Changes to the Archaeology programme


Imagen relacionada

In the programme of archaeology of university of chile, everyone first have to do a basic cicle, where it supposes that you learn about everything related with the three speccifics mentions, and is a way to do that all the students have the same basis, focused on a social way of do our work. Since the third year we have specific classes of the mention that we choose and I think that in that moment it seems that everyone forget the social focus and in archaeoly the only important thing are prehistorics studies with the same methods and theories of 20 or 10 years ago. 

I think that is necessary a change in our programs, we have excellent teachers and class in some cases, but we need learn new things and the way of use it in our future jobs, because outside our country, the traditional archaeology’s methods  everyday are less important. The way of thinking and technologies clearly change, but in our classes, sometimes only tells us this things but don’t teach us really about it, I mean in practice.

And I think that is not necessary to say that the infrastructure is so poor that, of course, innovations in the study programme are  completely dificcult, this year the university preffered do a new building for the students of postgrades studies while they are less than us. 

Five long years to graduate and notice that there are a lot of things that you son’t have Idea but your boss is asking to do, because you graduate of one of the best universities in the country, but they don't know that there are a lot of things that you saw and knew for the first time when you started to work.

    Well, the sad truth. Our university has to really attend this topics, and it's also a mission to us like students to demand this changes.

My favourite type of movie

Be in the university is a completely challenge, the pressure of good marks and all the things to read and learn do that the free time doesn't exist, so when a have a weekend or even a single day in the week to relax and do anything that I like, watch a movie is always a good option, but not any type, for me is good if that makes me think in other kind of things different from that I learn in class. So a movie that makes me laugh is perfect, but also I prefer that it is related at some level with reality, because I really hate that kind of comedy that is based in hurts the feelings of the people that are different for every reason, like comments or jokes related with racism. When comedy is accompanied with drama or romance is even better, especially if this is exaggerated and creates ridiculous situations for the characters, but at the end teaches us about clichés that no one questions, because think that aren’t real, just a creation of the director, but actually the inspir

My four dogs

My parents loves animals since I was a child, I remember they teach me about animals and how  they can suffer in the same way as humans and that they are just adorable and completely loyal to their owners.So that was how we ended with four dogs in our house, each have an special story. Our first dog is called dhanna and after years that our first dog died, we decided to have another, but we don't believe in bought animals when outside are lot of beautiful dogs without home, so one day my mother and my little brother went to "Feria" and there was a man giving away dogs, so my brother choose one and brought her to our house. After going to a party I returned to my house with a dog that was in the square outside the house where we were, that dog now is called toko is the most adorable thing that has happened to my life, when I saw her she was malnourished and she walked weird and she just was a small thing alone in the middle of the night, after everything that

My future job

Imagen
Like I always say, I’m not sure about my future in general, but I must admit that sometimes I feel desperate because all the people do always the same questions about jobs and money and opportunities and that kind of things, but none ask about what makes me happy and actually  I’m not sure about archaeology’s jobs, I feel that are too traditional for what I want.  I learn that for an archaeologist exist a limits job’s opportunities, that are investigation or environmental impact , for the first one is necessary have a lot of knowledge about a specific area and it’s completely difficult get projects, so that’s an option that takes a lot time and I feel that doesn’t have a social role, because the only import things are show the results in a congress  to other scholars and that's it. Well, environmental impact is not very different, the only thing that change is that you sell your soul to huge company, so the communities are the last thing important in that case.
