May 13 ....Presentation


... Today a group of classmates did their presentation.... about troubled teenagers...

It was a good presentation even they could not present the video they had prepared..... Sometimes aids don´t work and you have to continue .... you must keep going... otherwise your presentation seems to be based only in the audiovisual material you had......

... Then we went to the computer lab to visit http://www.educarchile.cl/, the idea was to see the english version.... but I think that the page was not very helpful for students or teachers that are interested in visiting some more links.... I think the english version is very poor, and it should be as the spanish one, so people from all over the world can visit it........

...Schools and Videocameras....


I forgot exacticly when was this... I now it was in may.... but we went down to the computer lab and we surfed on http://www.latercera.cl/. The idea was to read an article about video cameras in school to let parents know what their kids do while they are studying....

I think this is too much....... I mean ... as parents we want to prevent bad experiences , bad things , fights, among other things , but we are not letting our children to live life.......

We can ask them if they have a problem at school or if they didn´t , but they also need privacy.... They need to face things by themselves...... It is not normal being controlled the during the whole day..... children need experiences to ripe.... if they do not live life how are they going to learn about life............

I think we are becoming more and more fearful.... we want to have our belove ones inside a bubble.... and that doesn´t help them to face reality.......

....LiFe.....

Well in may 12th we watched a video called Life..... In this video you could see God creating the world..... but then you can see how men, and of course women, did not appreciate what we have recieved from our God.......
You can see God troubled... it is hard for him to understand how these beautiful creatures he gave life to suddenly became selfish and ungrateful...... God saw how the world has become surrounded by pain.... hopeless.... selfish and hate......
I really enjoyed this video.... because it made me think on what have we become in the last years.......

.... Missed the Class!!!!!!!!!!


I did not come to class this day.... but my classmates told me that they went to the computer lab to look for a poll about LGE...... they had to translate the poll and then mister L. asked them to tranlate some parts into english..... some of the students felt embarassed because they are afraid of making a mistake........
