English language challenges

Learning English at the University has been very useful for me, since I came with a terrible base from my school, although I really liked the language, so I only learned by listening and singing music in English, as well as watching movies and videos also in the same language, so I found it necessary to be able to learn more theoretically in the university.

The aspects of my English that should be improved I think are the pronunciation and the choice and proper use of the lexical resources of English. I think the best way to improve these points is in practice and speaking in everyday life in English, since currently I did not do much except to watch movies, songs and videos.

My experience doing weekly blogs has been very good because I have been so surprised by my creative writing abilities, like those of my colleagues, and this is what I like about the blogs, the great ideas that I can, and we have been able to reach to have to then add into our websites, with funny stories, sad, reflective etc, which was nice to get to read every Monday, to make comments (although a little stereotyped), which by the way i always read and tried to answer. It is for this last that the "concept" behind the blogs was quite "cute" for the highly positive comments that we all received from each other.

I had never written post in English before, but it seems to me something very creative to put into practice our skills, it is a good way to teach English, so that besides learning about this language we can interact with each other in a way closer to the current reality , although to make it more realistic I would allow all kinds of comments on blogs, of those that one does with friends, if you know what I mean 😉

This will be my last blog, and, although it is not the best I have done, I see it with a lot of affection since it is the last time that I will express myself through this platform. Goodbye audience 😊

Changes to my study programme

Hello classmates, today's class I talk you about my opinion of my career, psychology, among the points I would like to touch are: the curricular Maya, the work and duration of studies, use of technology and teaching methods.

In the first place, regarding the curricular Maya, I believe that I find it appropriate, and that the academic load is well organized with respect to which order we should learn each subjet, as what philosophy should be before epistemology, and these two before theory and systems. The only problem that I believe has the curricular may of my career is that I think that the professional practice should be before the 5th year, since this year is very overloaded with the examination of title and thesis.

The second point, regarding the work and the duration of the studies I think they are at a very adequate level to be able to train as professionals; their requirement is rather necessary and not excessive.

Regarding the use of technology in the psychology degree, I think it is a little low, since we do not have so many technological tools for studying, and could go deeper to teach us about the existence of technological mechanisms for various experiments that occur abroad

With regard to teaching methods I think that if it is correct, although it could be much better in some cases, since it can happen that teachers are not motivators and give classes that are usually less encouraging than they really are.

Despite all this I want to add that I love my career and I do not regret anything that I chose, since I fall in love every day and with every reading for my university education.

Personal Opinions

Hello colleagues, today I will give you my opinion as argued as possible regarding several contingent issues of our society.

What is my opinion about child labor? Today, when we all believed that slavery had been definitively eradicated from the world we inhabit, we can see that millions of children every day perform tasks that are even dangerous for their health and for their lives for which neither rights nor freedoms exist, they are in an absolute situation of slavery. In this sense, it seems terrible to me that in so many countries, whole generations of cheap labor are being used, very cheap, silent and silenced. Children who work not only in illegal situations, but also unhealthy and degrading that dynamit their options for the future and their dignity.

What is my opinion about violence on television? I believe that television can be a very powerful influence in the development of children in the formation of character and behavior, since many of the television programs contain a high degree of violence, and can be imitated, introjected, generating a kind of "immunity" to the horror of violence; and Gradually generating an acceptance of violence as a way to solve problems.

What is my opinion about legalizing marihuana? Personally I think that marijuana itself is a substance that must be approved for legal consumption, both in a therapeutic way since it has been demonstrated and recognized its effectiveness and improvement of health in some diseases, as well as recreationally, which is where there is more controversy because the prohibition of marketing and cultivation of marijuana, this produces a black market (or drug trafficking) which generates a greater expense of the state in persecuting these producers of the "soft drug", that all this to Unlike the nicotine-containing cigarette, marihuana does not generate high levels of dependence.

What is my opinion about legalizing abortion in some cases? I believe that penalizing abortion affects, restricts and violates the fundamental human rights of girls, adolescents and women, since it induces them to resort to unsafe and risky abortion methods for their integrity, has a differentiated impact on poor and young women, exposes them to institutional violence, and it feeds a millionaire and clandestine market of abortions, that is why I am in favor of the legalization of abortion in all cases.
