Currently the technologies have taken importance in the development of health, politics and education, because in different environments where the people develop they have to use and work with them, the implementation of technology is embedded in the globalization process occurring today, which implies a rapid processes of new information technologies and communication are changing the way of developing, acquiring and transmitting knowledge. In my opinion these have been a successful experience and opportunity, specifically on education to get better learning, benefits and potential quality in all education levels, breaking the barriers of space, time, and culture. Nowadays the technologies are essential.
In the first place the technology facilitates the communication between the teachers and their students due to the existence of platforms, for example, in some subjects we use the web “u-cursos” to keep the contact about questions or doubts, know the information that we need for study and marks that we have. Also there are courses or classes that teaching online in which the teacher and student contact at the same time and possibly a big distance, sharing knowledge, learning, discussing and resolving doubts.
Secondly, we use programs as Stata, SPSS or E-views in some subjects: statistics and methods to investigation. In these cases the technology is a fundamental tool to carry out the results and make an explanation of investigation problems. Besides the technologies, specifically internet, allow us the access to work material and support to complement the study material (papers, books, webpages, research,etc.), therefore, these sources of information, facilitating the acces to computers and programs in the school, are helping the students to learn easier than before and reducing the cost and time. For example, when we use data show to expose a work.
Finally, the student are more motivated when they use technology, they has a high interest in them because using computers and radiod due to the class are interactive between us and with the teacher. They make learning more permanent, that is to say, the technology offers a real or practical experiences that stimulates the students activity . For instance, the practical use of English programs or writting blogs encourage the participation of members of class while a written interaction.
In conclusion the technologies exist to attend the needs of human, at the same time they contribute to develop of them and increase the knowledge, making integration among the members of university and progress for the stability of education in the future. Despite of there are still challenges to meet over the development of technologies, they have contributed in big percentage in improving the characteristics of university's education. These opinions are reflected in the EGGP too, because despite the implementation of new computer rooms and use of internet in some classes and programs, we need more and better use of technology.

Some shocking news that happened this year...
Hello bloggers!
I expect that you be well and have enjoyed last weekend previously the global tests. Today I’m going to comment news of what happened this year and and have a big impact on me.
Some of those news were the transplants failed of Felipe Cruzat and Diego Poblete. They had different stories of life and different families, however, they passed for similar situations. I followed their stories in TV and sometimes I tried to understand why these things happened.
Felipe, who was 11 years old, had waiting more than two months a heart for him, because he had a cardiac insufficiency. In an occasion the doctors put in it an artificial heart to give him more time while a new liver appeared, but in the end his body didn’t resist the long time and died.
Diego Poblete was 12 years and was from Los Ángeles. He had waiting a liver, because he suffered a fulminanting hepatitis and was maintained hospitalized for six months. In this case don’t exist an artificial organ to replace a livier and the doctors operated him several times, but his body didn’t accept these organs. Finally, he died too.
These stories remember us the importance to be a donor of organs, to be conscious, because for this way you can give an opportunity to live someone else. Also is neccessary the contribution of a law of donation of organs to support it and an effective and transparent system of transplants. Many people are dying unnecessarily; this is called of attention for all the chileans.
In my case I will be a donor of organs and my family knows it, I think the desperation that the family feels when a member passes for this situation and I would like that they were helped me.
Another fact that impact on me was the death of Diego Schmidt-Hebbel, an economist who was murdered by an person contracted by Maria del Pilar Perez, “The Quintrala”, to realize the attempt. Also she was involved by the death of her ex-husband and his couple! How can a person be so merciless, denaturalized and so cruel with her own family and not to repent? I will never understand it.
Many other things happened this year in different aspects of the life and that were a bigger impact for all us...
I hope that things as that I wrote don’t repeat again.
Greetings

Challenges in my discipline
Hello everebody! Today I’m going to talk about an important topic in my discpline as a public manager. I think that we have a lot of challenges to solve in differents areas in which we will work.
First, about the technology in public environment. In my opinion, it is a fundamental tool to develop and facilitate the mechanism of administration, because it makes the access easier for the people to politics and decisions that affect them. I believe that the government is trying to implement good and more ways for the transparency in management, but they are insufficient yet.
Secondly, in social matters I think that last government has assigned a big part of the national resources for it, they have increased the social protection programs, benefits and subsidies. But I prefer to believe that there exist many objectives to carry out, because the poverty and opportunities of social mobility are still very few.
About the education field, we have a lot of unresolved things, for instance, the quality of it in the primary and secondary education. Many people say that we are better than before, but quantity doesn’t mean quality. Another case is the superior education, in Chile the public education is so expensive in comparison with other countries, for example, in Argentina public education is free. The demands for a better education isn’t a distant objective, we have to solve right now for next years could be better.
Some alternatives that could be effective according a public manager are implement system for get better teachers, it means, that they ought to have a excellence education and have the vocation or patience to teach theri students. For this, the responsible managers have to assure the qualification of them.
Also, a good idea for get better results in education, could be to reduce the numbers of students in a classroom. For this way the students would be more observed and pay attention. The incentives that the municipality gives them to motives to study, they have to give them for good marks and not only for socioeconomic conditions.
For me the challenges are the things that you can make in the future with the economic and human resources and which are unresolved yet. In the public administration these issues are very important to satisfy the people’s needs, according to what they are asking .
An insteresting topic which require more time to solve.

Improving my faculty facilities
Hello!
Today I’m going to talk about my faculty. I’m studying at second year in INAP, this abbreviation means Public Affairs Institute. The Government Schools where I’m studying depends of INAP, which is in a management restructuring for get more and better conditions for their students and members.
Something that the process has considered is the excellence of the teachers for the Government School, an important point for get quality and prestigious. For this the Institute invite tender and selection the person most qualified and with better skills to work in it. In think that it’s a good way to improve the structure of INAP and Government School, but on occasions, competent people are outside of the selection because they haven’t a master or another degree. Also the authorities decided to make changes about the subjects for next year, and get better professionals and public managements.
Related with the student I believe that immediate needs that we have are in an infrastructure dimension, for instance the space for study or have a lunch is small for many students. Maybe the people could think that these things are shallow, but are very necessary too.
Last year the students of School Government were on strike around a month due to these reasons. Finally, we get a change in the point of view about us and also they fixed some spaces and solve some management trouble. I believe the formal participation of students is a good mode to keep contacts with the authorities and get consensus about our needs. This is the first step.
A recommendation for us is to keep the behavior to express our opinion, contribute with more ideas and pay attention in the process.
The INAP and Government School situation is directly related with the national context about education an interesting and important topic for discuss.
Greetings
