very important. Sometimes I think that everything about the education is bad, but is true too that the things can be better, and that should be better. But with the current education minister is very difficult. In my opinion really he don´t understand nothing about the political education, have “well intentions” not is enough for to legislate, is necessary to know.

We see more clear that Lavin don´t understand, when for example, he get out the possibility for that we have one provisory "pase escolar", without considerer the cost high of the bus, I believe that this new political, is almost one steal, without the traditional white arms, but if with the abuse of power.

The businessman never to lost, and today we have one government headline for businessman that little to know about public political, because they only to know about the private sector, the rest is only one little group that is necessary not to educate too much.
