Blog 5: Changes to my study program

 Hi everyone!

Today I´m going to write about changes that I would like to do to my study program. 

About the subjects that I have to study, I would like to add more biology contents, focus more on the biological process of our body and how that affects in our mental health, because I think that it´s very important at the time to doing therapy, and the university is more focus on the social aspects from the pacient, so I believe that we need a balance between both features.

Another thing that I would like to change in the university is based on the faculty facilities. I think that the faculty needs more green areas, because it could helps a lot with stress and relaxing for the students. Also, I would like to do more facilities to study, like libraries or places to work in groups, because there are a few in the university and we need more space to do this activity.

Another thing to change in the program is based on the practicity of our subjects. I think it´s very important to work with people since first year of Psychology, to have better skills when we will finished the career, also because we can realize in this way if we like more some area in the career or another, and this will help to us to know where we want to work in the future.

I think that it´s a lot to change in Psychology, but identify the things that we can improve it´s a big step to make changes in the future. 

That was my blog, thanks for reading!

    Hi Valentina! I agree with the idea of have more green areas and study rooms, and I found really interesting and important that we should work with people since the first year because we have only had the theoretical and not the practical area of the career. Thank you for your blog :)

    Hi Valentina! I think it is important what you mention about the subjects being more practical and being able to work with people from the first year because I think it is true that it would make it much easier to know which area of psychology is the one that interests us the most.

    Hi Valentina. I don´t study psychology, but at some point I thought about studying it and i find you absolutely right. I also believe that there must be a balance between the biological and social aspects of patients. It would be a great change in academia and in the profession.

    Hi Valentina, I agree with you in your opinion about some changes that could be done, especially in the idea of the need of more subjects related to biology. Since we have neurophysiology I became more interested in this area and I noticed how important it is to understand psychological processes.

Blog 6: English Language Challenge

Imagen
Hi everyone! In this case, I´m going to write about my experience learning English at university. I think English here is so much better than the school, because there I just learnt about grammar and not so much about talking, listening or writing, so I preffer English at university because it´s more fluid and I could improve my English skills by talking with classmates or seeing a video. I believe that the thing that I like most of the program is the social aspect that the classes have, including themes like racism, feminism and othe topics that makes the class more enjoyable and funny. I believe that the use of blogs is very helpful, because it´s difficult to me to write in English, sometimes I know how to say a word but I don´t know how to write it haha, so the blogs were very helpful in that way for me.   I think that I need to improve writing, because it still is difficult to me and I think that a great way to improve this is mix listening with writing, maybe when I liste...

Blog 1: A country I would like to visit

Hi! My name is Valentina and I would talk about the country that I would like to visit the most, Thailand. I want to go to this country because I'm really interest in their culture, and I think that they have beautiful landscapes, specially the Phi-Phi islands, which I think that it's the place that I want to visit more in there, but I want to visit the capital of the country too, Bangkok. I want to be really involved in they culture, know more about the religion because the Buddism is the most relevant religion there, and I wanna learn more about it, the traditions like the anual festival "Loy Krathong" in Chiang Mai, (the second city that I want to visit the most) and another celebrations, and (obviously) eat a lot of traditional Thai food. I hope to go there for six months to a year, to know better the culture and the traditions, and also to travel a lot and see lots of lovely landscapes. I expect not to work there and just enjoy the visit to the country, but if I ...

Blog 2: The best vacation ever

Imagen
 Hi everybody! I´m going to talk about my best vacations ever. The best vacations that I ever had was in 2017. I went to the south of Chile. It was for two weeks, and I went with my parents. It was really beautiful because I want to travel there since I was a kid, but I didn´t have the oportunity to go before, and as a family we never did a trip for that long before, and so far too. The best part that I visited was Huilo Huilo, which i´ts a biological reserve, and it has a big forest, animals from that zone and waterfalls. Also, I went to Villarica, and we went to see the volcano and we did trekking there. We met Pucon too, and we stayed in this beautiful cabin closet o te river. It was a really good experience to live with my family, and I hope that we can do that trip again (without covid please hahah), and visit other places near too, like Valdivia.
