How to be "Team Human" in the digital future





Hi everyone! now I´m going to talk about of the video we saw in the class. To begin, in the video we saw to Douglas Rushkoff that he spoke about the human future in relation to technological development and the digital age. Also he said that technology is at the service of the market, because it serves to generate information and influence the decisions of the people. The caught my attention, because my career (Sociology) helps to generate that information about people and their interests, and I would not like my career to serve for the objectives of capitalism. 

Also in the video Douglas Rushkoff spoke the technology makes us more individualistic, that social networks are separating us and that education makes us more competitive. I Think those are the main ideas of Douglas Rushkoff. In addition, he spoke that technology controls us, and that the humanity should reconnect and collaborate to build a better future for all. 

I agree with Rushkoff that the technology has proven negative effects on the people. But I think that technology is a tool, and as a tool is not the main cause of all the problems mentioned. We have to take charge of the responsibility that we have in the increase of individualism, in communication,  and competition.

1)What is your opinion about the legalization of abortion in the 3 cases? I gree whith the legalization of the abortion in the 3 cases. Nonetheless, I think the abortion it has to be without any restriction, because obiously  the women own their body, and the women should can decide if want to have a baby or not. I think the motherhood is a decision, not an obligation. The feminist movement fight for the motherhood be a decision and is wonderful. 2) What is your opinion about the Chilean politicians? I think the Chilean politicians don´t have ideology, they say to people like to listen and that I don´t like that. I would like they have conventions, and they worry for the people in the condition of vulnerability for build a best country, but now the Chilean politicians only want money. 3) What is your opinion about buying instead of adopting pets?

MY STUDY PROGRAMME

I everyone  today I´m going to talk about the changes to my study programe. In the first place, I need to say that I´m stodying sociology  and I would change the time the race lasts. My career lasts 5 years and I think that is too long, I would that my career last 3 years. I think they should eliminate many courses that are at the beginning of the race as anthropology , psychology or philosophy. I also think that they should incorporate more courses on feminism because it is necessary in order to build a society with greater gender equity.In the same way, I think my career should incorporate more reading about women writers. In addition, to incorporating more course on statistics because the statistics are very important to obtain jobs with good remunerations, and to be able to carry out investigations that are legitimate for the academy.  Another important element that I would like to change is the organization of the dates of the evaluations, espe...

My best Holidays

Hi everyone I'm going to talk about my holidays in "Villarica". I went to "Villarica" in 2013 with my family (my fathers and two brothers) and my pet ( my pet is a big dog, so was complicated to travel with her, in the car). We went for seven days, we stay in a  beautiful cabin, and we had a good time in this place. "Villarica" have a lot of types of extreme sport, who rafting or skydiving, and with my family tried to make them. But we didn´t make all extreme sport because of the "Villarica" is so expensive. Anyway, the travel to "Villarica" was funny because we stay all together, with my family ate a lot, we laughed, and we can enjoy the beaches and rivers of "Villarica". Other relevant information is that "Villarica" have the "Volcán Villarica" that is amazing, is a thing bigger than I´ve seen never and there are tours to see it up close. The day that we back to Santiago was so sad ...
