My Career; Anthropology

Imagen
Hello again, today I will talk to you why I chosse my programme carrear. when I was a kid, I wanted to be a fire woman, because   I have always liked the action, but also I like to play with dirt.  However, the first idea changes with the time, and I wanted to be a agronomist, because the plants and the earth it was my passion. None   of this happened. Then, when I was in high school, I didn´t know what I wanted to study, so I chose the programme that included the study of the society, and my options were social work, sociology, and psycology. Finally I chose Antropology with mention in Archaeology, because I liked to study the past society through the different lines of evidences available, like a propetty, lithics or rock art, and I can mix it with my girl games, because the archaeological practices takes place in the field, when excavate the earth, and found cultural materials, like the projectile point in the picture. This career attracted me, because I ...

The Country I wouldlike to visit

Imagen
The country that I would like visit is Noruega, because the aurora borealis a phenomenon that i have to know before I died jaja. I don't know so much of the culture or system political of the country, because it only a dream and maybe when i work in the future and I can save money for the travel, I will investigate more of the country, for now only I know is that the weather is cold,and that they have one of the most good education systems of the wourld. If I can ever travel to Norway, I will try to stay there for at least one year. And maybe I can also study or just work in some institution that develops archeology, because this part of the world, as everyone knows by the Vikings series, had a great development of past cultures and would be entertaining for me to understand and learn more about this culture .

The Best Holidays

The Best Holidays My best Holidays was when I was 19 years ago, because I traveled to Chile Chico, this rural town is it the most beautiful place that I know. Because, is a mixed of warm and rainy weather. For example in the same day, you can enjoy both types of climates, and this change influency the colour lake General Carrera. So sometimes the lake see more blue, when the sun sunshine, but when rain, the colour is more calypso. Although I stay for a short time, about one week, was enough for know the place iconics, like parque Jeinimeni or the walk of the wind, the old cemetery, and also I had the posibility to go to Los Antiguos, the next ruraltwon in Argentina because the distance between these place is less that 20 km. So whit my boyfriend and my friend Bruno we paid the rent of three bike, and gone to Los Antiguos. It took us 5 hours to go and return. These were the best vacations because it's the cutest and inexpensive place I´ve even met,

Your opinion about the use of blogs in the English class

My opinion about the use of blogs in the English class Hi again, today I will let you know my opinion about the blogs we wrote to pass the English 3 course. I believe that knowing English is a good tool to be able to relate and develop more completely in our study programs, however, the way in which we are taught the contents is not always good. For example, now we have to write blogs with different topics, but none of these has allowed me to better understand a scientific paper related to my career, because there are many technical words that through bolgs are not exercised, and when reading to do work or to elaborate our thesis, we have to resort to translation in programs that do not always keep the real meaning of the words and we lose the original information of the article. However, it also has its advantages, because it allows us to better understand the grammar and exercise vocabulary, as well as dare to write more than one sentence in English and post-quo...

Students' manifestations and tomas

Students' manifestations and tomas. In the last time, Chile has become a country where a series of political manifest are evident. For example, one of the most important has been education, which is transversal to all educational programs, from basic to university education. One of the main mottos of this demonstration is the demand for free and quality education, because there are many differences between a private education where you pay for it and a public education where there are no good educational standards. Because of this, many education centers carry out strikes as a form of protests. Now, the movement has resurged, but from another point of view, feminism. Where it seeks to make visible many issue, such as abuse of power and sexual abuse of students and teachers. So, in my opinion we all have to be part of these manifestations, because they show cultural problems of which we are all parties, it is not only the role of women to be part of the...

Santiago

Santiago from my study program's point of view For most people Santiago was founded with Pedro de Valdivia in 1541, and since then, it has only been a great city that every day has more buildings and shelter more and more people, becoming the most populated city in Chile. However, from our perspective, the history of Santiago begins many years before, as well as that of many other places. Many investigations have shown evidence of different prehispanic cultural groups, for example in the high mountain range, specifically in the Cajón del Maipo, there is evidence of hunter-gatherers, who were characterized by having a great handling of lithic artifacts and hunting animals for their survival. Other cultural groups are Bato, llolleo and Aconcagua, who cultivated veggies and produced their own pottery. Therefore, through archeology, it can be said that Santiago has a great history, which goes beyond what we know so far, and there are many archaeological sites th...
