Changes to your study program


Hello Everyone

This blog i going to write about the changes i would like make in my career and study program.
In first place i going to speak about my career. I study sociology and this career work about the organization and analysis of society, this mainly from theory and statistics.
One of the main things to change, has to be the little connection of the race with society, that is, practical work. It is also necessary to integrate new notions about new social theories, without having to ignore classical theory, but complementing it.
It is also necessary to teach new methods and statistical programs. When I entered the career, only two statistical programs were taught and one of them has a very expensive license for what is uncommon to occupy in working life.
Regard the duration of work, unlike other careers, it is short for the amount of material necessary to see. The academic load is high. Each test means a large amount of material to be read and statistics works long hours viewing databases.
One of the most interesting things in the career are the research and teaching methodologies.
The different electives that one can take are different tools to teach. For example, the elective of "rural sociology" helped us to work on participatory teachings with the peasant communities of San Vicente de Tagua Tagua. In other experience i remember a subject named "TIAP" in this subject i learned about the "participatory action theory", a revolutionariy method of teaching and knowledge generate

English language challenges

Hello everybody! Today we have to write our last post. Learning english is something that has been very difficult for me my entire life. When I was a little kid, I didn't have english classes very often, so I didn't have a good base. When I was in middle school, I had the chance to choose between french and english, and in that ocation, I choose french. So I have never been constant in the learning process. Then, at the university, the experience has been very good, the use of the blogs is a good tool to practice every week. And the topics have been very intersting every week.  The ascpects that I have to imrpove are grammatical and the talkins skills. I get nervous sometimes when I have to talk in english with other people. I have been working in this by practicing with my girlfriend, who has a lot of patience and is always trying to help me.  I have been using english when I practice with my girlfriend and we start playing and trying to use it in the regular days.

My little story

Hello.  My name is Francisco Saba Catalan. I was born in Santiago, in the hospital Paula Jaraquemada, in 1996.I grew up in the quiet “Maestranza San Eugenio” neighbourhood, whit my mom and dad. I studied in 3 colleges in my life. First, Saint Paul School, after in “Oratorio Don Bosco” and finally in Instituto Nacional. In the last school I was able to develop my personality in two big slopes: poetry and politics. Somehow, the last one, marked the development of my life. When I was 4 years old, I learnt to read and this delineated my primary interests. I used to go 3 or 4 days of the week to the public library with my mom. I also remember that I used to swim with my dad in the Universidad de Chile's pool, but I don’t remember much more about this because it was when I was a little kid, but I can feel my children´s happiness. Probably this period was the most beautiful in my short life. In 2013 I became a president of my school. I remember that time as sweet and sour, and as a ...

My future job

Hello class! Today I want to talk about the job that I hope to have in the future. Currently, I'm in my last year of Sociology. When I first started this career I wanted to focus in Economy, for that reason, I hope to study a master in economy as soon as I finish my career. After this, I want to work in the congress or in a study center or a thinktank. The next semester I have to do my professional practice and I'm going to do it in the congress working with a deputy in the area of public politics. This will be a great opportunity to start learning how this area works considering that this is what I want to do when I finish the career. I would love to work in the organization of a historical archive, colaborating in a library or a public archive. This is important to me because my firts professional job was in this area and I enjoyed it because I learnt a lot about the importance of the sharing of the knowledge with the younger generations. The only problem with this is that ...
