Changes to my study programme


Despite the fact that i like the study program of my career, i would change the way the evaluations are done. I think that we should have a lot more technique formation and less exams, because I really believe that the best way of learn is like wash yourself with the knowledge. Also I think that we should have more moments to create groups of study, because they are a great moment to learn things from others and to create a better study environment with the classmates. Other point that I don’t like are the face-to-face classes, I mean, there are some people who travel from places that are two hours away of the faculty and have to make a lot of effort to be in the classes at 8:30 am. I would prefer a system where you could go to the classes, but you could also watch them online, in a live broadcast or something like that.
Talking about the facilities of the faculty and the classrooms, I would really like to have a more quiet air conditioner in the “aularios” (block with classrooms), because is really distracting have that kind of spaceship sound in the middle of the class, or some kind of air conditioner in the classrooms of the faculty, because Is awful when is hot outside and we have like a million grades (Celsius, we don’t use the awful english metric system) inside the classroom.
I think that’s all, like I said at the beginning despite all I really like how things work at my career.

An expert that i admire


Very important person in the career that I am studying is Uwe Kramp. He is a humanist psychologist and, for what I know, an important person in the career. He is a really, really tall and skinny man. When you first meet him, he looks like a really serious guy but when you get to know him, he is kind and funny. I noticed this in the second subject I took with him, which was psychology of the personality. In this subject his classes where super funny and enjoyable, and he looked really entertained at doing them. On the other side, his classes in the first subject I had with him (social investigation methodologist) where like one of the most borings things that I have been.  I think that was because the subject and the things that he thought there where boring.
I am really happy to know this teacher and expert in the field and every time I see him in the campus I get close to say hi and have a talk.
That’s all, bye J
