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.

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.

About free Time
Hello bloggers! Today I’m going to talk about free time.
I believe that the people nowadays don’t have the necessary time for themselves, because the life rhythm that they have don’t let it. In many times the family and the children don’t see their parents during all the day and they can’t share and keep a conversation about their lives. I disagree with the people say that the technology available contribute to do the things easier or faster than before, because at the same time that the technology develops, the burden of work increases too.
In my position I haven’t much time in the week to spend on entertainment or different things that don’t relate with the university, because in this period I have to study a lot for the final tests. Well, frequently I use my free time for resting in my house. I like to watch TV or films with my family or my friends too, also I enjoy using the computer and keep conversations about different topics. Sometimes, only sometimes I get out with my friends or my sister like go for an ice cream during the weekend or visit my other familiar .
I’m trying to use my free time wisely, but normally it’s difficult for me carry on the plans that I made because on occasions other important things appear and you can’t excuse of it. My parents give advice about it, but they haven’t the same burden than me.
If I would have more free time I think that I would spend it in things that I really enjoy like go to the theatre or concerts, have a friend reunion or go to a party or go to the cinema and a lot of things that you don’t remember when you are so busy. Something that I hope to do it is read a list of interesting books that I saved last holidays.
In conclusion at the presents the people don’t have time that they want for themselves, overall they complain the system for the stress that they have. Certainly I think that when you wish something you can do it despite their jobs or studies if you organize your time in hours, days weeks or months and get a metod for it.
I enjoyed writing in this opportunity…

Britain to send more troops to Afghanistan, Gordon Brown confirms.
In this opportunity I’m going to talk about an article of the Guardian.
This article expresses the opinion of Gordon Brown, the prime minister of UK, about the 500 troops which will send to Afghanistan. According with his words at the beginning he was agree with the decision, because it is a contribution for the assurance and protection against the terrorism. The announcement was made after a question round in which it was exposed the worry about the killed troops and the disagreement with increase the soldiers in danger. He said that this is an important topic and “Nothing can erase the pain for their families”, the sacrifice that he men had made won’t forgot. But he insisted that the British troops kept in Afghanistan to "protect the streets of Britain" of the threat of al-Qaida.
After he referred to the reasons that they have for sending the troops to Afghanistan, he mentioned that exist a commitment between Britain and Afghanistan for getting better training for their troops. Also he excuses saying that the veterans and soldiers will have an excellent metal health attention and the conditions for it, when they return to home.
In conclusion the prime minster of Britain is agree with the decision and justified with argument of national assurance and commitment with the Afghan nation. Also this "coincide" with news from United States and the troops that their will send to Afghanistan.

World of sport
Hi bloggers!
I’m going to talk about the importance of sport in our lives. In spite of I’m not practice any discipline of sport, sometimes when I have time I go to aerobics class, in the gymnasium of the university, I had gone for four months and I really feel better than before, because in this time I relax and enjoy between the classes (talking in a psychological aspect), the stress get out. But in point of view of the health, it keep me in wave and in my future I will have less possibilities of suffer an illness related with the cardiac system, muscles and bones. In a national platform I feel that the sport isn’t relevant thing in the Chilean lives, because the statistics indicate that the people don’t make exercise two or three times in a week like the doctors and experts say. Overall the people don’t predict the consequences that this behavior could have and don’t hear the news respect to this.
Talking about the level that sport presents in Chile, we have distinguished people who represent us in the international competitions like Kristel Köbrich in swimming, Fernando González and Nicolás Massu in tennis, however, they are a few. Is necessary that the people acquire the conscience about the relevancy and take the tools that the government have implemented and the opportunities that they have near in some organizations… and the best way to get it is with our example.
In other perspective I think that exists some “sports” which I don’t agree like “rodeo a la chilena”, because it affects and use the animals for get fun and finally it don’t pass a good time. Others activities that some people consider a sport is the hunting, I believe this people haven’t discernment. How can they be able to kill an animal? I can't understand them.
