  A subject you’ve enjoyed studying this semester This semester I really liked the Economics classes, since it is a very interesting and entertaining subject. It is the second time I have seen this subject because I had Economics 1 last semester where I finished with good grades. The teacher's name is Felipe, he teaches excellent and is very nice. The classes are very dynamic, we see the different schools of economics and their founders such as, for example, Marxist or feminist economics, we also see the definitions of the market, welfare, development, etc. and we reflect on different graphics that help us to understand even more the Chilean reality and the world. Due to the online mode, some classes are in real time and others are recorded in advance. This course has helped me a lot because I always thought that economics was boring and that it only had to do with mathematics and money, it was a great pleasure to discover that it is more than that, also It has helped to have many ...

  A Photography you like I took this photograph with my cell phone in a social protest in January 2020, one of the many that came after the social outbreak that occurred on October 18, 2019, where after days of massive evasions in the Santiago metro due to the increase in 30 pesos in public transport, with only a response of repression from the government, ended with a popular uprising throughout the territory for years of economic, political and social inequality. This photograph was taken when the protests were still massive since the pandemic was not yet, it was near the Plaza de la Dignidad (former Plaza Italia), you can see the smoke from the barricades, the Chilean flag and the Mapuche flag. I really like this photo because it shows the union, courage and hope of all the people who took to the streets to ask for a more dignified and just Chile for all.

  Write about a career-related website that you enjoy visiting A website related to the career of Social Work that I like to visit is "Epistemology of Social Sciences", link: https://epistemologias.com/ which deals with the subject Epistemology of Social Sciences, studied in the second year of Social work of the University of Chile. This page was created by professor Teresa Matus and the assistants of this subject Ignacio Neira and Estefanía Vilches. The website teaches you the subject in a didactic way; there are videos, pictures, music, books, movies, etc. It is divided into 5 sections; the start, the authors guide, the study guide, the resources and the information about the project.  It tells you about different authors, for example, Descartes, Hume, Kant, Hegel and others, and it also tells you about the different moments and scenarios that were important for epistemology. I used it constantly last semester, every day when the evaluations approached hahaha since it helpe...

   My favorite piece of technology My favorite technology is the cell phone since with it I can be connected with the whole world. I have had a cell phone since I was 11 years old but it started to matter to me since I was 15 years old since I was older and I became more interested in technology. With my cell phone I do my work, take photos, listen to music, watch movies, read books, research interesting things and watch social networks, I use it every day, although from time to time I turn it off so as not to get distracted when I do something important. I like it because it is multipurpose and didactic. If I didn't have it, I know that my life would be more difficult and boring jajjjaja since I would have no way of knowing about the world and I would not be able to communicate easily with people, also it happened to me last year that I had one in bad condition so I knew there how difficult it would be to live without it.

Why did you choose this career/study programme?  When I was a child I wanted to be a veterinarian because I liked animals very much, but I was sad to see them suffer, I also dreamed of being a firefighter or a history teacher since I always liked this subject a lot. The idea of ​​studying history remained for many years, but finally when I applied to university, I just wanted to be a Social Worker because it was the career that most caught my attention and the one that most closely resembled my personality and my tastes, I love to help to people, fight against social injustices and ensure human rights. And I do not regret my decision, I love this career, I have read interesting things, I have learned many things and I met incredible people. I'm just in my second year, but I would love to work in populations with youth and children.
