  During this semester, my favorite subject has been Basic principles of learning . The subject is famous because it has a high percentage of disapproval. Also, it is a polemic subject because it works with non-humans animals, especially with rats. In fact, you can find some graffiti’s in relation to the Speciesism and animal ethics in leaning laboratory. The teachers in charge of the subject investigate the bond between the principles of learning and behavior and psychotherapeutic advances, that is, the dialog between basic and applicate investigation.   The content of the subject consist in two main points: Pavlovian conditioning and instrumental conditioning. The first of them is referred to the learning of signals and the second one to the learning of consequences (the reinforcements increases the frequency of the response, however, the punishments decreases it). Besides, the different leaning processes are put to the test in the laboratory: we can choose humans or rats to co

  Humberto Maturana is a biologist dedicated to the study of relations between life systems. He was born on September 14, 1928 (like my mother, except for the year) and he made all his theoretical and experimental work in Universidad de Chile. The most relevant work of Humberto Maturana is contained in his works The tree of knowledge and Autopoiesis and cognition . Nowadays, Maturana and his collaborators represent the idiosyncratic area known as biology of knowing .   With the collaboration of his student Francisco Varela, Maturana created and described the concept of “autopoiesis”, the one that basically consists in the feature of a system to maintain and reproduce itself. Maturana y Varela (1973, p. 69) defined autopoiesis:   “An autopoietic machine is a machine organized (defined as a unity) as a network of processes of production (transformation and destruction) of components which: (i) through their interactions and transformations continuously regenerate and realize the

  Guillermo Calderón is a Chilean dramatist dedicated to political drama. The most distinguished writing of his are Escuela , Villa , Discurso , Clase and Mateluna . He studied teatro in Universidad de Chile and then he completed a Master in New York.   Escuela and Mateluna are two works related to the guerrilla groups during the dictatorial regime in Chile. The first of them narrates how operated some of the guerrilla groups to fight the oppression, his strategies and the risk of participate in this groups. With the goal of collect documents to complete the first step of the dramaturgic investigation, Guillermo Calderón and his company interviewed ex frontier called Jorge Mateluna. He delivered information about the techniques and the political scene of the military dictatorship from a struggling perspective.   After of the premiere of “Escuela”, Jorge Mateluna was unfairly arrested, perhaps to sentence his past like a member of FPMR (He was accused of being guilty of bank assa

  This photo means so much to me. You can see a beautiful, smart and talented woman. Her name is Carey Lander and she was part of the indie and twee pop band Camera Obscura , specifically she played the synthesizer and she was the principal chorus girl. I write in past because she died on October 11, 2015; four years after her cancer diagnosis.   After she found out about her illness, she entered to an organization ( Sarcoma UK ) that collects money to help people with osteosarcoma, an aggressive malignant neoplasm in a bone (a type of primary bone cancer). Lander created a page for Sarcoma UK in order to raise awareness of the disease and lack of funding for research and treatment. Until now (October 30, 2017), the campaign has collected £102,99. In consequence, she was a responsible and sensible woman; all that you can see in the picture.   Like a curiosity, if you look every photo of Carey, you could find an effective source of serenity, love and happiness. In the case of you

  Exactly three months ago Belle and Sebastian launched a new single called We were beautiful , a song that get closer to the classic style of the band than their latest album Girls in Peacetime Want To Dance . Two weeks ago, a new surprise: a warm song called I’ll be your pilot . What does mean the media movements of the band?   Like an attempt to calm the vehement questions of the fans; Stuart Murdoch, the vocalist of the band, report in an interview that three new EP’s going to arrive soon (the first EP going to be available on December 8 th ); and each one of them will contain approximately five songs. In an adorable gesture, Belle and Sebastian included the faces of lucky (and British, of course) fans in the sleeves of the little albums (that will conform a big album called How to solve our human problems ).   I have many expectations about the content and rhythms of the songs (I especially hope a song performed by Sarah Martin, my favorite member of the band). I really can

My favorite piece of technology are the headphones, because is the means to listening to my music and to live the experience to stay closer to my dear bands. I used every day my headphones, and when that didn’t happen, probably it will not be a good day.    Now, I am going to talk about one of those bad days:  when I forgot my headphones in some classroom. When I realized of it, I felt terrible because I didn´t know what had happened with them. Later, I thought about the places where I could find my valued headphones… but nothing! Fortunately, I remembered that I was in the Aularios during the morning and like a datum: I always keep my belongings under the tables. With that feeling, I went to talk with the Aularios’ assistants and they allowed me to come into the classroom. Despite my pessimism, I amazingly found my headphones safe and sound. Since of that trouble, I look after my headphones like a saint bone.   

Hello, today I will tell you about my vocational journey until now. During my childhood, I maintained a special interest in science areas like biology and chemistry; consequently I thought that my academic destiny would continue in University programs of health care or “hard sciences”. In my adolescence, my vocational crisis appeared: ¿What I prefer? ¿Medicine, Arts or Pedagogy? The future would bring me something unexpected.   When I saw my first score in PSU, I does not what to do. However, I had listened of a University program that could resolve my vocational problem: “Bachillerato”. Then I entered it.  My first experience in University was amazing, I learned about many new subjects, like psychology, sociology, economics or laboratory works. Besides, I remember with love the new affective relations that I made and the integral space where “Bachi” is based.    But, ¿what happened with the vocational crisis? It was a hard decision because I enjoy a lot of topics, which I co

Hello, i am Horacio Andrés Román Navarro i came from Curacaví, Santiago and i have lived there all my life: a "born and raised". I was born in November, therefore i am Scorpio (It was a premature birth, and unfortunately I could have been Sagittarius). I like to say that I am a timid person, however, your impression relating me it could be different. Finally, like a particularity, I am an only child. In my free time, I enjoy read, especially Hispano-American literature (my favourite author until now is José Donoso) and dramaturgy in his classic and emergent version. Also, I like to go to the theater and cinema, and then do critical texts about it (visit in web the page “Jóvenes Críticos GAM”). Besides, my favourites bands are Belle and Sebastian and Camera Obscura , which coincidently came from Glasgow, Scotland.
