Rate It

Hi everyone,

Today, i'm going to talk you about Lucy Quezada's blog "Lucy in the Sky" i have to warn you that she's not in drugs, the title refers to the beatles's song "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds". Lucy has eight post of many subjects, i like the colour of her posts because she changed them every different post, but about her template i think that is very usual, she should reflect about it (maybe i'm being a little bit overreacted about a class blog, but there are so many cute templater that is kind of weird that Lucy haven't changed her own).
About her post, i have to say that i like the number four, because she talk about a web site very interesting, that i didn't know and is relative to our career, specifically the Art Criticism, since that, i've seen it usually, not tu much, but i do it once a week.

About her english mmmm... i can say that she have to improve his knowledge about conjugation, because her level is good, she can understand something without big problems, and she must be more brave in order to be more confident about her actual english level, that i said again, it's no bad at all.

As to end, i'd like to advise Lucy that she have to be more daring in her texts, she have to dare to make mistakes.

Regards

Hi everyone...


Today i'm going to told you about a picture that i like, a photo from mi facebook.

This picture was took last year by a friend of mine (we were in the last days of semester), we cut Marx's face from a poster of a symposium in Philosophy (the faculty) about his thinking, after we cut it again to made a mask and then, we took many photos with this mask into the university, in diferent places.

In the photo we see a wall that has been scrachted by some people, maybe the "capuchas" from philosophy made it, i don't know but i'm sure that was someone from the university.

I chose this picture because when i saw it for the first time i laughed a lot, i found it very ironical, i mean, Marx next to a wall that says "Fire to the Capital!" is very funny, i'm not quite sure if everyone could say that is funny because sometimes people get fanatical and think that this is a kind of a bad joke, a joke to Marx himself (here, in this university people is very sensitive about Marx).

As well this, i have other pictures with this mask and they're very funny, i appear with other Marx. As title we called "Carloco doing..." (in every photo).

So, I’ve talked too much, see you in the next post guys, I wish you’ve enjoyed the photo. In other opportunity I will show you the other pictures, eventually I’ll do it…

Canonical Education

Today my dear readers, i'm going to speak about Education, particulary about a video where
Sir Ken Robinson told us that schools kills creativity, or at least mined it.
When i saw for the first time this video, i felt that this man could have the answer to our educational sistems, all over the world, nos just Chile, or England, all of them, why?
Because I felt so understood about how I felt around the waste of creativity that we see today in our schools, i saw many times how teachers disapprove students called them "sicks kids" or trouble-makers, when kids doesn't wanted to do some activities that bored them, now i see how much damage they do them...
In my particular case, mathematics were not my business, but for other subjects i had so many habilities that were just wasted, when i was a kind i won some artistic contests that came out of my school or inside of it, but, with time, those skills were ignored because importants subjects were related to mathematics, not arts or literature. Because of my "luck" i've pass mathematics subjects and concern was not important, but the important thing here is that there are so many people talented for "irregular" activities that just lost his skills because they have to focus on subjects that are apparently "hard" for them, but actually are boring and futile for what they think that can do in the future, and eventually they forget "what are they good for".
I think that this problem is serius, we don't see the implications of continuing with our currents educantional sistems, and don't understand the concept of "INTELLIGENCE" in his large meaning, we just see what is more easy to gain.
Now, I left you the video, i forgot it but other blog remind me to do that (i told you about a video, but i didn't refer to it, my bad).
