Post 7: CHANGES TO MY STUDY PROGRAMME

-

 I don't think I would make changes in the curriculum, at least not in branches because I feel I don't have enough experience yet to be able to say which branches I think maybe don't add much.

I think that five years, in the case of psychology, studying a degree, not counting the years of specialization, is a long time, but at the same time I also think that if it were less time, perhaps we would not be able to see the necessary material. If we talk about the workload, I would decrease it in order to be able to dedicate the adequate time to each subject, in this way we will not have the need to leave books unread or subjects unstudied. I would also make more classes but of less time duration, for example we currently have classes that last from 10:15 to 13:30 and what I propose is to have more classes but distributed during the week and that last 45 minutes.

I cannot say what I would change about the infrastructure of the university since I have not been able to get to know it due to the pandemic. I find that the current use of technology is already very helpful and I don't think we need more, since we have a lot of access to everything and I find that great, maybe if we use technology so that people with functional diversities can integrate in a better way.

Finally I find that the teaching methods I would love to have more variety but I find that at least in our career the teaching methods applied by our professors is very good.

Post 4: What's like to study psychology ?

I am a psychology student and I decided to study psychology because I feel and believe that it is a career that focuses on helping people, that fascinates me, it would leave my heart full to know that I can help someone feel better, also to feel that I contribute a grain of sand to create a better world and also I find the mind and human behavior very interesting, it is fascinating. Psychology has many options of specialization and that also makes me like it a lot, some examples of that are clinical psychology, labor psychology, educational psychology, legal psychology, forensic psychology, etc.   Studying online I find that it is very difficult, since it is more difficult to concentrate because there are many distractions compared to face-to-face classes, for example the television, the noise that can be in the house, being all locked up trying to do their own thing. It is super complicated to make friends at the university or at least it was more difficult for me compared to what

Post 1: A country you would like to visit

I would like to go to Cuba because I would love to visit my uncles and cousins who are from there. I know that their food is very good, that the people are very loving, they like to dance a lot, in fact I know a lot about Cuba because my dad is from there. I would like to go to their beaches, go out dancing, go to Old Havana, to their museums, etc. In 2018 I thought about going to study there but the style and quality of life is very different compared to Chile. Although I love its culture and it is a beautiful country it is not a place where I would like to work or live, because at the country level it is in a very complicated situation, there is a very big social discontent, it is difficult to find medicine, transportation is difficult to take, it is difficult to find certain types of food, the internet connection is very little and it is also very expensive, etc. So I find that it is a nice country to go as a tourist but not to live there.

Post 3: Mental health Problems related to a lockdown

  With the measures of being isolated in order to manage COVID 19 I have felt my stress and anxiety increase, especially frustrated about not being able to go to college. This has caused me to feel chest pains, shortness of breath, grief, wanting to eat more food than my body needs, and having a lot of trouble falling asleep. What helps me to cope with this confinement is to support myself with the people I live with, talk to my friends, my boyfriend and my partner. It also helps me a lot to have other activities like reading a book, cooking and meditating. I feel that the pandemic has made us reflect on how important it is for human beings to socialize, how important it is to live each day to the fullest because we do not know what may happen tomorrow and it has also forced us to look at ourselves and take charge of ourselves. The plans I have when the pandemic or quarantine is over are to go back to college, to be able to play sports like before, to see the people I love and to
