Blog 3: My favorite piece of technology

Hi everyone!

Today we are talking about technology :) I think my favorite piece of technology is my iPod. I use it all the time to listen to music and it's almost like a companion to me. I've had it since 2013, so that is about 8 years. I always use it on the way to work, if I'm walking or taking the bus or the metro. It entertains me during long and tedious trips. I also use it when I go out on long walks throughout the city (I've walked to the Parque Bicentenario from Santiago) At home, I use it to read because it keeps me focused, which I know sounds weird because music usually distracts people. Something very weird is that I try to listen to a full album when I go on long trips or when I read. I love using my iPod even though it is very old and I recommend using it or a MP3 player because by using them you have more space on your cellphone :)








Now it's your turn!

Blog 6: How Can Your Major/Career Make the World a Better Place

Hi everybody :) Today we are going to talk about how your major can make the world a better place. I think teachers can make the world a better place by showing things that students normally don't see on TV. But to do that also may mean to teach things that the school authorities wouldn't like us teaching to students like for example, teaching about feminism and how racism works economically. In the case of English teaches, I think we have to remember that nothing is neutral and therefore we have to take positions on many things, especially the role of the United States in the world. In class, I try to use materials that show how the United States has negatively influenced the world (think how Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship was supported by the USA). Also, it's important to show that English isn't just from the USA or England, but also from many Caribbean countries (like we have seen in class) and many African countries, as well. I think that teaching English is go...

Blog 7: A Career-Related Website OR an Expert in Your Field

Hi everyone, I hope all is well with you. Today, we are going to talk about a career related website OR an expert in your field of study. I can't think of one specific website, so I will talk about a couple I use. One is the New Yorker Magazine, here is where I take short-stories that I use for class. Some of my favorite English-language writers have written in this magazine like Jamaica Kincaid, Junot Díaz, and Edwidge Danticat. The only problem about the website is that after like 6 monthly visits they want to charge you :( Another website I like is The Nation Magazine, it is a progressive American magazine where you can get good news from. I have used articles from this magazine in other courses to talk about certain current events like the right-wing protests in Venezuela last year. Lastly, there is Zinn Education Project, Howard Zinn is the author of the book, "People's History of the United States" which is exactly what the name says hahahaha. The website is goo...
